Say goodbye to projects as you know them. Premiere Pro is entering a new, more feature-friendly era of collaboration.At this year's Sundance Film Festival, Adobe announced a new update coming soon to Premiere Pro. And it's sure to change the way teams use Premiere on large, multi-user projects like episodic television and feature films.

It's called Productions, and it's not-so-much a new feature as it is a reimagining of the way a Premiere project is structured. Productions are a new way to manage projects, share assets, and keep everything organized when you're collaborating with a team.

Adobe is taking aim at Hollywood workflows, which shouldn't come as a surprise to people who have been following Adobe's rapid expansion into the TV and Film market. A growing number of Hollywood editors and up-and-coming filmmakers alike have been embracing Premiere Pro for a number of years.

This was the second year in a row that the majority of Sundance films (56%) were cut with Premiere Pro.

Adobe Premiere Productions originated in feature TV and Film workflows, where it's been battle-tested on projects like Terminator: Dark Fate , David Fincher's MANK and the Netflix original Dolemite Is My Name .

Over the past few years, Adobe has been working closely behind the scenes with directors and editors to bring this more feature-friendly version of Premiere Pro to the world.

Here's what you need to know.

What is a Production

In Productions, a .prproj is a lot more like a .avb.

Think of your Production as a master project folder, similar to a Final Cut Library, or Avid project, that contains subprojects, like Avid bins.

Productions are the evolution of Shared Projects, which brought a bin-based multi-project structure to Premiere Pro. Even though Shared Projects was a big step forward for managing larger multi-user projects (think thousands of assets for a feature film, or an entire season worth of TV) with Premiere Pro, Productions takes that workflow to the next level.
