Premier pro cs6: how to use 400 jpg images to make a movie?

I want to use about 400 jpg images to make a movie.  is there a way to add them to a sequence in a random order?

I'm not aware of a randomize feature either, but here is a suggested workflow that may make it easier than shuffling 400 images around in Premiere:
Open your images in Bridge
Move them around to meet your random requirement
Highlight all images (Ctrl-A)
Right-click / batch rename and add a sequence number to the front of each name (I like to add a text "_" too) and copy the resulting set of images to an empty directory
Import the whole directory into Premiere
Automate to timeline
I used to use Liquid and it had a wonderful freestyle way to pre-order your clips or images prior to dumping them onto your timeline, and the above workflow is how I have come to approximate the same.
Regards,
Jim

  • How do I export Premier Pro CS6 files for use with Final Cut Pro?

    In my cloud version of CS-6, I am trying to export or convert my finished work and take to my
    co-editor that uses Final Cut Pro. In "export" on my PrP file, I have the option to export as FCP "with notes."
    When I do that, and look at the notes, they basically say "Clip one did not export - Clip two did not..."
    I saw a tutorial on the web where they had the option to convert the file in Encoder from PrP file to FCP, but
    it is not an option on my Encoder in the cloud. When I try to encode the files as .mov, they are tiny, and don't
    look good.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    You can take the project file and the source files to FCP by exporting it as an FCP XML. Other than that you may have to export the whole project as a quicktime mov or any other editable your co-editors use.

  • Can This Laptop Be Used For Premier Pro CS6?

    Developed an interest in learning to edit video but have become confused in reading all of the posts about what is the true minimum hardware requirement/setup, as compared to what is listed as System Requirements by Adobe.  Probably best to start with my initial goals.
    Here is what I was looking at doing as this journey begins:
    Purchased Creative Suite 6 Production Premium Classroom in a Book(CIB) after reading a review it would be a better start than Premier Pro CIB, which I plan on getting, if one has no experience in this field.  During research feel that I would like to become a subscriber to the Creative Cloud as there are a number of products I would like to learn and use.  Basically, I am hopeful that I may use my current laptop for the beginning of my education and further down the road look at getting a more powerful system as knowledge/skills/requirements increase.  Initial video I wouild like to work with is that received from family members smart phones and will be looking at purchasing a simple video camera for short interviews and brief presentantions.  Will likely desire uploading some completed projects to the web.
    Current Hardware:
    Laptop:  Asus N53SV
    OS: Windows 7 64bit
    CPU: Intel i7-2670QM  2.2GHz Cores=4  Threads=8
    L3 Cache: 6mb
    RAM: 6MB
    Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 3000, NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M 1024 MB
    OpenGL: 3.1.0
    Display: 1920 X 1080
    Drives: (1) HD, Seagate 500GB @ 7,200 RPM partitioned as C: 186GB with OS and programs,  D: 254GB some documents
                  E: Optical DVD-RW
                  F: USB 3 connected 2 TB Seagate GoFlex External HD
    If this laptop can be used with current hardware, I wouild sincerely appreciate any suggestions for how to best utilize what is available to begin learning Premier Pro CS6.  As I will not have any time schedules that will have to be met I can accept that this may not be the ideal system.  Just hoping it can be a start.
    If any further information is required about the laptop please let me know and Thank You for your time with this question.

    That's not a bad setup at all to get started with small projects.
    We all have different budgets and patience. You may be OK with what you have. And if it seems too sluggish - your rig would be for me , the following would help Premiere Pro performance:
    - increase RAM to 16GB (about $140 per eBay pricing from a seller with high ratings a few minutes ago)
    - add another drive; my favorite choice with your laptop would be a Seagate Momentus 750gb drive installed in a NEWmodeUS.com optical bay caddy (slips into your laptop)
    Regards,
    Jim
    Exactly what I have done, and it is great.
    You can get the caddy here:

    I had this setup for my old HP and have a caddy ready to install for my new Dell Precision as well. You can either get an external house for your DVD drive, or get an external one - they are quite cheap.

