No ProRes preset in CC?
I just made the jump with CC and was surprised to not find a ProRes preset folder in the New Sequence Menu. There is a DNxHD as expected but no ProRes. Am I missing something?

Yes no ProRes preset in Premiere Pro CC. You can create your own ProRes preset though:)

I’m a Windows user, but I was under the impression the Mac version has some ProRes presets.
When you make the custom preset, keep in mind that the preview render format will be the key piece.
Premiere Pro really only looks at frame rate, size and pixel aspect to set a sequence. To benefit from smart rendering, you would probably want sequence settings with preview renders set up for all the flavors of ProRes you use…422HQ, 4444, etc.
The presets that are linked below look as if they’re for Media Encoder, so I’m not sure they’ll help you.
Also…I’m not sure how this works on Mac, but on Windows QuickTime media does not usually “auto-create” the right type of sequence if you choose to just drag the clip onto the “new item” widget…FYI.

If you load those presets into AME they are then available inside PPro’s output settings.
Set up ProRes sequence presets this way:

Thank you all for your answers. I will prepare my own presets then. But is there a reason why Adobe didn’t include them in the first place?

Yes it doesn’t make any sense they didn’t include Prores presets within CC because you’ve to be really exact to get smart rendering working with Prores. So you have to have exactly same sequence settings and export settings. Actually having different sequence and exports settings and having some options like maximum render quality etc. in both places is bad UI design and I hope Adobe one day builds this from ground up.
But I guess the reason there isn’t Prores presets currently is that there’s no native support for Prores in Windows or OS X Lion. Native support for Prores works currently only in OS X Mountain Lion.

[Tapio Haaja] “there’s no native support for Prores in Windows”
Depends on your perspective of “native” I suppose. Since Apple seems content to leave Windows stuck with 32 bit QT 7.x, Adobe has done a pretty good job of handling it on the Windows side. At NAB 2013 we were running a 4K timeline on a Windows PPro CC system, and the bulk of it was various types of 4K ProRes.

Mac mountain lion is nice, but would be nicer if I could export windows media
from ame like PC version. 🙂 -
The native ProRes export is limited to Mac 10.8.x, so the presets are provided as an added download that was mentioned in earlier post. .epr presets should work between AME and Premiere Pro.
As far as WMV export on Mac, feel free to submit a feature request.

Once I download the ProRes presets, where do I place the folder for both AME and PrPCC?
Thanks!
