Import files with the Import command

You can import individual clips, selected clips, or whole folders of clips with the File > Import, and File > Import Recent File commands.

Note: If you import a file and it appears horizontally or vertically distorted (stretched), its pixel aspect ratio could be interpreted incorrectly. Change the pixel aspect ratio for the file if necessary. Adobe Premiere Pro continuously rasterizes EPS images, so you can scale these files without pixilation.

To import clips, choose File > Import. Locate and select a file, or hold down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) and select multiple files. Click Open.
To import a recently imported clip, choose File > Import Recent File > [filename]. (The filename may not appear if Adobe Premiere Pro preferences have been reset.)
To import a folder of clips, choose File > Import. Locate and select the folder, and then click Import Folder. The folder, with its contents, is added as a new bin in the Project panel.
To import a numbered still-image sequence as a movie file, choose File > Import. Select the first file in the series. Check Numbered Stills in the Import dialog box, and click Import.
