UPDATE: Importing now works with empty folders and folders with one item. This works for File: Import, Media Browser and Drag and Drop. As of Aug. 2023, it does not work with the Import Mode but will in the future.
🟥🟥🟥
There are huge benefits to begin each project by organizing your media into folders on the Desktop. Premiere Pro can automatically create Bins based on the folders you create helping you to instantly organize all your Projects.

I would like to see this video (which I have referenced many times) revisited six years on, taking in consideration changes in Pr. Thanks again!🙂
You definitely have a black belt in tutorials. Good job. As always.
Thanks! Now if only I could get my physical self wearing a black belt. :-)
the best teacher i have seen so far .GOD BLESS YOU
Thanks so much.
Great tutorial Colin. Every day there are *new* people just starting with Premiere and this tutorial will be a life saver for them. I was there at one time, and wish this tutorial was there to help me out. Thumbs up !
Thanks buddy.
I made a "standard folder" template with all the subfoldes i usually use, and it's as easy as copying and renaming that empty template folder every time a start a project. Just fill it up with media afterwards.
Great advice as always from you Colin.
That's great, just a little discipline to start and everything else flows into place.
I have no idea how I managed to miss this for so long. This changes everything. Fantastic video mate.
It hasn't always been a feature, maybe 5 years old?
More you can remained organized, the more energy you can focus on being creative - no doubt.
THANK YOU, THIS WAS A GREAT LITTLE VIDEO.
You're very welcome.
WOW! Is an understatement! Man, your tutorials makes me feel confident, that I somewhat know what the heck I'm doing now. I've found my go-to channel. And, your persona is non-intimidating. And, I never heard you brag about yourself. Just straight up easy, simple tutorials. I LOVE IT!
Thanks so much for your wonderful words of support. I really do appreciate it.
exactly! straight up easy, simple tutorials, while keeping the drama to a minimum but still not being boring.
OMG I do almost all of this. I feel smart today.
Then you have some good work habits!
Nice, Mr. Smith. This is something I learned the hard way. In my earlier days of film school, I was editing a short which was over 20 minutes long and had a lot of cuts. I did not organize the folders and it became one confused and idiotic experience. I wish my editing instructors explained this to me beforehand. But they didn't. And that is why you are awesome.
Thanks. We've all had Projects with a bit of disorganization.
Been a subscriber for some time now. Love the way you explain, you make it so easy. Thanks Col, I know first hand the time and effort that goes into content creating, much appreciated.
Thanks so much and you're right, few know just how much work it takes to put together shows like this.
this is such an important point to make. thanks fur dedicating a video to it! now for a comprehensive review if they new essential graphics panel.
Absolutely I will be doing several detailed tutorials on the Essential Graphics Panel but not for several months.
Check out some example titles on our Facebook page:
facebook.com/VideoRevealed/
thats great! I checked them it, I'm no longer intimidated by this.
Great video Colin!
That media browser function is awesome! Didn't know about it.
"you know who you are"
Haha, that's me. Thanks!!
Ha, ha. Well now you know and it will be a regular tool for you to use.
your videos and style to explain is the most amazing of any tutorial i found on youtube...GBU
Wow, thanks so much Noman, I really appreciate your kind words. 😍
Simple but handy trick. Glad I stuck through watching this as I was already doing most of what you described until you did the folder import at the end -- This will indeed make for a more orderly media folder inside Premiere going forward. Thank you for this tip sir.
You're very welcome and thanks for sticking around.
I have been editing for 4 years and I wish I logically organized my files this way. Thanks for this.
You're welcome.
Good advice. I actually created a batch script that creates a basic directory structure and you select the kind of projects and it creates the appropriate folders. It's really beneficial to have the same structure for every project and I even have a couple of more folders. For cache files and even for exporting. I also divide the footage into folders with regards to different scenes and Broll to organize it before even starting a project file in Premiere. Works like a charm and beneficial for transporting and backup.
Wow, that sounds like an amazing bit of work you did. Bravo!
I'd love to know more about how you did this. Difficult?
Nothing to do for you but just want to encourage you. You explain things well, in short time and reveal the expert tips.
More videos please!
Okay, thanks and I'll keep posting tutorials.
Great idea about keeping things organized!I have found that a little program called "Post Haste" from Digital Rebelion is great for creating the folder structures for various projects. It is free and you can set up as many different structures as you want for various types of projects. When it's time to start a new one, you just tell it the main folder name and location and it populates everything else for you.
That's a great program! Thanks.
