Exporting shots individually
I have a bunch of shots I want to use premiere pro to convert to ProRes 422 HQ for me.
I want all of these shots to retain the same name that I’ve brought them in as.
Is there a way to batch export them?
Right now my only knowledge is that I can drag them into a sequence and export, which would be one long export with all of the shots. I need each of them individually. Surely PPro can do this!
Thanks!

Nope. One clip per sequence then export all the sequences, or all clips in a sequence and that gives you one giant sequence.
However, if you haven’t changed the name in Premiere Pro from the original file’s name you can just drag the originals into Adobe Media Encoder and do it from there. If you have renamed them in Premiere just follow my last paragraph after transcoding to relink the Premiere files to the transcodes.
Using CS5.5 (don’t have 6 so some things might be slightly different), set the output directory in preferences, drag the first file over and set up your compression preset, drag the rest of the files over (they’ll assume the preset of the first file you did) and hit the play/start/submit button (whatever it’s called).
Once you get that done I’d just rename the original file folder with _original after it, make the transcodes the folder the same name as the original folder was and open Premiere – should relink to the transcodes that way without issue.

Michael pretty much hit it on the head. We’ve gotten this request post CS6 and we’re logging it as a feature request.
You can create a watch folder with your convert preset and then drag the media to that folder. From there, it should churn away at the files and then you should be able to replace them in fairly short order.
Hope this helps,