  • Verifying 64-bit in premier pro cs6 teacher edition

    I have just bought adobe premier pro cs6, teacher edition and installed it in my 64-bit os windows.  Everything came on fine until I tried to insert the clip into my powerpoint and I got this message: "Powerpoint cannot insert video from the selected file. Verify that the necessary 64-bit codec for this media format is installed, and then try again."  How do I verify that this codec is installed.  Is there a premier pro cs6 for 64-bit?    Chudi

    Premiere has been 64bit exclusively ever since CS5. Whatever issues you have are mundane CoDec issues, but since you have not provided any details on what render settings you used, what system, what version of PP, how you try to embed the video and a gigazillion otehr things, nobody can know.

  • Premier Pro CS6-Capturing Footage, Serious Surprising Issue

    I started editing using final cut pro 7 and i'm making the transition into the adobe video world.  Premier is very simlar to final cut, but I think premier is much better as long as you can find your self around.
    I chose to capture vhs tapes through a fw 400 to a 800 into my mac with premier instead of final cut.  The reason for this is, i noticed that premier had a much better proc amp luma to it then fial cut did.  Meaning the capture window in final cut 7 was much darker then in premier pro cs6.
    The Final cut capture window is on the left and the premier capture window is on the right.
    Now this is a very good thing and this is why i chose to capture in premier instead.  Does premier have capture presets like final cut does?  I'm captureing vhs tapes that are 2 hours long and average to about 30/35 gigs a pop cuase their .movs.  Is there anyway to capture as a mpg2 and call it a day?  Thank you.

    As far as I know, PPro (both Win and Mac) capture digitised tapes into the DV AVI codec... on Win it is AVI and Mac it is MOV... but the internals are the same
    What is your digitising device... and does it come with it's own software?
    But, do be aware that the DV AVI codec, at about 13Gig per hour, is as good as it gets for editing
    If you do use other software to capture to a compressed format, you lose a great deal of the original picture quality
    I hope this old link is still active... Why not edit mpeg http://tangentsoft.net/video/mpeg/edit.html

  • I've Got The HDV Capture BLUES From Premier Pro CS6

    I am attempting to capture HDV footage from my Sony Z1U camera in Premier Pro CS6.  When I do so, the file type saved in my designated location is an MP3 file, which I know is not correct.  The captured footage never gets into the program, it just remains on the disk as an MP3 file type.  Then when I try to Import that file into Premier Pro from the disk, I get an error message saying "There Was An Error Decompressing Audio or Video"  Does anybody know why a captured HDV file would wind up on the disk with an MP3 type name?
    Thx.

    You scared me a bit. I upgraded from Premiere Pro CS3 to Premiere Pro CS6 and I haven't had a need to capture anything yet. So, while I do like using HDVSplit, I thought I would try capturing from my Sony HDR-FX1 just to see what happens.
    I turned off the PC, got out the camera, connected the Firewire cable (I blew the firewire port on this camera once. I will NOT do it again.)
    I started a new project. Now, the first thing I noticed was that the default is to capture DV. So I changed that to HDV.  See the image below:
    After that, it was a simple matter to capture the HDV. I dropped it on the "New Item" button to create a new sequence with the exact right properties. Then I trimmed it a little on each end. It was so cool that there was no line above the clip, meaning that no rendering was required. It never used to be so easy. I then used the Vimeo 1080 60p preset and uploaded it to Vimeo. No video or audio effects. This is how it was recorded.
    So, since it worked for me, let's see if we can get enough details from the people having trouble and see if it is user error or a bug I didn't see.
    Oh, just in case there are any Disney World fans, or anyone who just loves Christmas lights, here is what I captured.

  • Does Adobe Premier Pro CS6 and After Effects CS6 support the graphic found in the new late 2012 27" iMac?

    Hi there guys! I´m very, very, VERY close to buy a full configuration iMac (the late 2012 27" model) but I have reed in different forums that Adobe Premier Pro CS6 and other applications from Adobe such as After Effects DO NOT support the graphic cards found in the new iMacs....
    is this true??????
    i really wouldn´t understad the logic behid the decission of picking a graphic card that is not supported by one of the leading video editing sofrware used today.... specially when this computer is suppoused to be an Editing Animal....

