FEATURE REQUEST: Collaborate a Premiere Production like a Team Project

In a Premiere Team project I can invite other editors from all over the world.

It would be nice to have a Premiere Production have the same collaboration benefits, where the Production project is saved in Adobe Cloud, and synced with invited users.

 

But since I currently work on a massive project I organize the project in a Premiere Production project.

For myself, that works out very well.

At the moment I need some other people to work on the project as well. In a Premiere Production that's not (yet) possible. It is, but I read that it's not too stable.

 

I would simply copy the entire project to a large (transport) drive and ship it to the collaborator.

The collaborator will just copy the files to his system.

We set up some kind of sync process to sync new files in the future.

I would add the collaborator to my Production Project.

The collaborator will probably have to re-link some files, to have his projects refer to his local files, while my file references are referencing my local files.

 

From there on, things will work the same way as if another editor works on a Prodcution Project on my shared network.

 

A work around could be to add some sort of VPN. But in my experience that's quite a hassle to get it working right. Especially when the people involved are not IT nerds.

There could also be a security risk, when using a VPN. I would not like every collaborator to just connect to my network.

Kes is correct ... and my partner and 'we' have been using LucidLink since the "proof of concept" days. It's been simply awesome to work with.

 

He calls on WhatsApp that he's added a folder of Ae comps or exports on the LucidLink 'virtual drive' on his Mac. Which means its getting uploaded to the Amazon S3 servers in London our filespace resides on. (He's in Cape Town SA, we're in Oregon USA.)

 

Within seconds, the folder and then individual files appear in my virtual drive. I can immediately go to Pr and import them, drop on a sequence, and get playback ... even though the entire folder is still being uploaded to London from Cape Town.

 

Totally amazing. We needed 250Mpbs or better with low latency to make it work with UHD media, but as we're both running around 400Mbps, it's slick. If a file does have playback trouble, you can 'pin' it to local storage.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

Collaboration is possible with a Premiere production if you are setting things up (production, assets, scratch disks and the like) in cloud service like LucidLink or PostLab from Hedge. The Adobe Cloud isn't a cloud service as you think it is and doesn't offer the space those services would. I've been doing it myself with other editors for 5 years where one editor has access to a project inside of a production at a time while the other editor can view changes until access is relinquished. Collaboration similar to Team Projects would be desirable outcome if we go down that path.
