Hallo zusammen, auch wenn ich seit über 25 Jahren Videos semi-professionell bearbeite, habe ich erst vor einigen Wochen Codec-bedingt angefangen mit Premiere Pro zu arbeiten; das Programm war mir im Vergleich zu sperrig von der Bedienung her.
Nun habe ich schon recht viele Projekte geschnitten und möchte die Clips (pro Sequenz) in der Zeitleiste nun vollkommen frei anordnen.
Pro Sequenz habe ich so im Durchschnitt 50-100 Takes/Clips. Die sind nun in der Reihenfolge, wie damals gefilmt wurde. Da ich in der klassischen Zeitleistenansicht von Premiere nicht alle Clips auf einmal überblicken kann, um zu entscheiden, wo ich jeweils welche Clips wo anders hinhaben möchte, benötige ich dazu eine Art Kachelansicht, wie ich sie von anderen Videoschnittlösungen kenne. Da habe ich Thumbnails von allen Clips in einer großen Übersicht, wo ich ganz einfach die Thumbnails egal wohin verschieben kann.
Wie bekomme ich das bei Premiere hin?

Warren's right. Use the Freeform view of the project panel, and you can set the size of thumbnails as you wish, drag/drop to reorder, stack them overlaying each other, all sorts of things.

Use the key in your language that makes the panel full screen, and it's a great way to story-board your clips.

Thanks @R Neil Haugen
Please read my answer to Warren.
Premiere causes a lot of more work in comparison to other video editing solutions.
Why not sort the clips INCLUDING ALL individuell effects per clip into an free varation?
The freeform view might help for clips without any effects. Or did I something wrong?

Here my actual workflow in Premiere:

1. Create new/empty project
2. Add a clip
3. Cut the clip
4. Stabilization
5. Color correction individual per clip
From here add next clip and repeat steps 3., 4. and 5.
Project is finished in a first step then all 30-70 clips are cutted, stabilized and color correct.
The clips are added to the projcet in the alphabetical order by videoname incl. videonumber from the camera.
Now I want to to free re-arrange the order of each clip in the timeline. Cause the timeline view don't gives a good overview of all clips I need something like your proposed Freeform view.
In first steps I made the timeline empty and added clips from the Freeform view to the timeline.
And here the effects are missing on all e.g. 60 clips I made before individual for each clip.
I tried also a workaround in order to export per batch each single clip. Also they don't export with the effects.
How you use batches for that?

I'm still working on understanding.

Every clip needs Warp stabilizer?

And you do all this inside one project, dragging the clips to a sequence in that same project?

Hi Home video,

Welcome to the community! To ensure we understand the question correctly, are you looking for a thumbnail view in the Project panel or the video thumbnails of the clips in the timeline? Let us know, we're here to help.

Hi @Sumeet Kumar Choubey,

thanks, to welcome me!
No, it is not a thumbnail view only (I have that already in the timeline per Clip):
I want a thumbnail view like e.g. in Windows Explorer and want to free arrange the clips out of the timeline.
In e.g. Magix Video X Pro is such a function, there all clips are shown on the special thumbnail view.
In this thumbnail view I can easy drag + drop each video clip to another position.
With the given timeline view in Premiere Pro this isn't really possible to re-arrange around 40-60 clips per sequenz.
