need to send out multiple still frames from project based on markers
Posted by Jason Brown on May 2, 2013 at 2:22 pmIs there a way to batch out multiple still frames from one project (timeline)?

May 2, 2013 at 3:48 pmAutomator would probably do that pretty easily.
Just set up keystroke equivalents for “next marker” and then choose whether you want to export a frame, or maybe make it simpler and have automator drag a fixed selection based on window position and grab a screenshot from the interface?
Just thinking out loud, but I often forget about Automator – but it’s a good tool to be familiar with – and if you own a Mac, you already own it!