Nice work, Colin. Organizing files 'before' you start a new Premier Project saves a lot of headaches later (and broken links). Great teaching!
I'm glad you found it useful.
At 8:10, he says it breaks the link. There's actually an extension called Watchtower that will keep it in sync so you never have to drag files in from explorer/finder again.
And guess what my tutorial will be on June 7th? Watchtower!
@@VideoRevealed Oh awesome. If it helps your tutorial: I actually had an issue where the link was broken because one of my folders had an apostrophe in it. But I emailed the support email, and the dev literally wrote back within a few hours with a fix. I went from being really upset to really impressed with their customer service.
I’m rewatching as I start this new project. Repetition proves correction.😎 thanks Collin
Absolutely, and before long it will become second nature.
Sir i am final cut pro editor from 2009 live in India, as per need i am starting to learn premiere pro and watching your video i like your videos Thanks Sir, Rakesh Kale
Thank you, I really appreciate your comments.
Greatest channel of them all!!! Thank you !
Oh wow, thanks so much!
Great Tutorial, Collin Smith
Thanks.
THANK YOU DUDE!!!! I really needed organization, love your videos keep it up!!!
Yay! Thanks for watching.
Sir this such a cool way to start a project thanks
Yep, ya gotta get organized. At least, that's what my wife always tells me.
"You know who you are"...haha. Caught me there. Appreciate the help dear teacher. Subbed and Loved.
Oh yeah, we all have to start somewhere.
Thanks, Colin! Always great videos and tips! Much appreciated.
You're welcome.
Organizing stuff before editing is really important, I already do that.
It's a great way to get organized.
This is exactly how I've been setting up for a couple of years. I find it hard to believe people don't organise their files....
I keep meaning to look at Prelude, I'll check out you video on it shortly
Just look at most user's Desktop, it's usually a mess. Thanks for watching.
Discipline discipline discipline of organising the work in proper folders!!! Collin thanks for this highly important aspects of APP work!!! 👍🏻😀
Oh yeah, it makes editing so much easier.
These videos are saving my college capstone one folder at a time. thank you!
That's great!
Thanks again Collin!! I'm leaning to better project manage my work.
That's great and you'll be more productive because of it.
I complete do not use the project manager of Premiere Pro. When I learned how to import files directly from windows, I'll keep everything organized in windows. Plus, I use a tool called Q-Dir which helps a lot.
Wow, Q-Dir looks pretty cool. I'm giving it a try. Thanks.
Gorgeous key piece of advice! Congrats!
Thanks.
You got a Patreon subscription from me. I learn so much from your videos!
Thanks so much for your support!
Yo! thanks so much. I appreciate all these tutorials you make :)
And I appreciate your support!
Love it. new to this. Thanks heaps. Great channel
Thanks and welcome to VideoRevealed.
Great video,
Definitely going to use the excellent tips
I am watching your channel and learning a lot
Thanks
You're welcome and thanks for watching.
I feel so smart. I have been doing it this way for a while. Now, I need to find your tutorial- on how to open two or more projects in the timeline, and also, did you make a video on how to save text, banners and co. on Adobe? Thanks a lot.
Yes you are smart for doing it the right way!
You can open multiple Projects and Timelines in Premiere Pro. Just choose Open from the File menu to open more than one Project. But it gets a little confusing which Timelines belong to which Project so I suggest only opening one at a time. For saving and loading graphics, I think Libraries are the best:
ua-cam.com/video/_A4Ot8qQvMo/v-deo.html
You can also "peak" inside another Project and copy anything to your current Project: ua-cam.com/video/UKuNTPXmfnA/v-deo.html
Thank you so much for your reply. You’re the best. I’m currently working on another edit now and your response time Was just perfect. What I really needed was “peak” inside another completed project of mine for graphics. And I’m so sorry that I have enjoyed your contents for a while but just now subscribing :).
Many thanks again.
I pick up projects from client who do not organize their hard drives and Premiere Pro projects. The first thing I do after confirming all the assets are there is to go back to the hard drive and put everything into proper folders. I then restart the process to reassemble the Premiere Pro project so it sees all the folders. It's a hassle to do this, but the time spent before I start editing, especially with large projects, saves me time and confusion as I edit. On the Mac, Premiere does extremely well at automatically re-linking assets.
One exception to your process is when I work on projects that have common assets (graphics, music, bumpers, AE renders, etc.) that I store in a separate location. I only make copies if I need to modify any of these assets for a specific project.
