Import Media

When you have created a new composition, you can import media and then add it to your composition and start working—see Importing Media.

To import media:

1. Select File > Import or press Ctrl + I( for Windows and Linux) or Cmd + I(for Mac OS).
   

   The File Browser appears.

   
2. Navigate to the location (on your machine or network) where your media is stored. The View button at the bottom of the File browser allows you to change the Details view to a Thumbnail display in the Contents area, which is on the right side of the browser.
   
3. In the Contents area, select the media file(s) you want to import. To select multiple files, press Ctrl + click.
   
4. Click the Import button, or right-click one of the selected media files and select Import File(s).

   The media files are imported into the composition using an Image Import tool.
