#NathanielDodson_ cuz... What a great tutorial... I have 147 high res clips to edit into a travel vid... what a time saver... Thanks so much... have a great day... :) 5.16.18
Nathaniel, THANK YOU! This tutorial came at the perfect time. I've got a project with over 240 *GB* of 4K footage to edit. Looks like I'll be bogging the network down a bit encoding all of it. Thanks again for making this and all of your other tutorials.
That was excellent! I started my search regarding this topic 2 years ago without achieving THE workflow, that suited my style. But you really hit the the hammer on the nail perfectly! You answered all my questions in ~22 min! Thank you so much! Keep making these kind of video "Masterclass".
This is extremely helpful. I've been struggling with slow rendering and have been fearful to switch over to proxy. This was extremely well put together and easy to understand. Thank you for this video!
After my first drone flight, I excitedly dropped my 4k clips into Premiere Pro, and wasn't prepared for motion-free performance. THANK you! After my camera flies around in the skies, your tutorial helps me fly around the Premiere timeline!
You call it a master class, but it's so accessible even for video editors that are just starting, like me.... I was thinking about this (not even knowing it was called this)... The 20+ minutes just flew by. Keep it up, educating the masses.....
This post is 1 year old and is still super valuable knowledge! Thank you for sharing and it was easy to understand. I did what you recommended and it what a difference it's made to my workflow. I'm new to Premiere Pro 2018, working on creating my channel and you can consider me subscribed to your channel. Lot's of valuable knowledge to learn from you!
Spectacular presentation! It showed me I don't need to be fearful of "all the extra work" I need to do in order to use proxies. A few more minutes spent on ingest, and Bob's your uncle! Thanks, Nathaniel!
Been watcNice tutorialng your vids for a good few weeks now, learning new sNice tutorialt each day. my worksoftow has improved so much since watcNice tutorialng
Use ProRes proxies or any intraframe codec (DNxHD or Cineform). Less math for you CPU & GPU to crunch on than interframe codecs like H.264. Larger file sizes yes, but much easier to work with. But overall nice tutorial for the less-experienced. Nice stuff tutvid.
I have watched this video couple of times but this time I watched to the end. Wow Nathaniel you just nail it. All my questions about my understanding of proxy answered even all this knowledge you are sharing with us are make my workflow much easier. Thank you very much and keep going 👍. Very helpful video & Greetings from Ireland
I have to learn this by heart. My wifes crochet videos are taxing my computer something terrible. I usually do 4k to 1080p during render but with this method I could perhaps deliver 4k. Thanks so much.
Amazing,,, Nothing like having low res media to work with and the fact that Premiere swap for the final. GREAT, GREAT tutorial and trick. Thanks a million.
TNice tutorials is aweso! I was feeling kinda overwheld when i first start soft but after watcNice tutorialng your tutorial video, i feel much more confident
thanks for the easy explanation, My computer doesn't need a upgrade anymore! that's the first time I could actually watch the preview without having any lag, so valuable.
Hey which software are you using for screen capture and how you manage your audio.do you directly capture audio in your mac or something else...pl help
Did you speed up the screen capture footage while Media Encoder was creating the Proxy? Or did yours just work that fast? I've had an issue with my machine taking forever to run the clips through media encoder. 16gb Ram iMac, I feel like it should be a lot quicker than it is. Any suggestions? Thank you!
how does this deal with various masks, mattes and graphics? if i've been making masks, track mattes etc on the lower res stuff will they scale up properly when i jump back up to 4k for export?
Awesome tutorial I've always wanted to take time and figure out the proxies. Only one question if you or anyone reading this could answer and maybe this was said in the video and I missed it. Do I have to do something before exporting or is it set back to the high quality files automatic? Thanks again for the great video
If you drag an encoded file from the project browser into a blank timeline, will PP create a 4k sequence or one the size of the proxy file? If the latter, what happens on export (4K or proxy size output)?
Hi ! If i have a bad computer and i want to editing 4k footage, if i have a lot of video in my timeline with proxies it could be smooth or not ? I tried to used proxies with one short video and it's smooth, but i wonder if y have a lot of video if it's gonna be smooth or not ? Thanks and if you have another idea tell me please
Thanks dude for explaining. I'll start with option 1, then do option 2. I'll be using this for my documentary shot in 4k. What version of Adobe Premiere CC are you using?
I shoot 4K to zoom in or do some movements in 1080 not to lose resolution. If I create the proxy at 360p, is the size just smaller, can I still do some position movements like the scenario I described. Hopefully I described it right. Help please
Hey great content. I really like your stuff. Question: If I make a rough cut in prelude and then export to premiere pro does/can it make a proxy edit? It seems like it just opens it up with no option for proxy.
Rendering Poxy Questions: I followed all the steps and it worked, but when I add all the proxy clips to my sequence it was yellow so I rendered the project from In to Out. When the rendering finished I no longer has the proxy clips but the 4K and I was not able to toggle back to them. Let me know what's I'm doing wrong. thanks from Miami Beach
Thanks for this video, I cant wait to try it on my next project. May I ask what you are using for screen recording where your mouse can also zoom in when you want it to? I make a lot of screen capture videos for my students in a college class & that would be very handy. I currently use camtasia. Thank you.
Thanks, great tutorial. Was just wondering: if I have some 4k, some 2k, some 1080p clips that I want to rescale partially into a 1080p timeline - do I need to make the proxies the same resolution as the source files to make them match up on export? Or will they appear the same size as the source files even if they're all 720p? Thanks
Loving this content! I've shot two music videos for a band entirely on green screen, and thanks to this I'm going SO MUCH FASTER this second time around! Literally a lifesaver.
Interesting, I have files saved in a master folder. I drag the files to my PP CC 2017 projects. Are copies of the file re-created or will PP use the file from the master folder? Thanks.
So if I edit my clips thru proxy method, the quality will decrease in the timeline but its easy and faster to work as the clips are small in size right? But when exporting the quality will automatically be exported to High Resolution ? Did i understand it correctly ?

