What It Does
Project Sorter 2 watches your Premiere Pro or After Effects project and automatically moves assets into designated bins the moment they’re imported. Instead of manually dragging footage into folders after every import, you define sorting rules once and the plugin handles the rest. It works in both Premiere Pro and After Effects.
Key Features
Auto-sorting on import. Assets are moved to their target folders as soon as they land in the project, with no manual triggering required.
Wide range of sorting parameters. Rules can be built around media type, file extension, resolution, aspect ratio, frame rate, duration, file path, date created, date modified, alpha channel presence, audio sample rate, audio channels, use count, and more. Regular expressions are supported for name-based matching.
Actions beyond just moving. Once a clip matches a rule, you can move it within the project bin, move the source file on disk, rename it using wildcards (including {index} and date-based tokens), assign a label color, add a comment, or write metadata.
Mirror folder structure. Replicates your existing folder hierarchy from disk directly into the project bin, useful if your storage is already organized and you want the project to match it.
Split-view presets. Two preset configurations can be viewed side by side, making it easier to build and compare sorting setups.
Parameter conflict system. When two rules would apply competing actions to the same clip, the conflict system flags the issue so you can resolve it deliberately.
Drag and drop import. Assets can be dragged directly into the Project Sorter panel rather than going through the standard import dialog.
Who It’s For
This tool suits editors and motion designers who work on large or ongoing projects where bin organization tends to slip. Particularly useful in documentary, commercial, or corporate video work where dozens of asset types (graphics, music, selects, exports) accumulate quickly. Also practical for teams sharing projects where consistent folder structure matters.
