Export of timeline sequences from laptop to studio workstation using CS5.5.2 and i7

[Chris Tompkins]

Are you looking to open up the project on another computer?
Or, are you looking to export a video file to be opened up on another comp.?

Well, to open up your project on another comp you would transfer:

1. Adobe PP Project File
2. All video and Audio files in the proj.
3. All other media used in the proj.

Now, the version of CS needs to be the same or newer on the machine you are going to. You’ll need to re-link your media, point the edit app to the location of the media files.

To transfer just a video clip.
Export from the sequence to a hi res file.
Ex: on a mac, I would create a “P2” file – which can be opened up on any pro editing system going forward.

or a MOV file using Prores,

or use QT uncompressed,

If on a WIN machine, use the AVI equivalent. But you can still use the P2 option for a WIN to WIN machine or a Mac to WIN or whatever.
