Chapter 14 Exporting Motion Projects 1161
To export a project using Compressor from within Motion:
1 Choose File > Export Using Compressor.
The Compressor Export Options dialog appears.
2 Choose an export preset from the Export Preset pop-up menu.
To see a summary of the Compressor settings, click the Summary button.
3 Choose which media to include in the export from the Include pop-up menu.
4 In the Output section of the Compressor Export Options dialog, choose whether to use
the current project settings by turning on the checkbox, or select the settings you want
to use.
5 Click Export.
The Compressor application opens, and your project is listed in the Batch window (the
main window of the Compressor workspace), along with the preset, destination, and
output filename.
6 If you want to change or add additional presets, select the project and choose the
preset you want in the Settings window or choose Target > Change Setting.
7 Choose a location for the exported file by choosing Target > Destination.
You can choose Source, Desktop, User’s Movies Folder, Cluster Storage, or Other and
browse to a different location.
If you do not specify a destination, and you have not previously saved the project, the
export file is saved in the following location:
/Users/username/Desktop/Motion Batch Export Files/
If you have previously saved and named the project, it is output to the save location, in
a folder named Motion Batch Export Files.
8 If necessary, type a new filename for the export file in the text field.
