How to Quickly REPLACE FOOTAGE in Adobe Premiere Pro

Hey! What's happening! I'm Alli. Sometimes you gotta replace clips and premiere. Maybe you've already put together your edit and time each cut of your footage to music and you want to replace a particular clip on your timeline with a new one. Or maybe like in my case you open up an older version of Premiere Pro or you edited with MKV files and the latest version of Premiere no longer supports those files so you gotta replace them.

Let's hop into Premiere Pro and I'm gonna show you a really fast way to do just that:

We're in Premiere Pro and I have my offline MKV file on the timeline that I need to replace with my converted mp4 version of it. It's a screencap from the software OBS, and if you're looking for a good screencap program, Will shows you how to use OBS and convert MKV files in the video linked above.

So to replace this clip, we can right-click on it and choose to reveal and project, and there's the clip highlighted let's right-click on it and choose to replace footage. This is the clip I'd like to use, so I'll select it, press select and our Clips now been replaced with the exact same footage and timing of the clip that we had already edited on my timeline when it was an MKV file. There you go back to your replace footage in Premiere Pro.

What else do you really wish you knew how to use or do in Premiere, let me know in the comments below because there's a pretty high chance I'll create a tutorial on how to do just that.
