8 Unless you have a burning desire to store random videos of another family on

your Photoshop.com site, under Album in the Tagging panel, click the Water

park – 2008 album, then the Delete Album button (

). Adobe Premiere

Elements will delete the Album and remove any fi les from that Album

previously uploaded to Photoshop.com.

Working with Project view

As discussed previously, Project view is where Photoshop Elements stores all clips

captured or imported into a project.  e fi lenames in Project view identify the fi les

imported into the project.

It’s important to note that fi les listed in Project view are simply references to the

clips you import, not the clips themselves.  e original clips you import are on your

hard disk and are untouched by Adobe Premiere Elements. Cutting or editing a

clip in Adobe Premiere Elements does not aff ect the original fi le. Adobe Premiere

Elements records your modifi cations along with the reference to the original fi le

in Project view.  is means that a 20 MB clip takes up 20 MB of space on your

hard disk whether you use only a portion of the clip—by trimming away unwanted

sections—or whether you use this clip in its full length (or even two or more times)

in a project.

1 To show Project view, select the Edit tab and then click Project. Or, choose

Window > Available Media. Project view lists all the source clips imported to

your Adobe Premiere Elements project. When you capture video or import

fi les, the individual clips are automatically placed in Project view in alphabetical

order, as shown here.

Note: Much of

Adobe Premiere

Elements’ tagging

and album-related

functionality is very

similar to features in

Photoshop Elements. If

you have any questions

about these features,

check Chapters 2 and

3 in Adobe Photoshop
