  • Randomizing a bunch of clips

    Posted by Adam Bradley on February 14, 2015 at 10:19 pm

    I have looked around and some older posts cover PART of what I’d like to do. I apologize if what I need has already been posted, but I did look around before posting! 😀

    I’m making a loop for a projector to be put up behind bands/DJs in a club. I have 100+ clips of random psychedelic videos and I want to play them back to back, dipping to black in between (I already know how to do all that). The clips are named things like “light-beads”, “light-beam-curtains” or “blue-purple-stream”, “blue-light-orbs” etc so many of the clips have similar colors and effects, but I’d rather have them randomized.

    Is there a feature in PP CC for this or can someone recommend a file-renaming utility that could help me out? Again, I have upwards of 160 clips for this and am terribly lazy. Thanks in advance – you guys are awesome!

    Open the icon view full screen, move them around and put them on the timeline with Automate to sequence.
