Working with clips after Smart Tagging
Let’s take a moment to understand what happens to clips after Smart Tagging. To
review, during Smart Tagging, Adobe Premiere Elements breaks the clip into differ-
ent scenes based on content changes (as opposed to timecode, like DV files); finds
different types of content, like faces; and rates the quality of each clip based on
factors like exposure, focus, and stability.
In the Organizer, you’ll know that the clip has been split into multiple scenes if
there is a Step Forward icon (
) on the right of the clip. Click that icon, and Adobe
Premiere Elements displays all scenes separately in the Organizer surrounded by a
border that’s a different shade of gray from the rest of the Organizer. is lets you
know that all the scenes are part of a single clip.
