Build Video

Overview

The Export Video feature lets you take your edited and AI‑enhanced video sequences from the Editor or Render Queue and output them as standard media files. Use it to deliver finished videos for review, publishing, or archiving.

Supported Formats

• **MP4 (.mp4)** – Widely compatible with web platforms and social media.
• **MOV (.mov)** – High‑quality format for professional editing suites.
• **WebM (.webm)** – Optimized for web delivery with good compression.
• **ProRes (.mov)** – Apple ProRes for post‑production workflows.
• **Animated GIF (.gif)** – Short looped previews for quick sharing.

How to Export

1. Open the **Render Queue** or the **Editor** preview pane where your final cut is ready.
2. Click the **Export Video** button (or choose **File → Export Video**).
3. In the dialog, select the desired output format from the dropdown.
4. Adjust export settings: resolution, frame rate, bitrate, and file naming.
5. Click **Start Export**; progress appears in the Render Queue panel.
6. Once complete, click **Download** or **Open Folder** to access the file.

Export Options

• Resolution: Choose from 720p, 1080p, 4K, or custom dimensions.
• Frame Rate: Select common frame rates (24, 30, 60 fps) or enter a custom value.
• Bitrate Control: Set target bitrate or use variable bitrate (VBR) presets for quality vs. file size.
• Audio Settings: Choose audio codec (AAC, PCM), channel layout (stereo, 5.1), and bit depth.
• Watermark & Intro/Outro: Optionally add a logo overlay or predefined intro/outro clip to the export.

Integration with Workflow

• **Render Queue** – Batch multiple exports and monitor progress in one panel.
• **Project Versions** – Tag exports with project version names; access from the Versions menu.
• **Cloud Upload** – Automatically upload exported files to connected cloud storage (e.g., Google Drive, AWS S3).
• **Share Links** – Generate shareable, secure links for stakeholders directly after export.

Tips & Troubleshooting

• For web publishing, use MP4 with H.264 codec at 1080p and 30 fps for best compatibility.
• If your export stalls, check that no other heavy renders are running in the Render Queue.
• Use ProRes exports for downstream color grading or VFX workflows.
• Large 4K exports can take significant time—consider lower‐resolution previews first.
