Can After Effects help out Premiere

Dear,
I'm using Premiere CS3. I'm editing on AspectHD, and I'd like to have my co-editor working on his machine with DV version of the footage.
To have him have exactly what I've got so far, I went this way:
- saved a copy of my project file
- offlined all video clips it copy and kept audio files online (to avoid
having to reconnect them, by having my co-editor have them in the same
drive path and directory as I do so they reconnect automatically)
- I imported CFHD project in a brand new DV project (so that my co-editor
can work in it and have proper specs)
So now I have an offline DV version of my project file with audio online, but when I try to reconnect medias with the DV clips, I need to reconnect them one by one; even more, I need to select them 2 times each before Premiere recognizes and accepts them as the proper media. (that is normal software workflow according to ADOBE support "except for the double selection I have to make")
When I just Make Offline and Reconnect Medias in my project file and keep the HD media, I just need to select and tie one file in each folder that hold clips and Premiere does the rest, but now it won't do it for this particular project.
I talked with ADOBE tech support and the guy told me it was how Premiere works, but couldn't help me out as to if AE could help me help PREMIERE reconnect all my file in batch instead of spending 1-2 days doing so.
Anyone knows if by importing my project file in AE I could batch reconnect medias ?
Thank you.

Thank you Howard, didn't know about this.
But, still my co-editor doesn't have the Hard Drive space to have the files copied (1.4GB) and I don't have the money to buy it for him.
So I'd rather find a way to reconnect DV media to replace CFHD ones.
I posted on After Effects forum and it seems the program will respond as Premiere does. What about BRIDGE, is is there a way to reconnect media via it ?
This is like the basis of offline/online editing I can't believe that ADOBE technician haven't included something in the Creative Suite to do this !!?

After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 not available for installation for 32-bit systems

After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 require a 64-bit operating system and processor to be installed and run.
If you subscribe to Creative Cloud but use a 32-bit computer system, you will not be able to download and install Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6.
This issue primarily affects users on the Windows operating system, since all supported versions of the Mac OSX operating system are able to run 64-bit applications.
See this document for details:
"64-bit Windows required for After Effects and Premiere Pro CS6"
In general, you can only download and use applications for which your computer system meets the minimum system requirements.

Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house. It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service. Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen. It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device. I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream. Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it. Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
Thanks for the help!

Exporting layers of audio from After Effects cs6 to Premiere / or Audition? Is this possible?

exporting layers of audio from After Effects cs6 to Premiere / or Audition? Is this possible?
Help - I have an After effects project with multiple layered files and want to copy these to Premiere / Audition. For example I know if you select multiple video files from After Effects these can be pasted straight into Premiere intact - but this does not work with audio. I want to take existing layered audio files from After Effects to Audition / or Premiere but can't copy and paste - is there a simple solution for this?

Hi thanks Dave for responding - yes that could work as a 'workaround' - I was hoping there would be a way I can keep the existing independent audio layers and corresponding audio levels from After Effects- in the same way I can copy and paste video files from After Effects to Premiere - rather than exporting a flattened AIFF /WAV from After Effects.
This would then allow me a lot more control working on the final edit - especially as currently a lot of the audio layers overlap. It does seem there is no simple solution for this, so otherwise I can do what you suggest - and 'stagger all the audio files' in sequence so they do not overlap on the timeline and then when I import the flattened exported AIFF file into Audition/ Premeire / I then can cut it up again and recreate the overlaps. Was hoping there might be a simple copy + paste method or other 'export method' but I guess this is simply not possible. It would save me about 7 hours of work, but not the end of the world I guess
One final point - some of the audio clips are .mp3s but the majority are WAVS, hopefully this should not create any issues on the export.
thanks again for your help, if you or anyone has any other solution pls let me know
Best

After Effects export as Premiere Pro project weird PAL/NTSC problem

This post is not a question. It's here, because I've found a solution and want to share with You.
I've noticed a strange problem during export from AE to PR.
Ok, here I go.
AE = After Effects CS3
PR = Premiere Pro CS3
My AE project is D1/DV PAL Widescreen. It is a sequence of slideshow with some video effects applied. I needed that sequence in PR. I was happy to find a new feature - export as premiere pro project (new for me - i am pretty rookie ;). Thaks to this feature I have saved most of my disk space that is always to low. But, like every first try, this one was not perfect too. I had two problems.
Problem no 1.
I opened exported project in PR and saw message like "video effect AE.CC COMPOSITE not present".
Whole composition was working perfectly except that one video effect that was fundamental for this project.
*Solution was as easy as it can be. I've just copied that effect from AE plugin folder to PR plugin folder. It worked for this.
Problem no 2
Like says AE Help "When you export an After Effects project as an Adobe Premiere Pro project, Adobe Premiere Pro uses the settings from the first composition in the After Effects project for all subsequent sequences."
Project settings in PR was exactly D1/DV PAL Widescreen. So where is the problem You ask?
Therefore why my Timeline works in NTSC 29,97 frame rate if all settings match PAL 25 frame rate?! I don't know.
*Solution to fix this annoying bug is to create a new project in PR with all settings for D1/DV PAL Widescreen in this case. Than just import that PR project exported from AE. Now timeline works like it should in PAL frame rate.
That's it.
I hope this post is helpful, because I didn't find any answer for this here in Adobe forum.

After Effects problems with Premiere

This is driving me INSANE. Im using Adobe CS4. In after effects everything works perfect. I then go into Premiere and import an After Effects file, put it on the timeline and everything is fine. I then add a key for adjusting the alpha and the preview image goes black. I erase the key (alpha at 100% of course) and it appears in the preview window again. This isnt specific to this project either. It happens with any after effects file imported into premiere (I've tried about 10 totally different project files). I ALSO have this problem on my laptop computer. My 3rd computer however, I do not have this problem.
If I overlap any 2 after effects files within premiere same problem, screen goes black. I tried rendering the video and the video also renders all black in any format...mpeg2, mpeg1, avi, quicktime.
If I press the play button with in Premiere all of the blacked areas are then visible. Press stop and they go black again.
My computer is a Boxx with Windoes XP x64 edition with a Quadro FX 4800 graphics card. My laptop that also has these same problems is also 64 bit but with Windows 7 with 2 Radeon HD 4850 cards. The computer that I dont have these problems on is a x32 edition windows XP.
I've problem solved this for days now with no solution and nothing I can find in these forums is related. Does windows x64 and Adobe have issues working together?

Problem was my default settings in After Effects had the pixel aspect ratio off from premieres' or that some files differed from others in their aspect ratio. I set it to a default setting and everything is now working. Still seems funny this would cause it to not work, but whatever.
I'd like to thank myself for all the help and support I offered myself.

So, howdy.

How to import original clips edited in After Effects into Adobe Premiere, without the After Effects

What is the quickest and easiest way to bring clips that were edited within after effects into adobe premiere? I just want the original clip as it is cut, without any of the after effects manipulation. I am trying to gather the cuts of a green screen project together that was compiled and edited within Adobe After Effects, so they can be rekeyed. I want to detach all effects work, and just have a straight green screen cut of the original files. Each cut though, is its own compilation. Simply importing to a new sequence doesn't seem to be the answer because I first have to uncheck many effects to find the original clip buried beneath layers of mattes and various effects. I have probably 400 different cuts, and currently my workflow is super slow just searching for the original clip in after effects, looking for the time code, then matching the original clip and timecode into Premiere. Is there a faster an easier workflow?
Thank you

Then you need the original clip.

It's what you may need to do, though. Unless you know exactly where the clips are on the hard drive.

You can use After Effects Help without using the AIR application. You can either use the HTML version of After Effects Help on the Web or the PDF version of After Effects Help.

Dynamic Link from After Effects CC to Premiere Pro CC Performance Issues

I just updated my After Effects and Premiere Pro to CC and since doing so I've found numerous performance issues. One that is seriously hurting my workflow is the poor performance of the dynamic link with After Effects compositions into Premiere Pro. In CS6, you could make a change to the AE composition, save it, click over to Premiere Pro and it would quickly update and you can play your timeline and preview your changes. You could also move the clips around and add cross dissolves and watch the changes quickly in Premiere Pro CS6. Now, since updating to CC, if you save the composition in AE and click over to Premiere Pro it won't update on its own. Sometimes it just shows a single frame of the AE composition. I found that if you right click and "Edit Original", go into AE and then click back over to Premiere Pro and it will finally update. But if you make any changes to the placement of the AE composition on the timeline, or add a cross dissolve, fade, etc. it again won't play the AE composition any longer. After you make any changes to the AE composition you have to right click and go to "Edit Original", go into AE, and then click back over to Premiere Pro.. Then it will finally update.

Thanks Kevin.
Unfortunately in my case the export doesn't solve the issue. The video only looks good while in the composition... I've tried exporting it in all the different formats with several codecs, but to no avail...
You can check my own post in the After Effects forum: AE linked composition looks different in Premiere

Please rate the After Effects Help pages you find useful

You may have noticed that Adobe employees and Community Experts hanging in this forum keep pointing users to the relevant sections in After Effects Help on the Web. The reason for this is, of course, that the quality of explanations, visual examples, video tutorials and other materials in those pages is much higher than what anyone could quickly type in a forum reply. Personally, I think AE help has experienced a drastic overhaul in the last few years, to become a great, community-driven, user-focused resource.

Importing After Effects document to Premiere Pro errors: "The importer reported a generic error."

I´m using Premiere Pro CC ver 2014.1. and After Effets 2014.1.1. in OS X Yosemite. I can't import After Effects project to Premiere.
There is always same error message: "The importer reported a generic error."
I have tryed to save After document several different names and greate new ones. Always same error. Whats wrong in my workflow?

Okay so I've searched around most of this forum and as much of Google as I could find - I have found similar problems, but nothing exactly the same; and none of the solutions I've found have worked for me. I've seen a lot of people having trouble connecting to the DL server on the file-selection window, but I don't even get that far - an error message just pops up in the middle of my screen - and my error doesn't mention a server, just that it can't connect to AE DL.
I changed firewall software (which I've wanted to do for months, anyway) and still to no avail.
As for the "The importer reported a generic error" problem also, I can't find any problems or solutions with After Effects files not being able to be imported.

After Effects AND/OR Premiere Pro CS5 ?

Hi guys,
I am quite new, I have only done one videoproject and that was in Premiere Pro CS4. Now I got a new machine and have both Premiere Pro CS5 and After Effects. I have started learning AE from some videos and it is quite impressing what you can do there. So I hope I can use AE to improve my videos.
My question is, shall I do the project in PPCS5 and then connect to AE for making special effects on clips or shall I do the whole project in After Effects ?
If I choose AE for the project, will I miss some functions from Premiere Pro?
Many thanks in advance !
Sven

Thank you guys!
You put me on track, expecially with the link!
From beginning I am just taking care of old videos that noone look at because not edited so most of the time just crap.
I want to edit them, try to improve color and sharpness but also add some funny elements so they are more interesting to watch.
I have 30 videos from my daughter, each 1 hour and 8 of my own (really crap) and 8 VHS from a friend. That is just to start with.
Start Adobe Premiere Pro from within After Effects and capture footage for use in After Effects. (See Use Adobe Premiere Pro for capture (Production Premium and Master Collection only).)
Use Adobe Dynamic Link to work with After Effects compositions in Adobe Premiere Pro without first rendering them. A dynamically linked composition appears as a clip in Adobe Premiere Pro.
Use Adobe Dynamic Link to work with Adobe Premiere Pro sequences in After Effects without first rendering them. A dynamically linked sequence appears as a footage item in After Effects.
Start After Effects from within Premiere Pro and create a new composition with settings that match the settings of your Premiere Pro project.
Select a set of clips in Adobe Premiere Pro and convert them to a composition in After Effects. "
So with a testvideo I will start using these 5 different methods so I learn when to use which one!
And I also have 4-5 videolessons to watch.
Thanks again!
I probably be back soon with more questions!

Fix for crash in After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 when Joesoft Hear audio enhancer installed

After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 both can crash due to a conflict with the Joesoft Hear audio enhancer.
We've just gotten confirmation from Joesoft that they've released a beta version of Hear that doesn't conflict with After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5. We're recommending that our customers who also use Hear install the 1.0.5b2 (build 490) beta version of Hear.
Let us know on this forum thread whether this solution works for you. We on the After Effects and Premiere Pro teams will monitor this thread for feedback, and we'll make sure that the folks at Joesoft get the information that they need, too.
When reporting back, be sure to let us know whether you've installed the Premiere Pro CS5 (5.0.2) update and After Effects CS5 (10.0.1) update.

After 2 days trying to get AE and Premiere past the mediacore initialization message, I finally stumbled on this little message. Updating Hear definitely solves the problem!

After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro

I thought After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro were part of the cloud. Neither appeared in the download manager and I'm not able to install.

This question gets asked a lot because, rather than putting a simple, clear explanatory note into the Application Manager, Adobe confusingly opted to simply omit apps not supported by your operating system from the download screen thereby leaving users such as yourself bewildered as to why those apps are not available for you for download.
Many people often think their Application Manager is somehow broken or corrupted.
I take it that you're running Windows XP 32 bit or Windows 7 32 bit?
Neither will run PP or AE unfortunately so those apps are not available for you to download.
64 bit operating systems only.
