Dynamic link with After Effects workflow questions... (exporting from PPro)

I have CS5 Master on Win7 x64 pc
I have a Premiere sequence with an AE linked comp in it...
If I am using proxies (created at high quality, not low) or pre-renders (in AE comp), would that have any affect on render/export times in Premiere Pro (or Adobe Media Encoder)?
What is the best workflow for having AE comps in Premiere to maximize export times in PPro?
Thanks all!

Umm... sure? To be perfectly honest, I've never tried it!
As it is, I don't think that's the case; you can set a post-render action in AE to import the rendered file back into your project, but I don't think there's an automatic replacement or addition to the existing comp. You'd have to do that manually. But given that, if you're already rendering out a finished comp, why not just import it into Premiere Pro and forget about the Dynamic Link?
A proxy in AE is essentially a low-resolution version of a footage item, not a finished comp. So short of doing a bait-and-switch where you build your comp, render it out of AE, import the rendered file back in, and put it as a layer into the finished comp (on top, presumably, since that will basically null the rendering of the other layers below), I don't believe there is a more straightforward workflow.

  • Dynamic link to After Effects problem

    My computer crashed a little while ago, and we had to reload the system, but no data was lost.
    The project i am working on, has every single shot dynamicly linked to After Effects.
    The links held up fine, but there is one problem, about 10 shots have some how recut them selves, and or have been shortend. The funny thing is, is that some how the audio still matches up. I cant seem to figure out how to solve this problem.
    Any help at all would be greatly appreciated,

    Just an update:
    With disc utilities I repaired the permissions.
    I reinstalled cs5 production premium.
    I updated it to the actual version (flash occured an error, but the other ones were fine)
    I opend the project: no links to most of the media.
    I relinkt all media - except the dynamic links to After Effects. That just doesn't work.
    I saved the project on a different drive with a different name.
    Opend the new project and - again - most of the files didn't link again! Missing more than 10.000 links to jpegs, psds, mxfs.
    I opend the new and the old project on another mac - same results.
    I think, repairing permissions with disc utility doesn't affect Adobe's software (Apple says that some 3rd Party Applicaton might not be affected.)
    I found a workflow for repairing permissions in the case of updating-failure, but I didn't try that, as I don't want to make things worse.
    Is there a way to repair CS5 permissions "internal"?
    Thanks in advance,
    Philipp

  • Trying to Dynamic Link to After Effects, but it says I need Production Premium, but..

    I have the Adobe CS5.5 Master Collection. What is going on? Can I not use Dynamic Link with the Master Collection? That doesn't make any sense. What am I doing wrong?

    If the application can't communicate with the Dynamic Link server, it may be because TCP communication has been blocked by firewall software. See this document for suggestions about unblocking this communication:

  • Premiere Pro exports fail to recognize changes made to Dynamic Link through After Effects

    Hi there,
    I am having an issue with Premiere Pro CC and Dynamic Links/After Effects CC.
    I will be working within the PP CC timeline using footage, and then add motion graphics using Adobe Dynamic Link to AE CC. I notice an error in timing, or spelling, colouring - literally any type of error in AE CC that I want to correct. I go to AE CC and make the correction, go back to PP CC, and it shows up as changed. I go back to AE CC, purge media cache, memory, etc. and save the workfile. I go back to PP CC and export using Media Encoder. After waiting for the export to complete, I find it maintained the same error from a previous edit.
    Does anyone know why this would be? Is there any way to avoid having to restart every time I make a small change to an edit?
    Thank you in advance for any insight.

    It has now happened to myself and my co-worker. The only way we have been able to "solve" the problem is by deleting cache/restarting both programs/restarting the entire computer. It shows up as changed within the Premiere project, as well as in the preview in Adobe Media Encoder - and then the final output does not reflect those changes.
    Another suggested workaround to anyone else out there who is problem solving is exporting directly from Premiere, but none of these solutions seem to work 100% of the time, nor really address what this problem really could be stemming from.

