How to convert Premiere Project to CSV

Export a shot list from a Premiere Pro project online. CutConvert reads the .prproj itself, no Premiere required, and writes a CSV with one row per clip: sequence, track, clip name, media file and path, record and source timecode, duration. For conform, VFX pulls, music cue sheets, and anyone who needs the cut in a spreadsheet.

  1. Add your .prproj file

    Drag the Premiere Pro project onto the drop zone. It is decompressed and read locally.

  2. Convert

    Press Convert. The project is read in your browser: sequences, tracks, clips, source ranges and media references. The preview shows the first rows before anything is downloaded.

  3. Download your result

    Download the converted file instantly, or a single ZIP archive when you convert a batch of files.

Premiere project and CSV shot list, explained

A Premiere Pro project holds 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 clean spreadsheet of what is on the timeline, and it needs a licence to do even that. This converter reads the .prproj directly and lists every clip on every track with the numbers a conform, a VFX vendor, or a music supervisor asks for: where it sits on the timeline, which part of which file it uses, how long it runs.

One row per clip, every sequence and track, record and source timecode at the sequence rate. Read straight 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 that powers 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 full path when the project has one, record in and out (position on the timeline), source in and out (the part of the media used), duration in frames and as timecode, and the sequence frame rate. Timecodes are written at the sequence's own rate.

Which timecode does source_in count from?

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

Are transitions, effects and markers listed?

No. A shot list has one row per clip; a transition is not a clip, so every boundary appears as a cut and effects, speed changes and markers are not read. The fidelity line under the preview says exactly this for your file 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 quoted cells where a clip name contains a comma. Timecodes are text, so they will not be reformatted as times.

Is the project uploaded?

No. The project file is read in your browser and the CSV is built there. Nothing leaves your machine; CutConvert only records that a conversion happened and how large the file was.

More post-production formats are on the way.

Can I pick a frame rate?
