To duplicate a sequence in Adobe Premiere Pro, select the sequence and choose the "Duplicate" option. Here's a more detailed explanation:
-
Locate the Sequence: In your Project panel, find the sequence you wish to duplicate. The sequence icon typically resembles a filmstrip.
-
Select the Sequence: Click on the sequence to select it.
-
Duplicate the Sequence: There are a few ways to duplicate:
- Right-click: Right-click on the selected sequence and choose "Duplicate" from the context menu.
- Edit Menu: Go to the "Edit" menu at the top of the screen and select "Duplicate".
- Keyboard Shortcut: Use the keyboard shortcut:
Ctrl+Shift+/
(Windows) orCmd+Shift+/
(Mac).
-
Rename (Optional): After duplicating, Premiere Pro usually adds "Copy" to the end of the new sequence's name. You can rename the duplicated sequence to something more descriptive by right-clicking on it and selecting "Rename."
Duplicating a sequence creates an independent copy of your timeline. Any changes you make to the duplicated sequence will not affect the original, and vice-versa. This is useful for creating variations of your edit, experimenting with different effects, or creating multiple versions of a project.
