Workflow for pasting frequently used media

[gimmyjones]

Hi!

I have a limited list of broadcast design elements (titles, breaks, SFX etc.) I have to paste in the program frequently enough.

Therefore I start thinking about a way to insert them to the timeline with the least efforts.

One way is to create a macro for each element.

It would be also great to assign some kind of an identificator to the certain media and paste this clip addressing to this identificator. But there's no such a possibility.

How do you guys deal with it?

Create a bin with commonly used elements.  Add normally.

Have done it from start. Want to improve speed even more.

You can also create a cc library to always have your elements handy, even in empty projects.

Thank you, yenaphe! Will try.

Maybe any thoughts about ExtendScript?

Yes, it is possible. But not in vanilla Premiere.

There are only two way to do it. AutoHotKey, or extendscript.

Either way, get ready to learn some crazy scripting...

Extendscript: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmq_t_-4GLFu_nYaEDDModw/videos

Specifically, Mute/Disable Tracks, Adding Clips into the Timeline - YouTube

Autohotkey: https://github.com/TaranVH/2nd-keyboard/blob/7c9131937b0e2d72b28301566588db26e0f8d87b/All%20Premiere...

I suggest that you submit a feature request, though. As I did. Two years ago...

Wishform - Adobe Premiere Pro