Fantastic workflow and good for you to reorganize the mess.
Hi Dave. Quick question. Are you working from an external drive? Would the links break If you used that external drive in another computer? I like to work on both my MacBook Pro and my PC desktop. I'm trying to find a consistent and organized workflow because sometimes I like to sit in my recliner with the MacBook and other times I like to be at my stand desk. Thanks!
You are a great teacher. Thank you.
Thanks for your support.
My Brother Abhishek mather told me about you. and God I am learning a lot from you colin, you got another loyal subscriber.
Thanks so much and welcome to VideoRevealed.
Yet another great tip. Colin I'd love if you did a video on best practise how to set up a project using scratch disks and editing the project off an external ssd. Right now I don't do that but think it's a work flow I should start using. Thanks.
Great idea. I just added it to the list!
Didn't know about that aspect of the import feature. Cool. And thanks for all the great content.
Don't know why people talk so much about using Bridge/LR/some other program to read media cards. I just use Explorer/Finder to cut & paste them. Seems pretty easy. Of course I don't rename files. I can see how they'd be handy if you want to do an auto-rename to some other naming sequence. But don't really see a point to that.
On backups, the 3-2-1 system is a great one to set up to do automatically: 3 copies, 2 different media types, 1 offsite.
I have a project template directory that contains: a file structure similar to what you showed already created in it, resources I use in every project, and AE and PP projects preloaded with the common resources. Starting a new project is a matter of copying that directory, renaming it, copying the media to the appropriate directories and firing up AE/PP.
Cheers.
Adobe Prelude was developed at the request of the BBC and CNN, both of who have very strict guidelines on managing media and metadata and they wanted to have an application that required very little training and guaranteed the resulting files met those guidelines and were ready to use.
For a lot of indie filmmakers, the fact that many DSLRs have duplicate file names can really cause a problem in the future.
Interesting, didn't know that about the news orgs. If I thought about it, I'd just have assumed they'd have their own in-house software to handle media management.
They do, but when you're ingesting thousands of videos in the field (Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics for example) they need local, fast turn around.
Great video.... thank you.... I only do short projects but this still helped me.
You're welcome.
Love this advice. Thank you so much! I don't know how it was possible for me to edit videos without this tipp. It was always such a hastle :D Thumbs up!
Thanks for your support.
Love your opening title/logo. Could you do a tutorial on how to create one please?
Yes I will. Expect to see it in the next few weeks.
Another great video, Colin. Any chance you'll do a video on the new features that came with the latest Premiere Pro 11.1.0 update? I've seen a few posted elsewhere, but no one does Premiere tutorials like you.
Thanks Dan, yes I will be doing some tutorials on all the new features. Stay tuned.
I was thinking of starting with a live streaming event to gather everyone's questions. Would that be a good idea?
Thanks a lot SIR, Your Tips are very useful to simplify my workflow
That's great!
Great video. this should be the number ONE video to watch. I'm happy I watched this one before starting with my first "real" prject! :-)
Thanks.
I've been doing this since I started out premiere pro, hahaha I am in the right track, I feel so Smart after watching this video.
Oh yeah, you're doing it good!
Same for me. Especially considering you work on multiple projects the same time! ;)
Excellent tutorial as always Collin ,can you done on your favourite shot cuts and what you use them ?
Keep them coming.
Thanks.
Sooooo much easier! Half the battle with Premiere comes down to the basics. Once you've got the basics down you're ahead of most non professional editors out there.
This definitely the way to go.
True organization made simple. Thank you so much!
I'm glad you liked it.
Please accept my apologies for a previously rude comment. I need to look in the mirror before expressing my own personal frustrations. Your channel is great, I look forward to learning more from you.
Hey Rob, we're all guilty of jumping too fast now and again. Apology accepted and welcome to VideoReveald. :-)
Oh and Collin, thanks for all you do. Tom Cooper
Thanks for your support Tom.
thanks for this important advice!!
You bet; it's how I start every show. Thanks.
Perfect Tutorials Collin. No, THE BEST! THX
Glad you think so!
Watch out, though, that you have to have content in each subfolder. And that - for some reasons - means at least TWO files that are recognized by PP as valid formats. If you have a subfolder that contains zero ore one such item, the corresponding bin WILL NOT be created. In case such an ignored subfolder had contained exactly one item, this will move up to the bin that contained the missing subfolder (or even further up, for the same reasons, if it's alone there).
Again (and again and again...) big usability issues with supposedly neat features. Which is the main feature of Adobe products nowadays.
