Exporting a Play Range

If you have defined a play range for your project, you can export the entire length of
the project, or export only the play range.

To export a play range:

m

Choose File > Export, then turn on the “Use play range” checkbox.

For information about setting a play range, see “

Defining the Play Range

” on page 359.

Export a Selection

The Export Selection option allows you to export only certain elements in your project.

To export a selection:

1

Select at least one file in your project in the Project pane or Timeline.

2

Choose File > Export Selection.

3

Follow the same steps as for regular exporting. For information about exporting, see

Exporting Your Project

” on page 1148.

Exporting with Compressor

You can export your project using the Apple Compressor application. When you
export using Compressor, you can use the presets included with Compressor for your
exported file.

There are two ways you can export a Motion project using Compressor. From within
Motion, you can choose File > Export Using Compressor. From within Compressor, you
can drag the Motion project into the Batch window.

When you export your project using Compressor, Motion saves a temporary copy of
the project. You can continue working with the project while it is being exported, or
work on another project in Motion.
