Create New Project
Learn about project files, and how to create and manage projects in Filmora.
The project (. wfp format) you create in Filmora contains the settings you select for each sequence in the timeline, as well as editing decisions, effects, and music used in the project.
Filmora project files don't store the source videos, audio, or images. They only save a reference to these types of media files based on the file names and locations. If you move, rename, or delete a source file, Filmora won't be able to find it automatically the next time you open a project that uses that piece of media.
Note:
For your convenience, Filmora offers you the option of archiving your source files all together with the project.Create A New Project
There are two ways to create a new project.
- Method 1: Create New Project from Startup Window
Select the corresponding Aspect ratio at the top of the Startup Window according to the video scene requirements

- Method 2: Create New Project from Menu Bar
Launch Filmora and choose New Project to enter the editing interface. You can re-create a new project under File > Project Settings.
You can also set the resolution, aspect ratio, and frame rate for the project as you like under File > Project Settings.
Note:
The default aspect ratio is 16:9, but you can change it to 1:1 or 9:16 if you want to make videos for Instagram or other social media, or you can select Custom to customize your aspect ratio.
Save A Project
After you finish your editing in the timeline, you can click File > Save Project or Save Project As, or use the hotkey Ctrl+S to save the edited project to your computer, in case you need to modify it in the future.
