Production Workflow

Hello,

I'm trying to figure out how to combine different productions into one production. Right now we have 3 editors, each having started their own production on their own machine. We want to move the production to the cloud so we can collaborate, and need each editors contribution to be brought in into a single production. Any input in how to achieve this would be very much appreciated. Thanks! Alex

Got it! And just to confirm, you have to do this one at time? Just wondering what would happen if you selected a bunch of .prproj from a production and try to add them at once to the main production.

 

If it has to be one by one, it is what it is. I just want to make sure I understood you correctly.

 

Thanks!

Alex

No, you can grab them all.

You mention "the cloud"; are you hoping to move to Team Projects, or are you hoping to consolidate three different Productions into one Production, which you'll then share via [some cloud-based method]?

Hi Bruce,

Yes, I'd like to consolidate into one Production that's going to live on a cloud NAS - LucidLink. Thanks!

Okay, my team (who created Productions) have talked it over, and can provide some guidance.

Consolidating multiple Productions into one Production is possible, but messy. 

You can add an existing project to a production (one at a time)  to get all the projects inside one production; we recommend making the largest production the main one and add projects from the two smaller ones. 
Note: All the  links from the added projects would then be broken. Editors would need to Reassociate Source Clips from the edit menu, and make sure they link all media to the various media projects in the new, over-arching Production.  This would not be an easy task if this is a large production, if each production has only a few projects, then it would less scary.

    That might need a bit more expertise than I have ... @Bruce Bullis ... could you please assist?

      I would start with File>New>Team Project and see if that fits your needs.

      I'm a solo shop here so I don't use that feature. Wish I could help more.
