  • Possible to set default to “individual layers” when importing PSDs?

    Posted by Steve Martin on September 25, 2014 at 6:32 pm

    I need to import several hundred layered PSDs into Premiere. Does anyone know how to set the defaults on the dialog box to “Individual Layers” instead of ‘Merge Layers” ?? I can’t find anything in preferences, but maybe someone has a brilliant work-around?

    Also is there a way to import all of them with one click instead of interacting with the dialog box for each PSD?

    Yea, I could do it manually, but that’s a PITA!

    Production is fun – but lets not forget: Nobody ever died on the video table!

    You could first use Photoshop to export your PSD layers individually using Scripts->Export layers to files.Exporting every PSD file to a different folder as PNGs for example and then just importing the folders to premiere
