How do I merge projects in Premiere?

Published in Premiere Project Merge 2 mins read

Merging projects in Adobe Premiere Pro, specifically those stored within a Creative Cloud Library, follows a direct process using the Library panel. This allows you to combine the contents of multiple projects into a new, single project file.

Here is a step-by-step guide based on the provided method:

Merging Projects Using the Library Tab

If your projects are saved within a Creative Cloud Library and you wish to merge them using this feature, follow these steps:

  1. Head to the Library tab.
  2. Choose Select. This option allows you to pick which items within your Library you want to act upon.
  3. Select the projects you want to merge. Navigate to the projects you wish to combine and select them. You will likely need to select more than one project to enable the merge function.
  4. Select Merge. Once multiple projects are selected, the "Merge" option should become available.
  5. Enter a new project name. You will be prompted to name the new project file that will contain the merged content.
  6. Select Merge projects. Confirm your action to begin the merging process. Premiere Pro will create the new combined project.
  7. Select Done. Complete the process once the merge is finished.

This method is particularly useful for managing project files stored and shared via Creative Cloud Libraries.

Please note that this specific method using the Library tab is one way to combine project content. The more traditional method of combining project content (like sequences, bins, and clips) involves using the File > Import function from within an open project, navigating to another project file (.prproj), and importing desired elements. The steps provided here are specific to the Library-based merging feature.
