Adobe Premiere Pro
Earwig for Premiere Pro

Your set markers, built into
your Premiere project.

A panel inside Premiere Pro. Insert your camera card and Earwig automatically syncs your footage to the moments you logged on set, and builds your timelines into a dated bin.

Version 1.0.3 ·Beta ·Mac & Windows·Premiere Pro 2024+

Your card is the source. No importing first.

You don't copy footage into a project and then hunt for the good bits. Insert the card and Earwig sees it straight away, and automatically syncs it to the markers your phone logged on set.

01

Insert the card

Earwig auto-detects the camera card the moment it mounts. Already offloaded? Point it at the folder instead.

02

It syncs itself

Earwig automatically syncs your footage, placing every marker frame-accurately — nothing to set up.

03

The right clip, always

Every marker lands on the exact take you shot — you're never handed the wrong film.

04

Build the timelines

Selects cut on your marked words, a Cutaways reel, and an All-Markers timeline — in a dated bin with Footage and Timelines folders.

Where to find it in Premiere: open the panel from Window ▸ Extensions ▸ Earwig Sync. The card-scan lives at the top of the sessions list.

How to install

One installer script. About two minutes.

  1. You'll need Premiere Pro 2024 or newer, on Mac or Windows.
  2. Download the panel above, Mac or Windows, and unzip it.
  3. Run the installer script. Mac: double-click Install Earwig Sync.command. macOS blocks it the first time because it comes from the web rather than the App Store: click Done, open System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security, scroll to Security, click Open Anyway, then confirm. On macOS 14 or earlier, right-click it and choose Open instead. Windows: double-click Install Earwig Sync.bat. It switches on Adobe's setting for panels installed outside the Creative Cloud marketplace and copies Earwig Sync into Premiere's extensions folder.
  4. Earwig needs ffmpeg (a free, standard media tool). Mac: install Homebrew, then run brew install ffmpeg in Terminal. Windows: the installer offers to fetch it for you (winget install Gyan.FFmpeg).
  5. Quit and reopen Premiere Pro so it picks up the new panel.
  6. Open it from Window ▸ Extensions ▸ Earwig Sync.
Beta. The Premiere panel is newer than our Resolve one — if anything behaves oddly, tell us at support@earwig.io and we'll sort it.

How to use it

From card to a built timeline, inside your open project.

  1. Sign in. Use the same Earwig email as the phone app — hit Verify & sign in. Your sessions load down the left.
  2. Insert your camera card. Earwig scans it automatically and shows which sessions it found footage for. Already copied the card to a drive? Point it at the folder.
  3. Pick your shoot session from the list. Check it over in the Markers, Transcript and Paper edit tabs — every marker with its timecode and the line that was said.
  4. Hit Build selects + cutaways + markers. Earwig automatically syncs your footage and lays the timelines down in a dated bin in your open project, with Footage and Timelines folders.
  5. Just want markers? Mark clips (no timeline) stamps your markers onto the clips themselves and skips the timeline build.
Everything stays on your computer. Your sign-in is remembered between updates, so you only do it once.
