Working with the Project window
The Project window is a storage area for compositions and references to footage items. In
the Project window you import, identify, replace, remove, and interpret footage items and
compositions. You can organize footage and compositions in the Project window using
folders. The folders you create in the Project window exist only in the Project window. You
can expand a folder to reveal its contents. You can also put folders inside other folders.
To remove footage from a project:
Do any of the following:
• To eliminate an item from a project, select the item and press Delete.
• To remove all unused footage items from a project, choose File > Remove Unused
Footage.
• To remove all compositions and footage items that are not used in the selected compo-
sition, choose File > Reduce Project.
• To remove all duplicate footage items from a project, Choose File > Consolidate All
Footage.
