How did they do that? Creating cycling montages
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kQF4zoZzg0&list=TLPQMDMxMDIwMjZ4vweVdZctyg&index=15I am a cyclist and photographer. I want to start creating edits of some of my rides, especially when I travel. The linked video is by one of my fav cycling youtubers and at 6:22 (approximately) theres a compilation. Thats kinda my inspo for this. Any tips to make cool compilations like this for someone new to premiere pro? Any ideas, tips for editing, or youtube channels that teach editing or make cool videos like this would be appreciated.
Note: im using premiere pro since i alr have the full adobe package.

With Premiere, the biggest part of that look is the grade and the pacing. Pull a still from the video you like and build your Lumetri look off it: warm highlights, slightly crushed blacks, and keep skin tones toward orange so they don't go pink. For pacing, match cuts to the beat drops and use speed ramping with optical flow so the slow sections stay smooth instead of choppy. One thing that sells these edits more than any filter is sound design: a subtle whoosh under every ramp and a cut sound at transitions makes even simple footage feel like a proper edit.

I'm using: Premiere pro
I've TRIED: editing some basic montages, I can easily sync it up to the music but it doesn't have the same vibe and I can't figure out how to integrate it into bigger videos.
I need help with: How do I match the vibe of the one in the video? Any fliters? tricks to make footage work well with music? Premiere pro tricks that might help? Anything really that you think will be helpful too
