How to copy and paste effects between clips in Adobe Premiere Pro

What if I told you that you could copy and paste effects between clips in the timeline in Premiere Pro without even moving the mouse cursor?

Well, this is totally possible, and to do this, you just need to learn a few keyboard shortcuts.

How to copy effects only using the keyboard

First, move between clips with the “up arrow” or “down arrow” on your keyboard, move to the clip you want to copy attributes from, click “cmd + C” to copy and this is where it gets interesting.

Move to the clip in the timeline you want to paste your attributes or effects on, then click “opt + cmd + V” and now, in the popup window, click “Tab” to toggle between the attributes, click the “spacebar” to select or deselect it, toggle down to “OK” and click the spacebar again to confirm.

Your selected effects are now copied and pasted, only using your keyboard.
