Productions in Clip Link
If your Curator license includes the Edit & Publish Functionality Module, you can use Curator alongside video-editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro. This allows you to create productions and manage your editing projects with Curator. For more information see Adobe Panel Explained.
What are Curator Productions?
In Curator, a Production is simply an Adobe Premiere Pro project file (a .prproj) that has been saved into the Curator database. You can think of it as a .prproj file that you can retrieve whenever you want.
How do I start a Curator Production in Clip Link?
Curator Productions can be created in Clip Link and also in the Curator for Adobe Panel. Check out our "Working with Curator Productions in the Curator for Adobe Panel" help article if you're working directly in Premiere Pro/After Effects
Starting a Curator Production in Clip Link couldn't be simpler! Within the main Curator Clip Link interface, simply expand the Collections and Productions panel (
) from the left-hand side of the screen and select Create New or right-click the selected asset(s) and select Create collection or production to bring up the context menu. From here, choose Production and fill in the necessary details.
Once you're happy with your choices, click Create and Curator will do the rest.
Once a production has been created, it will be searchable from within any Curator application.
Top tips for working with Curator Productions
Make sure to choose the correct Adobe application from the 'Production Type' field, as this assigns a template project file for this application to the newly created Curator Production asset.
Adding metadata to any asset makes the value of it increase significantly! Therefore, always take an extra moment to ensure the metadata is accurate. You never know when you or your team may need it.
