How to convert Premiere Project to CSV

Export a shot list from a Premiere Pro project online. CutConvert reads the .prproj itself, without Premiere. It writes a CSV with one row per clip: sequence, track, clip name, media file and path, record and source timecode, duration. Use it for conform, VFX pulls, music cue sheets, or anyone who needs the cut in a spreadsheet.

  1. Add your .prproj file

    Drag the Premiere Pro project onto the drop zone. Your browser decompresses and reads it locally.

  2. Convert

    Press Convert. Your browser reads the sequences, tracks, clips, source ranges and media references. The preview shows the first rows before you download anything.

  3. Download your result

    Download the converted file, or one ZIP when you convert a batch.

Premiere project and CSV shot list, explained

A Premiere Pro project stores every sequence's cut as an object graph inside a compressed XML file. Premiere can export an EDL or a marker list, but not a spreadsheet of what is on the timeline. Even those exports need a licence. This converter reads the .prproj directly and lists every clip on every track. Each row has the numbers a conform editor, VFX vendor or music supervisor asks for: where the clip sits on the timeline, which part of which file it uses, and how long it runs.

One row per clip on every sequence and track, with record and source timecode, transitions, speed, levels and markers. Read from the .prproj. It is free to start, encrypted in transit, and converts a whole batch into one ZIP — sign in when you need large, high-volume jobs.

Premiere Project to CSV FAQ

Does it need Premiere Pro?

No. The converter decodes the .prproj object graph itself, the same reading behind the Premiere Project to XML converter. Projects from CS6 to the current release read the same way.

What is in each row?

Sequence name, track (V1, A1…), event number, clip name, media file name, and the full path when the project has one. Record in and out mark the clip's position on the timeline. Source in and out mark the part of the media it uses. Duration comes in frames and as timecode, and each row carries the sequence frame rate. Timecodes use the sequence's own rate.

Which timecode does source_in count from?

From the start of the media file, not the camera timecode, because the project stores the clip's offset into its media. That is what a relink or a pull list needs. For a camera-timecode pull, add the file's start timecode in your spreadsheet.

Are transitions, markers, speed changes and audio channels listed?

Yes. Each clip row lists the transition into and out of it with its length. It also lists the clip's constant speed, the media's own frame rate and size, the audio channels it plays, its static volume in dB, its bin, and the nest it came from. Sequence and clip markers get their own rows with their comments. Colour, filters, text and other effects are not carried. The effects_not_carried column names them, and the fidelity line under the preview says the same before you convert.

Can I open the CSV in Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes. It is plain UTF-8 CSV with a header row, and cells are quoted where a clip name contains a comma. Timecodes are text, so the spreadsheet will not reformat them as times.

Is the project uploaded?

No. Your browser reads the project file and builds the CSV. Nothing leaves your machine. CutConvert only records that a conversion happened and how large the file was.

Questions, answered

Where are my files processed?

In your browser. The file never leaves your computer, and CutConvert only records that a conversion happened. We never see, store, sell or share your media.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

Files up to about an hour of footage convert free on every converter. CapCut projects are free up to 500 KB. Guests get five conversions a month; a free account has no monthly cap within the free size caps. Bigger files are $3 each, or $5 for a project conversion from one program to another. Pro is $9 a month ($90 a year) for files up to 50 MB. Studio is $19 a month ($190 a year) for files up to 500 MB.

What do I get when I convert multiple files?

One ZIP with every converted file. A single file comes back on its own. Press + to add more output formats: they go in the same ZIP, and each file still counts as one conversion.

Which formats are supported?

Projects in: Premiere .prproj, DaVinci Resolve .drp, Avid AAF and bins, Final Cut FCPXML, CapCut drafts and Audition sessions. Projects out: FCP7 XML, FCPXML, Resolve .drp, AAF, CapCut and REAPER, plus CMX 3600 EDL and shot-list CSV. Transitions, markers, titles, keyframes, levels, speed changes and nested sequences carry over wherever the target app can hold them. Captions: SRT, WebVTT, SBV, ASS, TTML, DFXP, iTT, SCC, MCC, EBU-STL, Avid caption TXT, timed CSV, Word and plain text. Transcripts: Whisper, WhisperX, AssemblyAI, Deepgram, Rev.ai and CapCut JSON, Premiere transcript JSON and .prtranscript, and Rev, Otter and Word-style text. Styling, placement and speakers come along where the output supports them.

Can I pick a frame rate?

Yes. For EDL and Avid caption output, choose 23.976, 24, 25, 29.97 or 30 fps, or let CutConvert detect it from your source.
