All language subtitles for 4. My Sequence and Project Organisation for Daily Vlogging

Hi.

Welcome back.

It is Brad here with another Adobe Premiere Pro Sisi tutorial.

This time though I'm going to give you real insight to how I organize my logs within one of my Premier

pro project files.

And so right now on your screen I'm gonna give you a real example of what I've been doing for a couple

of years now about how I kind of organize my logs within a project file inside Premier pro.

So as you might be aware I do almost daily logging.

I've kind of scaled back now maybe four or five times a week but I've been doing I've done almost a

thousand videos now over the last few years and and so to be able to put out so much content I need

to have really good organizational skills and so just to backtrack a little bit.

It all kind of starts with you know organizing everything into folders and I've talked about this before

I've talked about for example new screen here I've got one project so I've got all my projects here

right that you can see and I already talked about this briefly in another video but my USA series if

I double click on that I've got all my folders here which represent a daily video 13th of August 14th

15 16 17th of August 18th 19th 20th.

And so I'm very meticulous with organizing my logs in a very organized folder structure and then down

here I've got all of my project files that represent my projects associated with all of these folders.

Now I mentioned before in a while I'm not sure if you've gotten to it just yet but if you watch the

video or talk about optimization I talk about how it's practical to organize your premier probe projects

so that you've only got you know 10 or 15 sequences or 10 to 15 blogs inside each project file before

you should start another project file because otherwise it just gets too slow and I'll show what I mean

real quick.

So for example in this project file if I click on these two arrows here and drop that down I've got

one two three four five six seven.

Not really counting those two because I haven't really done anything with those two and thumbnails is

kind of a little sequence that I play with when I make some of my thumbnails for certain projects.

But one two three four five so far I've got five sequences or five logs inside this project file named

fitness street logs P 6 or part 6.

So this is my current project file that I'm using.

So when I get to about 10 in this list then I close off this project file then I start a brand new project

file so that I keep Premier pro running fast and so that manifests like this I've got you know part

1 part 2 somewhere part 3 Part 4 Part 5 and so on.

It's kind of not as perfectly named but I've split up my project files accordingly and inside each of

these has you know ten or so of logs or sequences inside them.

And I like to keep the size of my project files quite small like around to two and a half megabytes

in size right.

So I suggest you do the same thing.

So again I've got all of my folders here right with all my daily logs and then all I do is I go into

Premier probe and I as I've talked about already I've got those folders that I just showed you some

of them here inside the at the bottom left hand side here my project window.

Okay.

A double click on that.

I've got all the assets and stuff like that associated with that daily vlog.

And then if I go one step further I've got the I've got the sequence file somewhere.

Here it is.

I've got the sequence file associated with that vlog here.

And if I double click on it as you can see it automatically just opened it up here on your screen.

Okay.

So as you can see we've got one sequence here.

We've got another sequence here and here this is like a menu.

Think of it like a menu and here.

And if you don't see it if you don't see a sequence or you have log here you can then click on these

two arrows here click the dropdown and then you can select it from the dropdown list here and you can

click it just like that alternatively you can and I do this sometimes if I like to keep my order quite

consistent on the top here I just click on the sequence and I drag it across and I can shuffle my sequences

around as you can see like that I can shuffle them around on my top menu there and I can drop it anywhere

I want.

Now if you make the mistake of clicking the I use that.

I've done this in the past and I absolutely freaked out almost no way.

I've just lost my project and I got really upset.

I'll show you.

And you wrote If you ever do this and I guarantee you will at some point you'll know exactly how to

to recover it.

So here next to each sequence we have a cross.

Right.

If you run your mouse over the.

I think a little cross here right.

Little X now if you click on that cross the sequence disappears like it's gone right.

Know like oh no what have I done.

All you've done is you've just closed the sequence out of sight.

It's still exist.

You haven't deleted it.

You've just that you've just closed that down just like closing down an application.

So all you've got to do is you double click you find the sequence right.

And you double click on it over here and it reopens over here.

So if I exit out right it's gone.

It's not it's not there anymore.

Right.

One two three four there's any for not including these ones.

One two three four.

Watch this.

Double click.

It comes back over here.

Hit the dropdown.

One two three four.

Ah there it is.

Five.

Premier pro has put that back up here on the top again.

So this is something to keep in mind.

So that's typically what I do.

Now I'll show you one other thing too.

So if I double click on this project window and I go to my hard drive and I go to video blogs and I've

got a projects and I go to USA series and I pick a folder that I want to import I'm going to try and

find one that's quite small and actually I won't import it because it might take too long but just say

hypothetically I'm importing that photo just like I have right here.

Just like I have right here the very next thing I do if I want to start or create a sequence all I do

is I go into the folder I then I'll go on to another habit.

This one how about this one and just say for example I want to start a new sequence with this video

clip right here.

The easiest way of doing it when I've already got a bunch of sequences open like this is I right click

on it and I go New sequence from clip.

This is the easiest way of creating a brand new sequence inside a project like this.

If I click on that watch what happens.

Premier pro automatically generates a brand new sequence against the properties of that particular clip.

Right.

And I talk about that in another video and I'll show you real quick.

So if we go into the list of you here that particular clip was shot at 50 frames a second.

And if we zoom if we move across here it was at 1920 by 10 80.

And if we go if we go to see that this is our new sequence here.

And by the way automatically by default Premiere Pro is going to label our sequence the same name as

the clip that we've produced that sequence from.

So that was the I underscore.

5 1 1 6.

And you'll see here the little icon shows up down the bottom right hand corner.

I'll show you that it looks like a little Lego block stack of blocks.

That just means that that's a sequence.

Another one over here that's just another sequence that's a sequence file.

So all I gotta do is I double click on it and I rename it.

I call it something like Tiger Moy Ty vlog.

So now I've just named my vlog Tiger Moy type of log.

And then that particular sequence has been created around the characteristics of that clip.

For example if I click on that clip that I write clicked on before go to list view I showed you 50 frames

and I showed you that just a second ago.

If I go to sequence so if I go click on this so click on this box there's a blue box around it now I've

got this sequence selected go to sequence sequence settings you'll see that these settings right here

50 frames ABC HD 10 ADP square pixel forty eight thousand hertz for the audio these settings have been

adapted from the clip that I right clicked on and clicked new sequence from clip says now Premiere Pro

we're creating a brand new sequence from this clip.

So if I go into my folder for example just say I want to create a brand new vlog using you know this

folder here and I've got all of these assets here all these little clips from my camera that I've shot

right.

Imagine if I import this into Premier pro if I do that right now it's going to take a while.

All I've got to do is now all these clips were shot with the same settings right.

So then all I do imagine these clips were inside Premier pro I just click on one of them just so they're

all inside here right click new sequence from clip.

This will happen right.

And then I can start creating my vlog inside a brand new sequence file.

So that's just a bit of an overview of how I organize and a very practical sense my sequences and my

logs inside a project.

So real quick just to summarize this if I'm you know I've got my project here and I've got one sequence

here which is one vlog.

This is one vlog that you're seeing right now.

I'll zoom out.

That's what it looks like.

And then if I want to jump to the next vlog I just click on it up here.

Right.

So my logs my daily logs almost daily logs are all sitting up here like a little menu and I can click

between them and I can click on the two arrows and I can select it from the list here and then want

to have enough sequences built up inside this project I then save it I then create a brand new project

and then I Yeah I start over.

So I hope that's been informative if it's confusing let me know I'll explain it in more detail in another

video but this is the most efficient way that I've found for me that I can organize my logs that I do

on an almost daily basis now hope that was helpful if every questions email me and I'll see you in the

next video.
