  • Exporting sections of a larger timeline

    I have compiled a number of clips on a time line in final cut. I would like to export from 1:30 to 2:30, 2:31 to 3:30 and so on…to create different clips in .mov
    How would i go about doing this?
    thanks!

    Mark In and Out points in the timeline. Export. Mark new In and Out points. Export that. If you want to batch export, copy the contents between marked I/O sections, into new sequences, and then batch export.

    All the best,

    Tom

    Are you exporting quicktime movie, compressor, or quicktime conversion. If Quicktime movie, make sure it’s set at “current settings”, no markers, and check the box next to make movie self contained. Import the resulting file into compressor and use that to make your mpg, h.264, etc.
