Exporting Mezzanine File From Premiere CS6
Hello,
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.
I’m new to Amazon Prime Video Direct, and I’m having a bit of trouble uploading my .mp4 file. They won’t take it, apparently, I need a mezzanine file of some sort. I’ve been looking all over the internet for a step by step guide as to how to export a mezzanine file from Premiere, or how to generate one from Handbrake. But all I can find are descriptions as to what a mezzanine file is, which aren’t very helpful. I’d also be open to using Media Encoder CS6 if that’s a possibility.
What I’m looking for is a step by step guide as to what settings to use in my export.
Can anyone help?
I’m running Adobe CS6, on a Windows 7 machine. I know I need to upgrade, but it’s not in the budget at this time.
Thanks again!

Thanks! I read the mezzanine article on the Amazon page earlier, but it didn’t do much for me. I’m looking more for step by step instructions.
The video tutorial on Media Encoder is good, but it seems like just a general tutorial. I’m already familiar with Media Encoder. What I’m looking for is step by step specifics and settings on how to render out specifically for a mezzanine file intended for Amazon.
Currently, I’m trying AnotherGui w2ith ffmpeg, and using it to render out ProRes 422 on a PC. Hope it works!

Well, the ProRes 422 exported o ut great. Except that it exported as an .mov and Amazon requires an .mp4. So I’m still stuck. 🙁

The Amazon Video Direct specs that Chris linked here show Pro res as an option so why do you think you need to make an mp4?
