  • Project Manager: do i understand this correctly?

    Posted by Tad Newberry on September 8, 2014 at 9:05 pm

    Not quite a year into the Adobe life, i just tried PP’s Project Manager today for the first time. Needless to say, it didn’t do what i thought it would/should. Wanting to quickly and easily trim a project down to what is used in the current sequence…but the best i could do was have it clean out the Project directory window (good job there), but then the “copied” media files seem to all be .xmp files and a single AVCHD file rather than the 7 separate clips that were on the sequence.

    Is that the best that it will do? If so, no worries, i’ll just wait for (and suggest) the update. If not, let me know what i’m doing wrong. THANKS!

    thanks for helping out a bonehead!

    Thanks. 2014 seemed a bit buggie before, but are you all using it fine now? Also, i stupidly discovered that when i looked at the folder created by Project Manager the AVCHD file was a folder with the original mts clips in there…so it looks like it did what i was looking for. Cool!

    thanks for helping out a bonehead!

    As Michael said, what your after will be in the upcoming version of Premiere Pro CC.

    In the current version, only AVI and QuickTime formats are supported for trimmed projects.

    Best,

    I am having the issue using Prores 422 mov’s @ 29.97 fps. I have a 40 sec test sequence we are sending to our potential colorist just to make sure this workflow will work for him. For some reason the export is like 50gb. So obviously something isn’t trimming. It looks like the file that isn’t being trimmed is a multi cam. Both the files in the multicam are prores mov’s, but is there an issue with multi cams when doing this?

    This is by design. Multicam clips and a nested sequence (multicam enabled or not) has to include the entire source.