  • Premiere CS5 and dynamic link with Affect effects doesn't "sync"

    Hi guys, having issues with Pr and Ae CS5 using the dynamic link. I haven't got massive experience using aftereffects, i mainly edit. I doing VFX for a short film ( i know right, deep end..) Its a hand held combat scene.
    I'm using action essentials 2 for muzzle flash and explosions. And i'm noticing that when a do tracking (manually, "track motion" doesn't work, due to the shaky camera movement) in After effects, the muzzle flashes are in place and looks great
    but when i go back to Premiere to view the clip, its not hitting the same marks in every frame. I export the clip out of Premiere and still the same issue.
    example of me manually tracking or adding keyframes for position in after effects.
    After effects still.                                                                                                     Premiere still. See how the flashes are in the sky.
    Look for the two muzzle flashes up the top right, on the ridge line.
    The footage is AVCHD .MTS files for a Panasonic GH2 PAL
    Here's a link to the clip, notice that same of the flashes coming out of the actor's gun isn't in the right positon also.

    We are just shifing to PP from another editor and have only used PP to AE for color correction tests w/Color Finesse (a plugin in AE). My only experinece with dynamic link is in this way. Personally I find it very cumbersome. So take this with a grain of salt, but if we do other work in AE (we have an intern working on a 1.5 min AE animation) I will render it out in AE to ProRes HQ or 4444 if I need an alpha channel (or similar codec) and drag it into my project folder in PP.
    You should do yourself a favor (Not meant with disrespect) and take a few hours and REALLY get down and dirty with Dynamic Link between PP and AE.
    I use it all the time and it litterally saves me 10+ hours of work on EACH project which is typical between 70 and 300 clips.
    In fact, I dont know how I'd do withouth DL.
    At first it seems cumbersome, yes. But that is only until you get to know it...
    I will cut the whole project in PP. Then save it.
    Then in AE, I'll choose "Import PP Project " --- That will open my whole PP project in AE on SEPERATE layers (One layer per Clip).. Ready to CC.
    I dont have to render a thing from PP.
    If I need to, I'll use the AE Script "Pre Compose" to make an individual composition of each layer.
    AE is just about the greatest app I have EVER seen on ANY computer ! Hands Down
    Does not get ANY faster than that.

  • Rendering from Premiere Pro Dynamic Link vs After Effects = fast vs slow?

    So I'm doing graphics for a show using a fake 3D look in Adobe After Effects CC 2014.1. In segment 1 there are about 30 fonts that display for about 3-4 seconds each. Technically it's just a bunch of 2D layers of text, not a real tricky or intensive thing.
    In my Premiere timeline, things render pretty quickly in the sequence. The show is composed of RED R3D 6K files, AJA KiPro quicktime files and some AVCHD stuff. Sequence timeline is 1080i29.97 for broadcast delivery. The sequence is rendering out to ProRes422 HQ. With no graphics, even the RED 6K files render out snappy. So I've brought these new graphics in as a Dynamic Link file. When I try to render out the graphics things get SUPER slow. Inordinately so. I don't get it. I thought the new "Render and Replace" would speed things up (great feature) however that seems to make things just as slow. So now I'm rendering out of After Effects the old fashioned way (each font is a 10 second file or so) with an alpha channel. I chose the 8-bit Cineform codec w/ alpha channel. Things rendered out, as expected, very quickly. A few minutes and all 42 fonts I built were done.
    So what I don't get is why render and replace is so much slower than manually rendering straight out from After Effects CC 2014.1. Based on the time stamps from a "render and replace" process I did overnight - it took about 6 hours to render out a handful of graphics. I rendered out twice the amount straight from After Effects CC 2014.1 this morning in like 5-10 minutes. Isn't render & replace basically just rendering stuff out straight from After Effects (or AME) in the background and then just popping it in your timeline? If that's what is supposed to be happening, I don't understand the discrepancy in time. I'll bring the rendered out files into Premiere and see how quickly that video renders over the original video.
    I just wanted to throw this out there to see if I'm missing some obvious thing or if this is as expected behavior.
    #editorproblems #deliverydeadline

    What, exact, version of CC 2014 do you have?
    How long have you used AE?
    When did this problem start?
    Have you tried rebooting your machine?

  • Dynamic Link Premiere + After Effects - Encoder - Änderungen werden nicht übernommen.

