IDEA 💡 Why not suggest saving all the folder structure as an empty TEMPLATE and then every time you start a new project you save even more time by just copying this structured template and then renaming it so all the small folders inside are already done and ready to go?
And also what about working with references in master projects, so we avoid duplicate hard drive space copying same music, same sound effects, same hidef intro footage, etc.? Ok, if we deliver to somebody, that person get full copy but not duplicating our storage unnecessarily.
That was my first thought after a few seconds. Even if some folders will stay empty for a specific project it’s always the same structure. That’s how did it for my projects outside Adobe.
@@mariocarnival Certainly. I consider to go like this though. This allows me to have ongoing projects on my laptop while finished will be moved to a hard drive at home. As I understood from the video I can move around projects :)
This answered so many questions that I've been running into with organizing my videos. I use a lot of assets, and get tired of rummaging through my folders looking for things. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the idea of creating a sequence of the best selections. Thank you so much for putting this out there!
Thanks for sharing the tips. Unfortunately I'll have to point out that it's a somewhat outdated system. And it only works with scripted/scene based edits. A lot of times, especially with docu/fashion/ reality. The camera just never stop rolling. So you can't really set and in-out point on one clip. There often has MANY moments that can be selected from a clip. So the best way to do it is to put all of them in one sequence and make lifts.
Very good video, didactical and straight to the point. I particularly liked the tip about the sequences holding selections of markers, very useful. Thanks and keep the good work!.
Hello Ignace, hope you’re doing fine. The video is very teaching, thanks for this 👍💪 i am an absolute beginner in this topic. my experience was that moving footage from one place to another after the composition and export Adobe Pr tells you that it’s searching for the data. In my case that was no problem, but I assume that’s it’s very elementary to leave the footage where it was when creating the video. Is that right? Or what is your recommendation? Thanks for taking care of my question 😃🌞✌️
I have about 4TB of footage, so i need to keep it on my external drive. Do you keep these folder on your computer or your external drive with the footage? thanks
hi Ignace Aleya.. I really want to try editing in proxy. recently im shooting in different frame rates in the same camera and same folder on the memory card. examp i use A6500 1080 60p for A-ROLL and 1080 120p for B-ROLL. Im strugling how to sort the video file by frame rates so i can easily separate folder between A & B roll. if i do manually check 1 by 1 file property is quite exhausting. so first of all have you suggest a technique for sorting file like my case properly and effectively and then how to workflow editing multiple frame rates in proxy. i've been watching your tutorial video and never skip . its fantastic .. thanks
What is the software to record the screen with this amazing quality ? I try to use Camtasia and Expression Encoder with different setting but the render is not like you. Please someone help me. Good job for this video, I appreciate your professionalism !
i have some Adobe folders stored in my documents folder, they're like 14.0 and 15.0 folders. would it be ok to delete these folders in order to delete all the old files?
What if you want more than one section of a clip? Then the In/Out approach wouldn't work, correct? You'd have to make another copy of the footage for that second section?
This is great advice. Thank you for sharing. I'm trying to do what you recommend at 7:06 (adding trimmed clips to my "drone selection" sequence), but instead of adding it to the timeline on my "drone selection" sequence, each clip creates a new sequence. Am I doing it wrong? UPDATE: Okay, I just figured out what I was doing wrong. :-P I'm supposed to drag the additional clips to the "timeline" and not "create a new item". Thanks again for all the great advice! :-) This is by far the best tutorial I have come across on this topic.
Very helpful for me but if you could slow down just a bit for us old guys who are new that would help. Pausing and rewinding a lot to keep up is tough. Rang the bell!
Thanks for the great video. I have a question, do you have one storage folder containing all the video you've taken on a particular day or trip and then use the above folder structure to copy across the videos you've selected to work on as part of a project?
Interesting workflow. Actually it is pretty similar to mine. Only difference is that I make the folder structure once and then I just copy paste it everytime I create a new project. Is this still your current workflow? Maybe you can give us an update? Thumbs up for your video 👍
That was a good video! Keeping things organized certainly helps a lot. I started video editing as a hobby so there is no organization at all :D Also, I am one of those who drags the video to the timeline and then starts removing the unnecessary parts :)
Insteed of putting DAY 1 DAY 2 in Footage i start with the project name/date/footage and so on and in date i put footage; audio; assets etc. Other than that, this is exactly how i sort my files for easy navigation :)
OMG, that is a lot of organizing. I just collect sounds in one folder, effects in another and sort video files by date. What I was hoping for is how to organize a project that also includes a script, scriptwriting, searching for locations, how to film a script, how to check whether your footage is ready to be put together in a video etc.
So, if you use same music loops for ten different projects, you make ten copies of that music for every project folder??? Easy and portable but duplicating hard drive spaces unnecessarily is not a good workflow for me. What about using master projects?
Like the content, but you kind of rush through some items like how you are creating new timelines to eventually paste into your final timeline. Maybe I'm just a newbie and everyone knows this already.
That and he's doing all this while drag n drop editing his clips. Copying one clip form your selects and copying into your edit sequence is inefficient. I load my "selects" sequence into the source monitor and edit them down from there. Like editing a sequence into a sequence.
Could you help this Catalan journalist? How can I make a video (project) with specific time in Premiere? I mean 1 minute or 30 seconds, no more or less.
Sounds like a lot of good info but my head is spinning trying to keep up with what you're doing and clicking on. It's like the meth edition of folder creating, jumping so fast from on thing to another!!
I didn't find this to be particularly useful at all. Maybe this is the best way of doing things -- but I find it problematic that you didn't demonstrate a way to organize (or sift/present) every individual clip in a visual manner like the source monitor. If you're searching through a lot of footage, putting it on a timeline just seems slower than viewing it in a source monitor. I wonder if there is a system utilizing search bins and duplication of clips?

