It is an easy and very quick process, as you will see below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Select the <strong>wrench<\/strong> tool. You will find it in the <strong>Timeline<\/strong> panel. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Activate the <strong>Show Sequence Label Color<\/strong> option, as it is disabled by default. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A color will appear to the left of the sequence name. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/premierepro11.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-390845\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With colors you can distinguish between sequences and easily know what each sequence is about. However, this is not the only organization option within Premiere Pro; we also have <strong>markers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Markers<\/strong> can help you highlight the most important points of each clip. With them, you can identify when a specific action occurs and have it as a reference. The types of markers that exist within Premiere Pro are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Comment Marker<\/strong>: with them we can add comments.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chapter Marker<\/strong>: in a finished video we can jump to different points through them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Segmentation Marker<\/strong>: define ranges to automate workflows.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Web Link<\/strong>: allow adding links to specific websites.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flash Cue Point<\/strong>: allows embedding metadata in the video. You can access them via ActionScript in Adobe Animate projects.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adding your own markers is a simple task and you can do it from the&nbsp;<strong>source monitor, the timeline, or the effects control panel<\/strong>. We will explain it to you in order:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Open the source monitor<\/strong> from the <strong>Project<\/strong> panel and place the playhead at the point where you want to add a marker.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finally, select <strong>Markers &gt; Add Marker<\/strong>. Markers added from the source monitor are always retained, whether the clip is in the timeline or not.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/premierepro12.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-390852\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to add them from the <strong>timeline<\/strong>, you will see that the process is not very different:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you want to add it from the <strong>timeline<\/strong>, drag the clip there and place the playhead where you want to position the marker.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Markers &gt; Add Marker<\/strong> or press <strong>M<\/strong> directly from your keyboard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, you can also do it from the effects control panel:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Move the player to the point where you want to add the marker.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Right-click (Windows) or press <strong>Control<\/strong> and click at the same time (macOS) on the timeline ruler.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the <strong>Add Marker<\/strong> option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To see all the markers of a project, go to <strong>Window &gt; Markers.<\/strong> If you want to know more about a specific one, just <strong>double click on it<\/strong> to get all the details: colors, entry points, exit points, comments, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If what you want is to quickly navigate between your bookmarks, you can select it from the timeline and go to the next ones from <strong>Marker &gt; Go to Next Marker\/Go to Previous Marker. <\/strong>You can also move the site bookmarks by dragging them on the timeline from the source monitor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Change the color of your markers in Premiere Pro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When adding markers, you will see that the <strong>green color<\/strong> is the one assigned by default. You can easily change this preference from the Premiere Pro options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To do this, simply go to <strong>Edit<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Keyboard Shortcuts<\/strong>. On macOS, the path changes slightly to <strong>Premiere Pro<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Keyboard Shortcuts<\/strong>. In the Command section, add the keyboard shortcuts you want for each color. To see the list of colors, type <strong>Marker<\/strong> in the search field and scroll to the end of the <strong>Markers<\/strong> section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/premierepro13.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-390854\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Adobe Premiere Pro\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-m\/p\/7617a190-96d0-11e6-a402-00163ec9f5fa\/2567003245\/adobe-premiere-Download-Adobe-Premiere-Pro.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Adobe Premiere Pro<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/adobe.prf.hn\/click\/camref:1101lr4vs\/creativeref:1101l130948\/pubref:sponsored25article29\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/adobe.prf.hn\/click\/camref:1101lr4vs\/creativeref:1101l130948\/pubref:sponsored25article29\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you have ever worked on a large project in Adobe Premiere Pro, you will know how easy it is to get lost among files and clips.
