Creating a new Adobe Premiere Pro project
Creating a new Adobe Premiere Pro project involves specifying the location of
your scratch disks and selecting a sequence preset.
1 Start Adobe Premiere Pro and click the New Project icon. The New
Project
dialog appears. You can leave all the settings on the General pane at
the default settings. For details on changing these settings, see your Adobe
Premiere Pro documentation.
2 On the Scratch Disks pane, use the Browse button to select an appropriate
A/V drive for each scratch disk type. When specifying the location of your
scratch disks, make sure you follow the recommendations in your Adobe
Premiere Pro documentation. For example, store your video and audio files
on a separate hard drive dedicated to your media assets.
¥Tip Specifying the same scratch disk settings for all your projects will help
shorten the amount of time it takes to open new or existing projects.
3 From the Location list, select where you want to save your project.
4 Specify a Name for your project.
5 Click OK to save your settings.
6 Choose File > New > Sequence (CC only). The New Sequence dialog
opens on the
Sequence Presets pane.
7 Under Available Presets, select the preset that matches the type of
sequence that you want to create. Matrox MXO2 supports all the available
presets, including custom presets that you create.
¦NoteWhen you select any of the MPEG-2 I-frame presets, the Matrox
MPEG-2 I-frame codec will be set for rendering your video previews.

4VANC closed caption data:
