USING ADOBE PREMIERE ELEMENTS 8 EDITOR

Managing clips with the Organizer

Last updated 8/12/2010

You can create smart albums by setting criteria for files to be included in them, rather than by manually selecting
specific files. The contents of smart albums are automatically updated as matching criteria are added to files. For
example, if you create a smart album that includes all videos with the keyword tag, “Chiara,” additional videos are
added to that album as you give them that keyword tag.

Create an album or an album group

You can create an album or a group of new albums at any time. For example, you can create an album group called
“Vacations” and create separate albums within it, one for each vacation you photograph.

About smart albums

Like albums, smart albums contain files of your choosing. However, instead of selecting individual files or groups of
files, with smart albums, you set the criteria for inclusion. After you set the criteria, any file in the Organize workspace
that matches the criteria of a smart album will appear automatically in that smart album. As you add new files to the
Elements Organizer, those files matching the smart album criteria will also appear automatically in the smart album.
Smart albums keep themselves up to date.

Create a smart album

You can create a smart album by selecting the types of files you want included, or you can specify criteria in the New
Smart Album dialog box. Using the New Smart Album dialog box, you can specify a wider range of criteria.

Remove files from an album
