Custom Metadata and Searches in Premiere Pro
Ever wonder how you can organize your project at a level beyond bins? Sure bins are great, but what if you want to have more specific categories. Perhaps you need a clip to appear in 2 different bins, it fits your animals category of clips but also fits your water category of clips. There’s no need to duplicate your clip, you can use custom metadata to add more fine-grained organization to your project.
In this video. I go over how to use the four different types of custom metadata and what the benefits are, as well as some flaws that exist in the current implementation. I’ll go over how to create your own custom columns and use them to get your project more organized.
To feature request improvements to the search capabilities, specifically for better searches with boolean data and smart bins that use saved search parameters. Let Adobe know what you think here:
