When either trimming or collecting a project, you can specify whether the new project retains any of the unused
clips from the original project.
Note:
Project Manager retains any effect keyframes and clip markers that exist beyond the In and Out points of a
trimmed clip.
To trim or copy your project
You should consider using the “Include” options below when backing up or archiving your footage.
1
Make sure that the Project Window is active, and choose Project > Project Manager.
2
In the Project Manager window, select one of the following:
Create New Trimmed Project
to create a new version of the current project that refers only to the footage you used
in sequences
Collect Files and Copy to New Location
to copy and consolidate the footage you used in the project
3
Select any of the following options, if available.
Note:
The options that are available depend on whether you selected to trim the project or to collect and copy the project
files in step 2.
Exclude Unused Clips
Specifies that Project Manager will not include, or copy, media you did not use in the original
project.
Make Offline
Specifies that Project Manager denote as “offline” any footage that you can recapture later. When you
select this option, Project Manager retains reel names and timecode to facilitate quick batch capture. Selecting this
option is especially useful if you used low resolution footage in your original project, or if you are archiving a project.
This option is available only if Create New Trimmed Project is selected.
Note:
When recapturing footage using offline clips from a trimmed project, source clips that do not match the current
project settings are recaptured at their original settings, not the current project settings. To override this behavior, click
Override Clip Settings in the Batch Capture dialog box and specify the settings that you want for all captured clips.
However, this option is rarely necessary for capturing DV footage.
Include Handles
Specifies the number of frames to retain before the In point and after the Out point of each trimmed
clip. For example, a value of 30 means that 30 frames are retained before the In point, and 30 frames are retained after
the Out point. Handles function as extra frames that allow for additional minor adjustments to the edits in the new
project.
Include Preview Files
Specifies that effects you rendered in the original project remain rendered in the new project.
When not selected, the new project occupies less disk space, but the effects are not rendered. This option is available
only if you select Collect Files And Copy To New Location.
Include Audio Conform Files
Ensures that the audio you conformed in the original project remains conformed in the
new project. When not selected, the new project occupies less disk space, but Adobe Premiere Pro conforms the
audio again when you open the project. This option is available only if you select Collect Files And Copy To New
Location.
Rename Media Files To Match Clip Names
Renames the copied footage files with the same names as your captured
clips. Select this option if you rename your captured clips from within the Project window and want the copied
footage files to have the same name. (Captured files that you import, especially those captured using scene detection,
may not have intuitive names, so you may want to rename them from within the Project window.) This option
