Exporting razored clips as individuals rather than the entire movie?
I can’t find this issue by searching, so hopefully someone can help me out. 🙂 I’ve been lurking about in the forum since I got the Production Suite about a month ago.
I’m working on color correction for a film that was originally cut in Avid. It was exported to a Quicktime .mov which I imported into Premiere Pro 2.0. I used the Razor tool to split back to clips in the appropriate places, and have the original cut into about 250 clips.
The problem is when I export — if I try to export just the work area to make a sample .mov or even one clip at a time to send to someone else on the post team for more effects, it’s exporting the entire movie again.
Is it because the clips I made with the Razor are all the full clip with new in/out points? If so, how do I fix this? I’d like each clip to actually act like a clip. 😀 Is there a way to shrink them down? I’d like to be able to actually export individual clips and short sequences.
Thanks so much! If there’s an answer, I know someone here will know it. 🙂
Best regards,
Vel

In File>Export>Movie>Settings>Range choose “Work Area Bar” instead of “Entire Sequence.”

I’ve tried this, as well as just clicking on the clip and exporting “Entire Clip” but each time, I end up with 20 gigs worth of movie instead of one clip.

Is the Work Area Bar covering the entire sequence or did you shorten it over the clip you want, you must do this manually, there is no automatic way to adjust the length of the Work Area Bar, In/Outs or Selection doesn’t do it . .

I’d set in and out for the area, but I don’t know then if the work bar is set appropriately since I thought they were synonymous. I’ll bust out the manual when I get home and check it out. (It’s been very trial by fire, since I’m literally teaching myself Premiere as I go.)
Thank you so much,

The Workarea bar is not synonymous with the In and Out points you might set. Read up on workarea in the help files and you’ll get the idea.

Thanks, I will! I just don’t understand why I had the same issue for exporting a single click…. the manual said to click on the clip I wanted, change the settings accordingly, and then exporting magic would happen. No mention of the work area for that one.
I appreciate all of the help!

Thanks for all the help — now that I understood where the work bar was, I was able to export everything I needed and it looks great.
You guys are the best,
Vel
