Hybrid Online/Offline Editing - Cloud Proxies, Local OCF Media, Background File Syncing

How often do you find yourself travelling/working on site and you need to make a quick change to a project you've left at the office? Or how about you want to a freelancer/remote worker to pick up an edit from afar?

So my idea is that built into a Team Project, you can render extremely efficient file size proxies - probably low bitrate H265 - and have them saved to a cloud storage server (integrate with a G-Cloud bucket, AWS, or Adobe's own) in a way that when working on the Team Project, seamlessly through Premiere all the proxies are downloaded to a local drive for you to smoothly work with. Then, when you get to export, Premiere can send the sequence to the render engine back at home where the original media is online.

So workflow is:

- Setup the edit project at office machine (MAC A), locally stored original camera files (OCF)

- Create Team Project and check a new box to enable 'Hybrid Cloud Proxies'

- MAC A renders proxies in the background and uploads them to Cloud storage

- MAC A also collects any smaller file size assets like photos/fonts etc and adds them to Cloud storage

- A remote editor (or you on location) opens the Team Project on MAC B

- Is prompted to enter a local storage location where Proxies will be downloaded

- In the background, Premiere downloads proxies and any additional assets to MAC B (prioritizing used clips first and displaying a 'media downloading' similar to 'media pending' graphic in the meantime)

- While editing on MAC B, if the remote editor imports new assets a prompt is given to sync those via public internet with a local storage device on MAC A

- The remote editor works away, eventually hitting a new button 'Remote Export'

- They chose a local storage location on MAC B where the final export will be downloaded

- On MAC A, in the background, Creative Cloud exports the sequence using the OCF

- Once exported, the file is transferred onto MAC B's local storage via public internet

- Everyone's happy and can get back to drinking cocktails on holiday and not making changes to a project the client said was definitely 100% signed off _final_v9_master_newtitle_final3_captions.mp4
