Hi there,

I know this is an easy question but I am stuck.

I just did a snapshot & it has a camera click like sound. (I click on the small icon below the window).

Question is, how do I locate the file ?

Thanks a lot.

Cheers

    Correct answer Todd_Kopriva

    Are you talking about the Export Frame button in the Program Monitor panel in Premiere Pro?

    I suspect that you're not---that you're actually talking about the Take Snapshot button at the bottom of the Composition panel in After Effects.

    The reason that I'm confused is that you're asking in the Premiere Pro forum, but you mentioned the button making a sound, which happens in After Effects.

    Anyway, if you're talking about After Effects, the snapshots aren't written to disk; that's not what they're for. See this page.

    If you're talking about Premiere Pro, just click the button again, and you'll see the path to where the exported frames are written.

    Sorry Todd for the confusion.

    I am actually talking about AE & I posted on the wrong section.

    And thanks the answer is Compostion > Save Frame As

    Thanks again

      Ryan,

      Hey, I just learned something from your post - did not know that the Export Frame/Snapshot button in AE made a sound. Now I know, so all is not lost.

      Good luck,

      Hunt