A workaround, when using template folders, is to place two empty TXT files into each and every subfolder. These count as valid formats and can be gotten rid of later in PP by sorting/filtering for the file format.
I also use Post Haste by Digital Rebellion and it's free. I create custom file templates for each video type that have standard files I need already in folders. From release forms to intro clips already named with the job name.
It has been able to do everything I have expected. See if you get it to do all you need. I'd love to see what you come up with.
Tom
Great tip.
Thank you sir. Your tips are very helpful. Respect from India.
You're welcome and hello from Canada.
This is so true 😂. Keep up the good work!
Yes it is. Thanks.
VideoRevealed no, thank you :)
Man, you are my god!!!! Thank you very much!!!!
Well thanks for the kind words my friend.
Yo old man. your videos are really helpful! great job!
Thanks young man.
You are so helpful with these videos! Lets get those subscribers up because you deserve much more. SUBBED!
Thanks so much. I'm going everything I can to get more subscribers and I hope more will find us.
create a set of this empty "my project" folder
which contains all the other folders you'll need(like shown in video)
and keep this empty set on desktop.
Now every time you have a new project to start, you just copy this empty set to your projects folder,
rename it with project name
And then drop the raw files which you need in respective sub-folders.
now, import this main folder in premiere pro.
Done.
Great tip!
Hi Colin. Excellent tutorials. I've been editing for a while, but it is always good to compare notes even on the basics and I'm pleased my folder structure mirrors yours (except I have a specific 'Project' folder for my .ppr files). One big difference is you appear to import all the full clips into your project via media browser. I can see the reason the way you do that to create bins, but I always create my own bins and use media browser to cut a subclip(s) to import instead of the full file. Is there a specfic reason for importing the full clip files or is that just a choice thing?
There are no hard and fast rules and you're method sounds like another good workflow.
Thanks for the feedback!
Colin!! I took your suggestion and came over to this video. I am pretty good at organizing things, but you have given me great tips to save a bit of time for sure. You said never have your current project on your desktop. I tend to drag my current project onto the desktop so I can easily drag and drop back and forth from other files, or things I have downloaded, during my editing. I store it away once I'm done and get it off the desktop. But why is it not good to work from the desktop?
If you're constantly moving to and from the Desktop, those are extra steps. It's move advantageous to have a specific folder like Work, where you put your client/project folders in there. Now you have a single place where everything is. Even better, attach or add a second fast drive and put everything there.
And the worse case is when someone saves the Premiere Pro Project file right on the Desktop. That's a recipe for disaster as Premiere Pro creates a specific set of folders for each project and mixing them up with cause things to fail.
anyone using the desktop for serious storage is not ready for Premiere Pro. it really shouldnt be an option for any program to use the desktop. but it is useful you start by clarifying basic filing structure.
Great as always !!!
Thanks!
I use Post Haste from Digital Rebellion. Works on Mac and PC and I have made a series of folders as a template.
Yes, I've heard that from a few other people.
Great video and yes, I always organise my project in one folder that's the first things I do.
My Q is: what is the right Sequence setting for sony XAVC-S 4k (a6300) ? When I create Seq. from video the "Editing Mode" in Seq. Setting is "RED Cinema" !! with a moving camera or panning / tilting there is some kind of jerk or ghosting, It is not smooth (I'm not talking about: Rolling Shutter), I saw this in some videos in UA-cam and some aren't having this problem. (It is like repeated edges in slow motion) (Premiere Pro 2015.3 and SSD Drive).
First of all, why haven't you updated to CC 2017?
Premiere Pro does a "best guess" when choosing an Editing Mode when creating a Sequence that way - you can change it if you need. Is the ghosting showing up in your export?
Good video! I've also indexed my folders. So I might have something like this (1.Footage, 2.Premiere, 3.AfterEffects, 4.Audition etc.)... Btw. there's one tool that has been super useful for video production and it's free. As it's name suggests (Bulk Rename Utility) you can rename files in bulk. For an example I was delivered 1Tb of footage from various locations. I used Bulk Rename Utility to add prefix of the location to each clip. Really useful to see something that useful in the filenime while editing. Maybe you could do a video about the BRU if you find it as useful yourself.
Thanks for your support!
That sounds like a great utility but I'll probably stick with using Adobe Bridge to rename; I'm just more familiar with it.
best channel for editing
Thanks.
Thanks buddy. Sorry for missing this.
Extremely Helpful!
Thanks so much.
well damn. I thought I was so much more organized this time when I installed and started using premiere pro compared to how it was on my last computer, (sigh...) Prepare for a flood of thumbs ups, and watch time as I have just subbed, and will be going through all you're videos looking for the ones that will aid me in my learning the adobe softwares. I don't know if you'll still reply to a video this old, but I assume it isn't to late for me to go back and set things up in this manner? I have adobe production premium cs6 and just now have reasons to learn it all. I know there will be differences between the older software, and cc and I'm fine with that because even learning 70% of something is still better than 0%. I also wanted to mention that as a person doing research, i appreciate that you simply got to the point, and stayed on topic (There are far to many "how to" videos where the creator rambles on about things that have no bearing to the video) so thanks for that. Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much and yes I try to reply to every comment, regardless of how old the tutorial is. I work very hard to keep my tutorials focused because I don't want to fall into that trap of rambling on and on that we see all too often. Thanks for your sub!
I love it; but who would dislike?!
Thanks Anthony, not everyone is as supportive as you! :-)
Am I a hopeless case if I thought you literally meant to clean off my physical desktop before I started working on a project?
I'm looking forward to your video "Adobe Prelude: What the heck does it do?". (My title suggestion. :--) )
Since I move to Windows 7 years ago and turned off my Desktop icons, I have never, ever put anything on the desktop anymore and I'm 100% better organized.
3 key folders I created are "Screenshots", "Help" and "Test".
I use these folders when answering users questions so instead of throwing a screenshot on the desktop, I know exactly where to put it and where to find it in the future. Test is for quickly exporting out something to test. I can also empty this folder without consequence because I know it was just a test.
Lastly, if someone needs more research then I start a new folder with the person's name in my Help folder.
These 3 folders keep hundreds of files in their place and it takes the exact same amount of time as throwing something on the desktop.
When I was on the Mac, my Desktop was also filled with stuff; so much so that it took a while to find what I wanted.
Wow! I think you just changed my life.
OMG U ARE AWESOME. Thanks
Thanks so much for your kind words.
Great video, thank you. On an unrelated point, is this video done with a greenscreen please? If so, it's amazing, can't see green at all. Pete
The background is actually a projected image behind me. Here's a behind the scenes of my full setup:

Hello Colin. Wonderful tips here about organizing material into bins. Thank you for this and all your kind and generous work.
I am working on multiple interview projects at once. When reviewing source material for one film I l often want to put a certain subclip from it aside to combine with others for a completely different film I'm making. What is the best way to collect subclips as I go along? Can I have a running timeline that I just drop clips into? If I want to sync audio from my H5, should I do that first? I'd welcome your thoughts. Thank you!
You have a couple of choices:
1. You can now open multiple Projects in Premiere Pro CC 2018 so just copy the Subclips from one Project to Another.
2. Use the Pancake Timeline: ua-cam.com/video/SCpowlt2lZc/v-deo.html
Sync all your secondary audio first before making any Subclips.
For meto much folders. I create one for one Film, that includes everything and for me it works good 😊😊
Ok.
thanks SIR.
You're welcome.
I keep project files in Dropbox - so I always have a backup.
And also the finished videos are separate - because if I want to show or copy videos that are finished - it would take so much time to find them in these folders where there is also the original footage, graphics and so on. So I have a folder kind of "Finished Videos" and there are folders for each finished project. So there I can easily take files, I need to crab with me for a presentation or what ever.
Okay. I have an Output folder in every Project folder I create and can find them easily even with over 400 projects. I also use OneNote to organize all tutorials by number. I haven't lost anything so far.
@@VideoRevealed but how do you find all the finished projects at once? In explorer search for example? I mean I just said how I organize my video files, not that your method would be any less good :) I always wonder how every video editor organizes their files and workflow.
@@VideoRevealed Nice management. DO you have a video explaining your project management and OneNote origination? I think would help the community.
COlin you really need to make a tutorial on the new update of Premiere Audio Tab
I know, I know...but Adobe took me by surprise by releasing this update way before it was historically expected. I had no plans to release anything before July and now I"m scrambling. It won't have anything ready for a couple months, sorry.
Why not set a standard grouping of folders and label it "Base Folders" and have it on a separate drive. Then, when you start a new project just copy to your working drive and rename the "Base Folders" to the project name. (I.e.: "Jones Wedding"). That way you always have the folder structure set up and ready to go!
Yes that makes sense but, from all the comments to me, it's obvious that some people would never go to that effort so this is the first "baby step" to get organized.
I just set up my basic directory structure (I seem to have used the same kind of grouping for most of my projects) so I can easily copy it to the active directory and move my files into it in a few clicks! Thank you for the nudge forward!
I'm about to get my feet wet editing a reality show down from hundreds of hours of footage, multiple cameras + external audio. I've only worked on smaller projects so [i'm feeling a bit overwhelmed..] this tutorial helps get me ready. I noted you have organized MyProject/Video/Day1|Day2. Would you set up your audio using MyProject/Audio/Day1|Day2 as well, rather than putting the audio along side each day's video?
Hmmm, that's a good question. It think it depends how busy each day's folder gets. If it's easy to look in there and find the right audio, then yes, put them all together in each day. If looking in there is confusing then make Video and Audio folders for each day.
Very useful. Thanks.
You're welcome.
Super helpfull as always mister Collin, great video. Muchas gracias.
You're welcome.
Amen love it thanks!
You're welcome.
VideoRevealed I'm gunna be using a green screen a lot in my next music video.. if you have any links for tips/tricks for lighting and whatnot I'd be super grateful! and I will be editing in Adobe pp and after effects. Thanks!!
I have a tutorial here: ua-cam.com/video/puuKSB2SC3o/v-deo.html
But the place to go is the Green Screen Handbook, written by my buddy Jeff Foster. He is the absolute guru for doing everything green screen and this book gets constant updates. He covers everything from lighting to shooting to picking the correct material. Here's the book: ua-cam.com/video/puuKSB2SC3o/v-deo.html
Here's his site: pixelpainter.com/
He also has workshops: pixelpainter.com/go-green/
Sir, since you added the complexity of different days I guess you want to have days structure at least under the audio folder and if you have images photographed every day you might also want to to consider having the days folder on top than in each day have the video, audio and images ( and maybe another 'common' or general assets folder with icons and such)
Wouldn't you?
I was really just giving a general view and shooting from the hip on my folder naming, so yeah, your recommendations make perfect sense.
Hadas Hamerovv I personally don't structure by days. I go down to he camer/audio folder followed by camera type.... Usually I have files sorted by name so would be in order shot. Also, I have a creation date column that I can glance at if I need a particular day
Thank you man!
No problem!
Great video!
Thanks.
Your amazing! Thank you
You're so welcome!
I think your VideoRevealed Graphic is great; saw it for the first time today. Is that something you would share. I'd love to have it to customize for a local club or a nonprofit. Thanks.
Hey Dale, thanks. I can share everything except the lens flares which you can buy from Rampant Design Tools. You can download 40+ 4k effects from their site to get you started! rampantdesigntools.com/free-download-sign/
I'm planning on doing a tutorial on my show opening because I've put it together in such a way that I can drop in my next show and it fits perfectly. I use grouped clips and clip markers so I know where the cuts are with my eyes closed. I wish I had of thought about that a long time ago.
If you can wait a few weeks for that episode, I'll have it for you then?
I had hoped to work with it this week while I re-learn PPro. I am also anxious to learn how you did it so I can follow the steps, but if you could give me a sneak preview I can start some of the learning now.
Okay, here you go. It's missing the lens flares but everything else is there.
If you place your video on V2, you'll get the effect of the Adjustment layer blur. The clip marker is where I put the edit point of when I start talking at the into, to where I pickup again after the bumper.

That sounds pretty interesting. Looking forward to that one. :)
Hey, i have done as you explained but some (not all) folders are renamed with XDROOT when they are imported in the project bin? What should i do?
I am one to scatter stuff on the desktop so I love this tip. Question: I am planning to film for a project that may take weeks to complete. If I add video and audio folders to a “my project” folder on my storage drive ( as you describe) then add more files to these same video and audio folders as the many days go on, then each day when I go to import the additional files within the video and audio folders to Premier, will the already imported folders and files be ignored (ie not duplicated) and whatever is new be added to the original folder structure within Premier?
No. Premiere Pro does not know what's been added to the Desktop so you need to import all new footage. My suggestion is to put the new footage in a folder on the drive, then import that whole new folder into Premiere Pro. That way it will mirror the drive, but it has to be done manually.
Good video, thanks. Let me know how to set up Premiere with 3 drives (1 one of them used for my windows and software, and others for Premiere cache and saving files). I mean how to set up scratch disks in the new project.
Just point the Scratch Disks to Same As Project. They really aren't that important anymore now that Premiere Pro plays most edits without rendering.
