To export individual frames from your video in Adobe Premiere Pro, use the "Export Frame" button within the Source Monitor or Program Monitor. This creates a still image of the current frame.
Here's a breakdown of how to do it:
-
Locate the desired frame: Play your video in the Source Monitor or Program Monitor and pause on the specific frame you want to export.
-
Use the "Export Frame" button: Look for the "Export Frame" button (it looks like a camera icon) beneath the monitor window. If you don't see it, click the "+" button in the lower-right corner of the monitor to open the Button Editor. Drag the "Export Frame" icon onto the button bar, and then click OK.
-
Click the "Export Frame" button: Clicking this button opens the "Export Frame" dialog box.
-
Configure Export Settings:
- Name: Enter a name for the exported frame image.
- Format: Choose the desired image format (e.g., JPEG, PNG, TIFF).
- Path: Specify the location where you want to save the image. You can also choose to "Import into Project" which will bring the still image back into your Premiere Pro project.
-
Click "OK": Premiere Pro will save the frame as an image file in the location you specified.
You can repeat this process for each frame you wish to export. This method is useful for creating thumbnails or grabbing stills for other purposes.
