About projects

For every project you create, Adobe Premiere Pro creates a project file. This file contains the settings you select for the project, as well as crucial data about the assets, edit decisions, and effects used in the project.

Adobe Premiere Pro doesn’t store video, audio, or still image files in the project file—it stores only a reference to each of these files based on its filename and location at the time you imported it. If you later move, rename, or delete a source file, Adobe Premiere Pro can’t find it automatically the next time you open the project. In this case, Adobe Premiere Pro displays the Where Is The File dialog box.

Every project includes a Project panel. This acts as a storage area for all files used in the project. You can organize a project’s media and sequences using bins in the Project panel.

A project may contain multiple sequences. Within a single project, you can edit individual segments as separate sequences, and then combine the segments into a finished program by nesting them into a longer sequence. Similarly, you can store multiple variations of a sequence in the same project.

Note: There’s no need to save copies of a project when creating different segments or versions of the same video program. Simply create new or duplicate sequences within a single project file.

I opened AdobePrempro,
I changed the path for my new project and gave it a name
...OOPS I pressed OK forgetting that this is the one and only chance to define PAl/NTSC/DV etc.

Now i have a project I don't want ... but how can I delete it ?
Nothing in help or menus that I can see.

Oh well, just have to delete all references
that I can find in the projects folder :-{

Hope that's OK.

sigh Software 101 If you provide a create then provide a destroy ...and rename too typically; Ok some "management authorisation nonsense" to ensure it's allowed to cover your metaphorical and literal tracks.

1. In Windows Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac OS), browse to the Adobe Premiere Pro project file, and select it. Project files have a .prproj file extension.
2. Press Delete.

Hey, i've done my premiere pro cs3 project in one computer. The videos are all captured directly from my camcorder into the premiere pro editing software. However, when i saved this prproj. file onto my thumbdrive and transferred it into another computer, ive been told that the premiere pro in this computer does not support the file in this saved prproj. file in the thumb. Can anyone tell me what's wrong?

To move a project to another computer where you want to continue editing, you must move copies of all the assets for the project to the second computer, as well as the project file. The assets should retain their file names and folder locations so that Adobe Premiere Pro can find them and relink them to their clips in the project automatically.
Make certain, also that the same codecs you used for the project on the first computer are also installed on the second computer.
