Naming, finding, and deleting items
Manage the clips and other items in your project using the tools to rename, find, and delete items. All clips in your project (including captured DV clips that automatically appear in the Project window after capturing) exist on your hard disk--only a reference to each clip is added to the Project window in Premiere. Whenever you rename, edit, or delete a clip in Premiere, the original file remains untouched on your hard disk.
To manage project items:
Do any of the following:
To rename a clip, select the item, choose Clip > Set Clip Name Alias, type the new name, and then click OK. In List View, you can also select the name and type a new one. To rename a bin, select the bin name, highlight the old name or backspace over it, and type the new name. To view a clip's original name or change its alias, select the item in the Project or Bin window and choose Clip > Set Clip Name Alias. Type a new name or click None to remove the alias.To rename an original source file on disk, exit Premiere and rename the file using the Windows Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac OS). The next time you open the project that uses the renamed file, Premiere will ask you to locate the file (see Opening a project).To delete an item from a Project or Bin window, select the item and press the Delete key. To delete all clips in a project that are not currently used in the Timeline, choose Project > Remove Unused Clips (also see Removing unused frames from source clips).
Note: Because Premiere stores references to clips and not the originals, deleting a clip from a project or bin removes it from the project and Timeline (if it was included there) but does not delete the corresponding original source clip from your hard disk.
To find any item in a project or bin, based on the contents of any column in the Thumbnail View or List View, select the window you want to search and choose Edit > Find. Specify options as needed and click Find. To find an item in the Project window, click the Find button ( ), specify options, and click Find.
