Creating a project folder

Before starting a Premiere project, you'll need to create a project folder. All media files associated with your project will live in this project folder along with your Premiere project file (PRPROJ.)

Never rename, move or delete the media files in your project folder. Your PRPROJ file references these files. If your PRPROJ file can't locate a media file, it will appear offline in your project.

1. Connect your project folder SD card to the back of a Mac.

2. Navigate to your project folder SD card in a Finder window. (Note: To bring up a new Finder window, click the Desktop and then press Command N on the keyboard.)

3. Control-click in the project folder SD card Finder window. In the fly-out menu, select New Folder.

4. Give this folder a new name. Follow file and folder naming conventions.
