Creating projects

The Project Hub is the starting point for new and recent work.

Create a project

1. Select New Project.
2. Enter a project name and choose the initial settings.
3. Confirm to open the editor.
4. Save the project to a stable location before importing irreplaceable media.

Project files store timelines, compositions, effects, color grades, masks, tracking data, captions, and workspace state. Source media remains external and should not be moved or renamed after import.

Open a project

Use Open Project for a project file that is not in the recent list. Recent project entries display their path and last-opened state.

Autosave

Autosave copies are kept separately from the main project file. A manual save remains the authoritative version you control.
