The provided reference demonstrates one method to export individual clips as separate files, which can be considered rendering each clip. Here's how you can achieve that in Premiere Pro:
Exporting Individual Clips as Separate Files (Effectively Rendering Each Clip)
This method utilizes the "Quick Export" feature along with defining in and out points for each clip on your timeline to create individual rendered files. This technique is useful for creating b-roll footage or individual assets from your project.
-
Select a Clip: In your Premiere Pro timeline, select a clip you want to render.
-
Set In and Out Points: Ensure that the in and out points are accurately set for the specific clip you want to export. This defines the exact section of the timeline that will be included in the rendered file.
-
Quick Export: Use the Quick Export function (File > Export > Quick Export).
-
Settings: In the Quick Export dialogue box:
- Choose "QuickTime" as the format (as suggested in the reference).
- Select a suitable preset. Consider the intended use of the rendered clips when choosing a codec.
- Specify a location where you want to save the exported files.
-
Export: Hit the Export button. Premiere Pro will render and save the selected clip as a separate file.
-
Repeat: Repeat steps 1-5 for each clip you want to render individually.
Batch Export using Adobe Media Encoder (Alternative Method)
While not directly shown in the reference, using Adobe Media Encoder via Premiere Pro is another powerful method to export individual clips, though it requires a slightly different workflow.
-
Create a Sequence: Ensure all your clips are in a single sequence.
-
Add Clips to Media Encoder Queue: Select your sequence in Premiere Pro, then go to
File > Export > Media. This will open Adobe Media Encoder. -
Set In and Out Points: You can set in and out points directly in Media Encoder, similar to Premiere Pro.
-
Configure Export Settings: Configure the export settings for each clip individually in Media Encoder. Choose the appropriate format, codec, and output location.
-
Start Queue: Click the "Start Queue" button in Media Encoder to begin the rendering process. Media Encoder will then render each clip sequentially according to the specified settings.
Note
This is not the same as rendering previews in Premiere Pro, which creates temporary files for smoother playback within the application. The methods above create individual, independent video files.
