Stay productive with remote collaborative editing

Collaborative editing is now included at no extra cost for all Premiere Pro and After Effects users. Prior to today’s announcement, remote collaboration using Team Projects was only available with a Creative Cloud for teams or enterprise license.

Team Projects is a cloud-hosted collaboration service that allows editors and motion graphics artists to work on projects together using Premiere Pro and After Effects. All you need to do is create a team project in Adobe Premiere Pro or After Effects to start collaborating.

Project files are stored and saved in Creative Cloud, and are synced locally. Inside Premiere Pro or After Effects, you can see who else is in the project. Sequence locking ensures no one else can make changes to something you’re working on and makes it easy to hand off edits between collaborators. It’s like working in the same editing room from hundreds of miles away.
