ADOBE PREMIERE ELEMENTS 11 CLASSROOM IN A BOOK 77
3 Take these steps to make sure your Organizer looks the same as the figure.
• In the Organizer menu, choose View > Media Types. Make sure photos,
video, and audio are all selected.
• Choose View > Details, View > File Names, and View > Grid Lines to show
these elements.
• In the Sort By list box on top of the Organizer’s Media browser, make sure
Oldest is selected.

Note: If you’ve been working with Adobe Premiere Elements and the Organizer for a while, you’ll
likely have multiple projects and folders in the panel. Find and click the Lesson04 folder; the content
in the Organizer should be close to what you see in the figures.
Now that we’re all looking at the same screen, let’s start tagging.
쎲
Note: The Adobe Organizer can display all clips in a Timeline view (in Media view, click View >
Timeline) that displays content by data, which can be a convenient way to find some clips. You just
move along the timeline, click any clumps of sequential clips in the timeline, and they appear in
the Media browser. Of course, you need clips in the Organizer to create the clumps, so until you
populate the Organizer, this view won’t provide that much value.
쎲
Note: You can
play any video file in
the Organizer or view
any still image in the
Organizer by double-
clicking the video or still
image in the browser
and then clicking the
Play button in the
preview window that
appears. Close the
window to return to
the Media browser. Still
images are displayed in
an expanded window in
the Media browser; click
Grid (
) on the left of
the toolbar immediately
above the image to
return to the Media
browser.

Note: Your screen
may not match
perfectly what’s shown
on the page, but the
minor differences
shouldn’t keep you
from completing any
exercises.
