Footage in a multicam sequence will not be trimmed (because it is nested into another sequence).You would need to transcode this footage to another format like Pro Res to trim it using Project Manager.
You can’t trim Long GOP footage like H.264 or MXF. There are a few things to be aware of when trimming projects using the Premiere Pro Project Manager: ‘Gotchas’ with Premiere’s Project Manager Although trimming will take out the majority of the footage that didn’t make it in the final videos, handles are useful for giving you that little bit of “wiggle room” in case you need it later on.Ĭlick “Calculate” to see what the size of the trimmed project/media will be.Ĭlick “Browse” to set a destination and then click “OK”. I generally make my handles 2-3 seconds, so that I can go back and make trimming changes or add new transitions if necessary. Since we are trimming the media we’ll want to include handles on each clip (this adds time before and after each clip in the timeline). The trimmed version will remove all unused footage so that the new version only includes the media elements that were actually included in the video(s). When it’s time to archive your Premiere Pro project you can use the Project Manager to create a clean “trimmed version” of it. Much more tidy than dragging files around your computer! The media and project are then copied to the specified destination. Leave Include Preview Files (rendered effects) & Audio Conform Files checked.Ĭheck Rename Media Files to Match Clip Names when you have renamed your clips in the Project.Ĭlick the Browse button to choose a location to copy the files/project to. Uncheck Exclude Unused Clips since we want to move all the files. Under Resulting Project select Collect Files and Copy to New Location. 
This is especially useful if you’re planning on editing off-site or need to share a project with another editor.įrom the Project menu select Project Manager. Here’s a typical editing scenario: You want to collect your project and media files and copy them to a new location, such as an external hard drive.
The Project Manager serves to simplify this process. You can run into additional problems if media isn’t reconnected properly or some files go astray. If you move the project and the media separately you will break the link and have to reconnect them. Use Premiere Pro’s Project Manager when you are copying or trimming (removing unused files) your project. It’s not a sexy topic, but it is important! Use Premiere Pro’s Project Manager to move/archive your projects without breaking connections and getting offline error messages.