Amazing video Ignace!! This helped me a lot!
Thank you, Ignace Aleya, your video tutorial was very fun and easy to follow. Very helpful tips, can't wait to see more.
Thanks for your tips! I learned a lot.
Awesome. Exactly what I needed. Tx.
Nice tips, it's really useful. Thank you
Thank you. This really helped me
dude, i see you create lot of folders. Here you have some great tip: use keyboard shortcut: ctrl+shift+N (that creates new folder)
you're welcome ;)
Nice additional tip!
you just changed my life thanks man
well explained! Thank you bro
Great tip to start with the windows folders first. Helps a lot!
Useful shortcut for Windows 10 >> New folder - Ctrl + Shift + N

I was just thinking about this how one clip might have many moments we want to use. Can you elaborate more on lifts? What exactly are lifts?
This was a really solid video. I found it to be indepth and thorough. I'll definitely utilize some of the concepts you discussed here. Thanks!

Thanks for the tips for organization! This will definitely help me as I get ready to learn and make my first video on Premiere Pro!
thanks for this tutorial but im waiting also how you export it,what is the output name,.the location of your saved project
I have about 4TB of footage, so i need to keep it on my external drive. Do you keep these folder on your computer or your external drive with the footage? thanks
Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for.
Awesome video mate, I already do some of it but you showed us some stuff I never even thought about. Keep it up!

You are simply making history. Thanks again master!
how did you get your bin folders to go straight up and down in premiere mine are slanted
awesome video
Nice one :)
When you recreated the folders in premiere, you could just drag the folders as if you were importing footage.
Didn't knew you were Dutch!
Nederland #1 !
Very nice video
hmm could also be from Belgium :o

Nieuwe map, lekker nederlands dus.
This was very helpful! I will try this next time when i work on a big project. :-D
You can use Post Haste to speed up that beginning file structure piece.
Please elaborate
That was a good video! Keeping things organized certainly helps a lot. I started video editing as a hobby so there is no organization at all :D Also, I am one of those who drags the video to the timeline and then starts removing the unnecessary parts :)

lovely thankyou!
how do you separate 4k from hd 120 fps without seeing in premiere first?
Original Designed that is a great question. Anyone?
This is great! helped me alot with my meme edits on my channel!!
Thx dude :) pls more of this Stuff! One question, do you have any Problems with PP CC 2017.1 ? Because It´s seems kind of buggy!
OMG, that is a lot of organizing. I just collect sounds in one folder, effects in another and sort video files by date.
What I was hoping for is how to organize a project that also includes a script, scriptwriting, searching for locations, how to film a script, how to check whether your footage is ready to be put together in a video etc.
gracias
you can stack the selection timeline and the final timeline like a pancake and import your selects very easily.
Where is the best place to find cool sound effects to use in video editing?
So, if you use same music loops for ten different projects, you make ten copies of that music for every project folder??? Easy and portable but duplicating hard drive spaces unnecessarily is not a good workflow for me. What about using master projects?
Like the content, but you kind of rush through some items like how you are creating new timelines to eventually paste into your final timeline. Maybe I'm just a newbie and everyone knows this already.

seems like inspired from Dope Motions After Effects video! is it?
