Manage multi-camera thumbnails in the Project panel
Last updated on
Oct. 19, 2025
Learn how to customize Premiere Pro shortcuts for faster multi-cam editing and managing clip thumbnails in the Project panel.
You can control which camera angle is in the thumbnail in the Project panel. The default thumbnail for a multi-cam thumbnail is the first camera angle. You can change this by using keyboard shortcuts.
Before you begin:
Create a project, import your clips with different camera angles into your project, and create a multi-camera source sequence.
Assign shortcuts to Select Camera 1, Select Camera 2, and so on for the different cameras. You can also set keyboard shortcuts for Select Next Camera and Select Previous Camera. However, these shortcuts only affect the multi-cam thumbnail if the Project panel is active and a multi-cam clip or clips are selected.
In the Keyboard Shortcuts panel, search for Move Poster Frame 10 Frames Back, Move Poster Frame 10 Frames Forward, and Clear Poster Frame, and assign keyboard shortcuts for these options. Select OK.
In the Project panel, select Icon View or Freeform View to see thumbnails of your clips.
Select one or more multi-cam clips in the Project panel.
Use the Select Camera # keyboard shortcuts (Select Camera 1, Select Camera 2, and so on) to choose which camera angle is displayed.
You can also set or adjust the poster frame (the thumbnail image) for your clips. In Icon View or Freeform View, select the clip, then use the keyboard shortcuts to move the poster frame forward or backward by 10 frames.
Things to consider when setting poster frames
- If a clip already has a poster frame set, it is moved forward or backward ten frames from where the poster frame was previously set.
- When a clip has an In point marked and you use this command, the poster frame moves ten frames from the clip's start.
- If you are too close to the beginning or end of the clip and there are fewer than ten frames, the poster frame is set at the first or last frame of the clip.
- When clips have different durations, some clips may stop moving the poster frame forward while others in the multiple selection continue moving their poster frames.
To clear a poster frame, use the Clear Poster Frame keyboard shortcut, which works on single and multiple clip selections.
