Once you have created your project, opened a project or linked a project, you can then start to import assets from Curator into your Adobe Project. Importing assets works similarly as if you were importing them from a folder on your system, or folder on your drive or network location. Instead, you’re importing them from Curator, not a system folder.
- Curator sub-clips can be imported into Premiere Pro.
- Curator sub clips cannot be imported into After Effects
This section will also guide you on how to set your import preferences and then how to import a proxy (lo-res) or a hi-res asset.
Importing assets into your Adobe Project will ensure that your Adobe project is referencing the asset to use in the project. The file itself still remains stored in Curator. Thus, when you are reviewing the asset in your project, scrubbing on the timeline in a monitor or sequence, you are watching and editing with the asset stored in Curator, not downloaded to your system. Clever, right? Working with Adobe
Importing assets into your project will always connect them immediately allowing you to stream the asset in your Adobe Project. You have the option to keep the asset as a reference in your project and disconnect the asset from Curator if you don’t/won’t need the asset at the time. This will help speed up your project load. This is the equivalent to Adobe reading ‘media offline’ if the asset has moved locations.
