Hi there,

I am a newbie to Premiere Pro after using Final Cut for around a year.

I am just wondering if i have labeled footage with colour markers in finder whether I can copy these markers over into premiere pro - its just my way of seperating great footage from the ok footage.

Im guessing this is probably a no but I thought i would ask!

I have attached a screenshot for clarification:

Cheers

The only way is to mark them manually in premiere the same way you did in Finder. Finder tags are stored as extended attributes (ever seen these old DS_store files?) and are used only by Apple. Premiere uses metadata and EXIF, industry standard stuff. This is classic Apple "walled garden" approach to programming: they do not play well with others.

There is no Finder tag and Premiere marker integration.
