Producing Final Video
5 Click Next, and confirm video settings (see “Exporting video files” on page 304). Make sure
the frame rate is the same as the project frame rate. Then click OK.
Note: If the video contains interlaced fields, select Keyframe and Rendering Options from the menu
at the top of the dialog box, and for Field Settings select Upper Field First if the original source video
is field 1 dominant, or Lower Field First if the original video is field 2 dominant. If you don’t know
the field dominance of the original video, ask the creator of the original video.
6 Specify a location and filename, and then click OK.
After editing the filmstrip and saving it in Filmstrip format from Photoshop, you can use it as
a clip in a Premiere project by importing it as you would any other compatible file. See
“Importing clips” on page 120.
Exporting a still image
You can export any frame or still-image clip to a still-image file. The frame is exported from
the current time position in the Timeline, Clip window, Source view, or Program view.
In Windows, Premiere can export files to the Graphics Interchange Format (.GIF), Targa
(.TGA) format, TIFF (.TIF), or the Windows Bitmap (.BMP) format. In Mac OS, Premiere
can export files to the Graphics Interchange Format (GIF), Macintosh Picture (PICT) format,
Targa format, or TIFF. Support for file formats is provided by plug-in modules stored in the
Plug-ins folder.
To export a still image:
1 Choose File > Export > Frame.
2 Click Settings.
3 Choose a File Type. Click Advanced Settings for the file type you chose (if available),
specify options, and click OK. For the Advanced Settings available for GIF, see “Animated GIF,
GIF Sequence, and GIF” on page 314.
4 Click Next. In the Video Settings panel, specify the Frame Size and color Depth.
