In other words, this is designed for a workgroup of editors where all projects and media are stored on a server which everyone in the workgroup can access.Īnother BIG note is that you need to set Collaboration preferences before sharing your first project. Shared projects assume all editors who need to view the project have access to the location where both the project and media are stored. If you create a Shared Project, be sure to resave it immediately into a location that is accessible to other members of the workgroup. NOTE: Shared projects are stored in, as far as I can tell, the last folder that you used to create a private project. You are always better off creating stand-alone projects which can be shared anytime after they are created. While you can use File > New > Shared Project to create a shared project, my recommendation is to create a normal Premiere project because there is no ability to specify where a Shared Project will be stored.

Especially because there is a BIG GOTCHA in shared projects that you need to know – I’ll explain more below. It surely can’t be THAT hard to add a few more keywords to help new users find actually relevant information, rather reading the top-rated article from 2014 which has nothing to do with either preferences or shared projects. Do a search for “Shared Projects” or click the Help button in Preferences and nothing relevant appears. And, while Adobe keeps telling me that their Help files are improving – which is true, the content continues to improve – FINDING something is darn near impossible.


See the details here.īefore we start, though, it is very easy to screw things up with a Shared Project. NOTE: I’ve put together detailed video training on Team Projects. In fact, also unlike Team Projects, you can lock a Shared Project so that only you can make changes to it, while anyone else can see what it looks like. Unlike Team Projects – which are also new – Shared Projects can be created by any Premiere editor. New with the 2018 update to Adobe Premiere Pro CC are Shared Projects.
