Best practices for sharing a project between two computers or drives
I’m teaching an editing class at a school whose computers have Premier Pro CS 6. I’ve never used the program professionally so I’m trying to learn it as I go, figuring I’ll pick it up quicker than the students will and in any event, I’m software agnostic about teaching editing. Still, this is the program available so I prepare demo materials with it. My question is about best practices when I create a project on my home computer and then want to transfer it to the school’s classroom computer. When I copy and paste a project to a transfer drive, attempts at opening the duplicate lead to a crash with some sort of “serious error” message. I can import my home project to a new project on the transfer drive and imagine I can then import that into the school computer, but am not clear what to do if I add to the project at home for next week’s class and want to update the school version. Is there a way to keep these projects synchronized or must I always create new projects and re-import? I keep thinking I’m missing something since I know if I were using the program in a professional capacity, there would have to be some way either over a network or by mutual project updating, that all members of an editing crew could access and update the same project. What I’m doing seems simpler than that yet all I seem to achieve is crashing the program. Thanks for any advice.
