Batch Export multiple clips in Premiere pro

Since more and more customers especially from events I film at, ask for clips of overview shots or just people dancing etc. I always grade them and edit them perfectly to make sure the clips are perfect.

 

Now I do know about the nesting each clip to batch export it in media encoder I was wondering if there is a faster way? Since I am also using an adjustment layer above all the clips and constantly matching each shot and then selecting all the layers to nest is just getting a bit annoying.

I also know that you can make multiple sequences for each clip but if you have to export 50+ clips it's just so much work for something that could be so easy.

 

Is there a way or maybe a future plan where you can just select your sequence and say I wanna export each clip on this timeline individually with all the effects and adjustment layers applied?

Hi Noah,

To batch export multiple clips in Premiere Pro with your Lumetri effect applied, follow these steps:

1. Copy Timeline clips: Create a new bin in your Project panel. Select all the clips in your Timeline that you want to export and drag them into the bin. This will create new copies of the clips with in/outs that match your timeline.
2. Copy effect: Select your Adjustment Layer in the Timeline, go to the Effect Controls panel, select the Lumetri effect, and copy.
3. Paste effect: Select all the clips in your Project panel and paste. This will paste the Lumetri effect to the clips as a Source effect.
4. Export: Click Export, choose your Format, and then click Send to Media Encoder.

Cheers,
Paul

What an absolute drag of a process. Why is there no simple option of “export individual clips with effects applied” that simple does what is should do and does not require render replace and all the other messy workarounds???

Select the clips on the Timeline, do a render and replace to the codec you prefer. Include all effects. Use those as your corrected exported media.

 

Been awhile since I've done that with an AL, and I don't recall if that effect would be included.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

I agree, be nice if there were an option to export individual clips from the timeline.

 

Might be quicker for you to create a single nest of all your clips and use Scene Edit Detection. You can then drag them into a folder and export.

Thank you so much, this actually worked! Nest all cips > Scene Detection > drag clips to new bin > Select all clips in Bin > Right Click 'Export' then to Media Encoder! Adobe makes things so hard

wait no that didn't work... instead, i actually rendered out the entire section, brought that single clip back into premiere pro, scene selected (fixed up the clips that weren't cut properly) and then exported those clips from the bin.