It's a nice little feature to have in your back pocket!
creating a second track to add into the recording as I play through the first tract?
I know I have a problem when stuff like this nearly brings me to tears for how excited I am by it...

when we export these proxy files it will take more time as compared to when we work with original files
thanks in advance
Get it Got it Good You are a Premiere Pro beast :) ;)
Great video buddy! Really loved the last part with the presets. Thank you!!
Thanks dude for explaining. I'll start with option 1, then do option 2. I'll be using this for my documentary shot in 4k. What version of Adobe Premiere CC are you using?
Ohhh man, never knew proxies are beast while editing... thank you million jillion times
Hi Nathaniel, do you recommend to use proxies to edit 1080p footage too?
The best soft soft tutorial ever!
what throws off is the step sequencer. i ntally associate it with a soft/clip whether it's being used or not. also when you do
Thank you so much for that great tutorial! I have just one question left, how would you do the sharpening or noise reduction with proxy files?
I shoot 4K to zoom in or do some movements in 1080 not to lose resolution. If I create the proxy at 360p, is the size just smaller, can I still do some position movements like the scenario I described. Hopefully I described it right. Help please

Hey great job on the video. Does the rendering time of Are visual effects plugins also sped up by creating a proxy file ?
Loved the content and explanation. Super helpful.
Thanks for the tut!
Is there a way to swap all proxy video to orginal ones all at once?
So if I edit my clips thru proxy method, the quality will decrease in the timeline but its easy and faster to work as the clips are small in size right? But when exporting the quality will automatically be exported to High Resolution ? Did i understand it correctly ?
Wow.......That' s so cool. Keep going Sir. TNice tutorials motivtes too.
Brilliant tutorial. Still teaching over a year after you upload.
