Thank you Dave. This is a little confusing for me because when i open Premiere it gives me the option of making a new project, or opening a already created project. So each time i capture a scene do i have to make a new project for the scene? Or can i create a new project and then individually capture scenes? In other words is there a way to continue capturing scenes once you start a project? Or do you have to keep making new projects every time you capture a scene?
