What the Projects Dashboard Does
The Projects Dashboard allows you to:
• View all video projects in one place

It serves as your main navigation hub inside Pictory.
Step 1: Open the Projects Dashboard
After signing into Pictory AI, you land directly on the Projects Dashboard. If you are already in the editor, click Projects in the top menu to return to the dashboard.
You will see a grid or list of your existing projects.
Step 2: Understand the Project Cards
Each project appears as a card showing:
• Thumbnail preview
• Project name
• Last modified date
• Status indicators
Project cards help you identify the correct file quickly, even if you manage many videos.
Step 3: Search for a Project
Use the search bar at the top of the dashboard to find projects by name. This is helpful when your workspace contains many drafts or when working across campaigns.
Step 4: Filter Projects for Better Organization
The dashboard includes filters to help you stay organized.
You can filter by:
• Recent projects
• Completed projects
• Drafts
• Shared projects
• Projects sorted by date or name
Filters save time when navigating large content libraries.
Step 5: Open a Project
To continue working on a video:
Click the project card
Pictory opens the editor
You can resume editing where you left off
All scenes, audio, branding, and settings are preserved.
Step 6: Duplicate a Project for New Versions
Duplicating is helpful when creating similar videos or multiple variations.
To duplicate:
Click the three dot menu on the project card
Select Duplicate
A new version appears in your dashboard
This is ideal for recurring content such as weekly updates, social clips, or campaign variations.
Step 7: Rename Projects for Clear Organization
You can rename any project to keep your dashboard organized:
Click the three dot menu
Select Rename
Enter a new project title
Use clear naming conventions such as:
• Client name + project
• Campaign + date
• Platform type
• Version identifiers
Clean organization helps teams work efficiently.
Step 8: Delete Projects You No Longer Need
To remove an outdated or unused project:
Click the three dot menu
Select Delete
Confirm removal
Deleting old projects helps declutter your workspace.
Step 9: Access Brand Kits and Instant Templates
From the dashboard, you can also open:
• Brand Kits

This central access point makes it easy to begin new branded projects quickly.
