One of the functions of Adobe Premiere that i have never previously used but have understood it’s invaluable characteristic within editing is the Duplication tool. The short cut for this function is shift+Cmd+/ . What i find so valuable about this function is that clips need to be saved as a back up. Furthermore, clips need duplication if being reused in two different sections within the film.

Another function of Adobe Premiere is Grouping. The short cut for this function is Cmd+G. What is so valuable about this is that groups of clips sometimes need to be moved across the time line so as to edit another element within the clips. It is primarily a time saving tool in my opinion.
