It would be great to export a full timeline from Premier but instead of one video, each video clip on the timeline is exported individually. This is an option in DaVinci Resolve and I've found it to be really useful. Having to do it manually can definitely be a pain.
I've needed to do that a few times before myself and I had to do it manually. Pretty ridiculous when you think about how simple this task should really be. If there's a cut on the timeline it should create a new clip. Done. It can't be that hard for a computer to understand that.
I have to create a versioning sequence--lay out all my cuts--make the changes--lasso each set and sub-sequence them to a bin--rename each cut manually with the ill-advised keyboard changes to "enter", and then push them all to AME for encoding.
Then I pray I don't have to do the "blow out the cache, reboot the machine, toggle GPU rendering off and on" routine that the most recent AME seems to require.
So yes, consider this a very enthusiastic thumbs up to this request. 🙂
YESSS PLEASE!!!! On many projects, I need to send the client b-roll selects from a shoot. This means bringing the footage into Premiere, trimming clips, color-correcting, scaling, stabilizing, etc. Currently, there's no way to batch export the individual clips. Have to do them one by one. Super frustrating! If you're going to ditch Speedgrade, you need to incorporate some kind of dailies workflow in Premiere.
Haven't had to do this since the tape days in FCP but now that I need to it's so frustrating that this isn't an option available to us yet in 2018 - it's so basic. Tech support weren't helpful prior to finding this article to say it can't be done - yet. What's the point in dragging a clip from a timeline sequence into a project folder to export if it doesn't take any of the grade or warp settings with it? Totally useless.
Antoine: would be nice to set a base name, and then decide how it increments. We crank out hundreds of versions, and choosing say "HR00256" with an increment of "1" with each additional item on the timeline would be great. IE HR00256, HR00257, HR00258
I'm looking into it and it seems feasible, the only thing is that the timeline is actually a big tree-graph so it's impossible to know exactly what you want to export (there could be multiple clips on top of each other ! and clips don't necessarily follow each other) For now the only idea I have is let the user select a video track (V1, V2, or V3 etc..), detect all clips in that track and export the whole sequence multiple times at the in and out of each of those clips. And also render when there are gaps between the clips if gaps exists.
For file naming, you're right there are actually two issues : each clip should have its own name and there could be multiple versions of the render (which is a general PPro export issue)
Creating multiple individual clips with multiple IN&OUT points from the same timeline sequence should be a MUST from Premiere...!! I have a need to create multiple video clips from one sequence and each clip had is own in/out points ending up in a cue in Media Encoder where we can asign a different name to each clip before rendering...that will be AWSOME..!!!
It seems like what I can do right now is retrieves markers name / description (to create the filename) and in / out points of a timeline, so with that I should be able to build this feature but you'll need to put markers yourself ! I'm looking into seeing if I can retrieve all clips of a particular video track it would be more handy for you
