Question

Premiere Elements 15 to Premiere PRO

I am considering upgrading to Elements Pro from Premiere Elements 15 and wonder if after spending heaps of time compiling the organizer in 15,  if I can  use it if I change to Pro or are clips just imported direct from my hard drive?

    Arthur, there is no program called Elements Pro.

    Premiere Elements uses the Organizer to manage its files. Premiere Pro uses Bridge.

    So are you asking if you can convert the Organizer catalog into a Bridge catalog?

    It's just not clear what you're asking.

    You now have the specification of my computer and hopefully, you will have also seen my post "Video clips".

    In your opinion, would you say that both me and my computer are ready for Premier pro or should I stay with Premiere elements 15 for a while?

    Premiere Pro uses Bridge rather than the Organizer:

    Digital asset management software | Download free Adobe Bridge CC trial

    What are the complete computer specs, including hard drives, (how many, what kind, what is on each, and how full)?

    Premiere Pro needs a much more powerful computer than Premiere Elements (even though it has the ability to use proxies).

    Thanks for your reply's

    To rephrase my question:  If I used Elements pro is there any way I can incorporate premiere elements 15 organizer into it.

    You say Pro uses Bridge, Is it part of Pro and could you please explain Bridge as I have not come across this?

    Thanks again

    Are you hoping to open a Premiere Elements project in Premiere Pro? That won't work.

    Or are you hoping the Elements Organizer catalog will open in Adobe Bridge?
