I rarely comment on KZbin videos… but I just gotta say how thankful I am for this video. This is gonna save me so much stress in future. Also, you’re straight to the point and not mass promoting stuff at the start like so many KZbinrs. Thank you thank you!

[@arowefilms]

This is a channel I accidently found and as a pro editor she clearly knows her stuff as an editor far more than many of the major youtubers who a pro can tell just work as a content editor and not a professional freelancer or work for hire.. Love your work and channel and learned a trick or two to have more productivity

[@lilafromyoutube]

Thank you! I’m glad you found my channel by accident haha

[@LucasHuang]

These videos are so helpful!!! Like these are actual useful "hidden" tips/tricks whereas other creators say hidden tricks & just end up telling us about right click + delete all gaps 😊😊😊

[@AnimeBreakdowns]

I like that every video I've watched so far was ACTUALLY useful. Great work.

[@lilafromyoutube]

🙏🏻🙏🏻 that’s my goal

[@anilaboutme]

I unfortunately get choppy playback after copying it and then using that as the location of my project eventhough it's on the same harddrive on my laptop. Any solutions for this?

[@RenLuuk]

Lila!! Been ages. Your channel is amazing! I am so good at recognising talent 😂 loved this vid though. That dreaded media red window!! Great tip. Hope you are doing well ❤

[@lilafromyoutube]

Hahaha you’re a real OG! 🥰 hope you’re doing well too

[@leapnlarry]

That never happens to me because i save all files in the same folder. Then backup on a 60TB nas. But i did learn a lot in this video. Larry

[@bobw222]

"Remove unused" seems to have done the trick for me. Thanks!

[@EditwithJB]

Love your videos, super helpful. Didn't know about the "Remove unused clips" feature. "Consolidate and Transcode" is a mess, especially if you are using .braw or RED footage which it will only copy media (won't transcode). Tried the media manager function many times and has rarely worked right, probably because of working with those codecs.

[@LCTKDYouTube]

Thanks Lila, that has helped solve a big headache!

[@lilafromyoutube]

Woop!

[@jeroendam]

This helped me a lot! Getting my files better organized this way. Thank you!

[@lilafromyoutube]

Amazing!

[@AsyhaliPutri]

Must i do this everytime when i want to close my premiere pro (while my project is still on progress)? Also when i did the project manager and i got a revision from my client (which i have to import the new video again), i re-opened the premiere pro and suddenly i saw the missing file warning on my newest footage. Should i do the project manager again for all of the sequence or is there any way to solve? Thanks a lot!

[@amatoris_]

Thanks lila❤❤❤❤

[@creepofreek4853]

Thank you Lila . Your videos are very interesting and Informative. Great job

[@dralezero]

I have many monthly folders of twitch clips and highlights of streams sometimes 20 minutes. I pull from this footage for multiple projects as needed. So although saving this way has been helpful, I end up with copies of the same 20 min footage even though I'm using various segments of 10 seconds of it in each project. The transcode thing seems like a good idea for this. But overall since I reuse footage I'm duplicating space.

[@ghuff31]

Thanks to telework, I find myself working the same project in two different locations and our OneDrive access for storage is SLOW. Hopefully the snazzy new laptop that I'm getting will give me a chance to get better organized like this!

[@lilafromyoutube]

oh cool what laptop are you getting?

[@ghuff31]

@@lilafromyoutube I'm not sure 🤣🤣 I went through B&H to spec a turnkey edit system, but knowing the US Government they'll probably just give me a Dell running windows 8 🤣

[@bri.forcier]

this is soooo helpful, thank you!!

[@lilafromyoutube]

🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@danielcrompton7818]

Hi there, as an editor do you keep the raw video files after exporting the edited video?

[@lilafromyoutube]

i do but i'm going to stop saving my a-roll because it makes no sense to keep them

[@lenggokdays9261]

[@bhaskarverma8663]

[@lilafromyoutube]

[@GOP0000]

What does your channel name means? I am just curious... It means something great in my language... KZbin just suggested me your videos, I was amazed when I noticed the channel name 🤔🤔...

[@ncolours90]

[@lilafromyoutube]

[@mydestinycourse]

You have literally saved me from cutting my throat!!! THANK YOU!!

[@lilafromyoutube]

[@ConorORegan]

This video is giving me PTSD from when I was working on my last big project and my drive got corrupted which lead to me having to scramble to find a backup

[@lilafromyoutube]

hahaha that's terrible

[@bestcreator4771]

Thankyou! Lifesaver!

Woh Nelly… ya know, great info and all but dial down the caffeine intake a notch? Slow it down. Take a breath

[@lilafromyoutube]

Who’s Nelly?

[@sijilo]

😮

[@abregadoatseri4974]

Lol that takes a lot of time isn't ? 😅 Premiere pro do something good for once at least 😂

[@lilafromyoutube]

Honestly not really, the explanation takes longer than the actual archiving
