Here's a quick video on how you can open multiple projects using the 20:18 version of Premiere Pro which
was released in October of 2017.
Feel free to skip this video if you're not interested in it or if you don't have that version.
Otherwise keep watching because this is a really cool trick.
So in the past you would be able to import their sequences from another project by going up to a file
and you could actually import a specific project into your project but you couldn't open two at the
same time.
Now why is this awesome.
Well you can share graphics and other assets from one project to another for example maybe you've created
some sort of titles or maybe you've created a little sequence of clips that you want to use in another
project while you can easily open that and bring it into another project.
So let me show you how that would work.
Now I have one project open.
It's just a blank project called CC 20:18 update.
You'll also notice that the interface looks a little bit different we have this panel over here on the
right hand side which has all these other sort of panels that you can open and close including battery
color essentials sound essential graphics these are a lot of the things that they've updated in Premiere
Pro.
But if I go up to file open and I can open a recent or I could go to my finder and open another project
and let's just open this portrait photography class that I've been editing.
What happens is it opens up the project a separate project panel for the portrait photography project
and it opens up all the sequences that I had open in this project so I can actually go out and close
some of these down or say I have some clips in a sequence that I want to use.
So say I have these clips and I want to copy these into my other project.
I can just take them from this sequence so I can select them press commands see to copy them and then
go to my other projects sequence.
So I created this blank sequence number one and paste them command V.
That would be control C and control V if you're on a PC.
And now those videos that raw video has actually been opened in this were copied into the CC 20:18 project
that I had created so that you have those videos there for use even if you closed down the portrait
photography project.
Now if you want to open both these projects at the same time because these are now tabs within this
panel what I can do is just click and drag the Porcher photography down to the bottom.
And now we can open up the 20:18 project and now if I open this a little bit bigger we can see I can
go through here and say I have some titles or something maybe some music or a graphic photo that I use
I can just drag this into my project up here which is just a completely different way that you can approach
editing projects.
I like having a lot if I'm doing a series of videos.
I like having them all within one project.
Now I can imagine if I was doing some larger scale projects such as a TV series or a web series where
I was using a lot of graphics and assets within one project I might not want to have all of those episodes
in one project but now I can create individual projects for each of those videos.
But if I want to share assets or graphics or even sequences of videos like I said that I've edited I
can easily copy and paste them into another project.
If you have other ideas for how you can use this new feature in 2018 version of Creative Cloud then
let me know.
Thank you so much for watching and we'll see you in another lesson.
