Chapter 11: Producing Final Video
hen you have finished assembling and editing clips in the Timeline, you can
generate the final video. The options you choose when exporting the final video
depend on how it will be used. This chapter will help you produce high-quality
videos for different purposes:
•
Record the Timeline directly to videotape as it plays from your computer.
•
Export an AVI or QuickTime video file for viewing from a hard disk, removable cartridge,
or CD-ROM. Through plug-in software modules, Premiere can also export formats provided
by other software manufacturers or by software included with video-capture cards.
•
Create a simple video sequence by linking clips together.
•
Export a video file for viewing over the World Wide Web.
If you want to create videotape or motion-picture film from a Premiere project, you must have
either the proper hardware for video or film transfer or access to a service provider that offers
the equipment and services you require.
About output settings
When you output a video program, the settings you adjust to control the output depend on the
kind of output you want:
•
When you record the Timeline or a clip to videotape as it plays back on your computer,
the output is controlled by the Video Settings, Audio Settings, and Keyframe and Rendering
options in the Project Settings dialog box.
•
When you export the Timeline or a clip to a video file or still-image file, the output is
controlled by the Export Settings available through the File > Export command.