    Hi there Daniel, thanks for paying attention to this subject. Today I got an answer from Larry Jordan from his blog (I believe he is one of the "videoguys" from http://videoguys.com and he said that actually adobe does not support those GPU that we will find in the new late 2012 iMacs. However it seems there is a way to make that work out.....
    here is his review on his new iMac, at the very botton you will see comments from people and his answers... one of the last coments is mine regarding this subject, this is what I asked and his answer:

    Larry Jan 18, 2013 11:10When I contacted Adobe about this a couple months ago, just after the release of the new iMacs, I was told that Adobe did not support the graphics card at that time. There is, however, a workaround, which I’m hoping to write up this weekend.Larry

  • Why doesn't Premier Pro CS6 accept m2P videos?

    I have an m2P video that I can import directly into Premier Pro CS4 with no problem and work on but when I import it into Premier Pro CS6 I get the error:
                                 "There was an error decompressing audio or video"
    I've tried changing the extension  to mp2 and mpg but the result is the same.  I've tried converting the file to mpg with TMPGE, excluding the audio, and the result is still the same.  There seems to be something is some header that stops Premier Pro CS6 from accepting this file. Another m2P video I have behaves the same way.
    Does anyone know what this might be or how I can find it? 
    Thanks

  • Premier Pro CS6 and Encore

    I am new to Premier Pro and I am using CS6 downloaded on a monthly basis.
    I shot footage using Canon 60D and Sony EX3.  All has gone very well up to yesterday.  All the editing was Ok and everything in order.  Then I found I could not export to Mpeg 2 DVD  so downloaded the latest update and that fixed that issue.  I then exported 1 minute of footage which was the 60D footage as a test. All OK.  No work carried out in encore at this point.
    At some point later I looked at the timeline in premier pro and noticed that all the Sony footage was now red with the project window saying media off line.  In the source monitor I cannot see any of the composite video and this is greyed out on the menu and I only see the waveform.  The video seems to have disappeared but if I check the info on each clip it still seems to be there as each clips indicated it is 3 - 4 GB.
    So.... I need to know what has happened and how I rectify this problem.  I am obviously worried that my source material has gone but my rational head tells me it will be somewhere.
    I have tried a totally new project and have the same issue.
    Somebody help please?

    I think I first need to be able to confirm my raw footage on the external
    hard drive is still good.
    OK, the Source Footage is on an external HDD.
    Are you on a Mac, or PC?
    If you are on a PC, is the drive letter assigned to that external HDD, by the OS, the exact same, as when you Imported the footage?
    For some tips on using external HDD's, this article might be useful: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4542396#4542396

  • Laptop for Premier Pro CS6 (and CS6 suite)

    We are wanting to either purchase the CS6 suite which includes Premier Pro CS6, or get a subscription to the Creative Cloud. Our quandary is that I need a new computer to get up to specs. Although building a desktop would probably be ideal, I would like to get a laptop that I can use for other purposes during the work day, and for editing short videos when needed (5-20 minutes in length). Can someone school us on the feasibility of using either a new macbook pro (i7, 8GB Ram, 1GB video) or a new Dell XPS 15z (Win7, i5, 8GB RAM, 1GB GT 525M video) and if anyone is successfully doing this... or if anyone tried it unsuccessfully. Can Premier Pro, specifically, run on these laptops with no problem? Do i need to use additional harddrives (oerhaps a thunderbold external)?
    Thank you!

    ....consensus on this forum is to STAY AWAY from Dell and Mac......editing today's demanding codecs requires a beefy, well thought out laptop suited for the task. Some beefy gaming laptops from Asus have the necessary components, along with MSI , Sager and others,
    ADK has laptops set up and tested specifically for video editing. Read the current and previous posts here on this forum regarding your question....it has been asked innumerable times before!! Before you "jump in the water" there is much to learn on this forum regarding the technical requirements to successfully edit digital video using PPro....especially from Harm Millard, Bill Gehrke,  Eric and Scott at ADK, and others.
