Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro Export individual clips AS individual clips

  • Export individual clips AS individual clips

    Posted by Hunter Hempen on January 24, 2011 at 1:34 am

    Apparently Premiere Pro CS4 doesn’t possess the ability to export individual clips in one sequence as individual files…let for if you picked them, one by one, to the encoder.

    This is essentially what I read on a different thread up on the Cow. However, all I’d like to ask is why? Does CS5 posses this ability now, or does Adobe completely ignore this feature? Was the answerer to the OP a complete idiot?

    I’m not talking about exporting ONE sequence as MANY different formats…but rather exporting MANY clips within ONE sequence as MANY individual clips.

    A horribly pathetic editor I used to use years ago (MAGIX Edit Pro) could spit out HD clips as individual files via batch processing. I just find it hard to believe that Adobe wouldn’t have this same ability.

    Thanks,
    Hunta

    Simple answer, no.

    But for a fairly quick way to do this, even in CS4…

    Right click on each individual clip and select nest (or create a keyboard shortcut if you have a million clips). What this does is create a new sequence for each clip.

    Then open Adobe Media Encoder, import the Premiere project, and using the control or shift key, select all your sequences. You now have yourself a batch encode for each clip.

    Thanks!

    I’ve been “googling” this all night and I couldn’t seem to find answers anywere.

    I will now be using this on a daily basis.

    However, you wouldn’t happen to know the reason behind NOT including a feature like that? I was kind of hoping an Adobe Rep would see this and give me a straightforward explanation.

    Thanks again!

    No problem. My best guess is that noone requested it. You could certainly submit a request, you never know.

    I cannot figure out how to import the PROJECT into Adobe Media Encoder.
    I can only import media

    I don’t have a copy of CS4 in front of me, but wasn’t there an “Add Premiere Pro sequence” under the file menu?

    If not, it may only be in CS5.

    Yes, it is there in AME CS4. It worked great.

    The idea of collecting a bunch of edits into one sequence in order to output them as a bunch of clips seems like a strange way to go about it. You can send each sequence to the Media Encoder to create a batch list or do as suggested above and import them from the Media Encoder.

    Now the feature I’d like to see them add to the Media Encoder is to pass through the sequence names from Premiere.

    Thanks for posting this technique.

    I do have a question though, when I import multiple sequences from one premiere pro cs4 project into media encoder, it does not arrange them in numerical order but it does append an incrementing number to the end of the output file name. I like it’s number appending feature, but that feature is useless for me when it doesn’t import the sequences numerically, or even in the order that I selected them. I am using the razor tool to separate difference recording sessions on a home video, then nesting each clip to create its own sequence and then each sequence is supposed to become it’s own video file after media encoder is done with them. So that I can trace any clip back to it’s original master, I’d like those files to be named in the same order that they were recorded on the original tape. So for now I’m adding each nested sequence individually and that works but I’m wondering if anyone has an idea how to do it better.

    Thanks,

    You can rename the files in Media Encoder first.

    I wanted to apply the gamma filter to all my proxy clips and export them into a new folder, but somehow this feature appears to be beyond the power of Premiere Pro. Nesting thousand clips individually cannot be an option.
    Is this such an “exotic” feature to be added to Premiere Pro?

    Totally absurd (facepalm)