    Wenn man bereits eine Sequenz (welche eine AE-Komp. beinhaltet) mit dem Media Encoder exportiert hat und dann nachträglich nochmals Änderungen der Komp. in After Effects vornimmt und dann die Sequenz wieder per Premiere an den Media Encoder sendet, dann werden die After Effects Änderungen nicht berücksichtigt. Die After Effects Komposition innerhalb der exportierten Sequenz ist auf dem Stand des ersten Exports. In der Timeline wird sie aber richtig dargestellt. Wenn man direkt aus Premiere exportiert und nicht den Weg über den Encoder nimmt, funktioniert es auch.
    Gibt es irgendwelchen temporären Dateien, die man löschen muss?

    Leider kein Lösung, nur dass es hier bei mir genauso ist. Scheint leider ein Mangel am Programm zu sein, ansonsten würde ich ich auch über eine Lösung freuen. Hält schon auf, wenn ich jede Sequenz einzeln rendern muss.
    Klar ich könnte das bei einzelnen Clips zur Not auch über den Media Encoder aus AE heraus machen, aber sinniger und besser wäre es schon wenn "dynamic link" auch wirklich dynamisch linken würde..

    I have installed the Creative Cloud version of After effects and Premiere Pro (only them, no other software of the suite) but i still can´t link them with dynamic link. the option is in grey, and i can't even click on it.
    Some help? please!

  • Dynamic LinK to After Effect makes export freeze

    Hi everyone,
    I had previously posted on the Encore Forum, because the problem first appreared when trying to DL a sequence from Premiere to Encore: it took almost 6 hours for 15 mins of video, then it froze. Then I tried to export directly from Premiere, it took less (3 hours or so) but it froze nonetheless.
    I found out that it froze exactly in the same spot, that is when it came to a DL from AE. It was a 30 secs composition in which I had simply stabilized a clip, no other effects were there. So, no matter what, when I try to expot the sequence, it blocks when it comes to the DL.
    The problem is also that neither Encore nor Premiere showed me anything about it before exporting; both regularly started encoding, only to freeze at a certain point. In this way, I can't and I won't be able to realize when something like that will happen again. I mean: How could I know when a DL will create problem when exporting? The fact is that other DL worked fine.
    Does anyone know if there is something I should check in order to have DLs work reguraly?
    Thank You

    Yes Jim, you're absolutely right - every 'common rule' is arbitrary, and it's up to everybody do decide what suits better in one's particular circumstances or a certain workflow!
    Regard to 'several minutes' as a guideline, it was just a free quotation of Rick's comment in my thread about dealing with 'heavy' AE comps...

  • Premiere Pro Dynamic Link to After Effects stopped working

    For about 6 months my Link between Premiere Pro and After Fx is not working. Premiere Pro sends it to After FX but when it is there the composition is empty and no media has been exported, even though the PP timeline is marked as a linked compostion. Its entirely empty, the media has vanished.
    Id love to fix this issue. I guess it's a reinstall???
    Latest CC, 10bit BM uncompressed timeline, Maverick (though it wasnt working on snow leopard either).

    Sorry guys, may have just found the problem! Just realised that somehow my CC version on my disk is not listed as downloaded in my Cloud drop down pane. So im updating it and im assuming that will fix the problem.

  • Issue with After Effects dynamic link CC2014

    Hi guys,
    I'm french user and i got an issue using dynamic link between after Effects CC2014 and Première Pro CC2014.
    I´m importing via dynamic link my PP sequence in AE. Import is OK but i'm unable to put the sequence into a comp !
    If i´m using PP to send a sequence into a AE comp, AE breaks and displays " After Effects error : strange situation. "
    Anybody knows what happens ?
    Desinstall / reinstall but nothing changes.
    Please help me. Thank you guys !

    It would help us to know what kind of system you are using and what type of footage. PPro will work on some types of footage that AE has a problem with. Have you followed this exact workflow before? Did this workflow work in previous versions of After Effects and Premiere Pro?

  • Help With Dynamically Linking Premiere With After Effects

    Recently, I edited some video footage in Adobe Premiere, dynamically linked it with After Effects, and added several effects and transitions within the latter application. However, after I thoroughly finished with my effects editing, I wished to place my After Effects Composition once more into Premiere, but this task met to no avail.
    Whenever I copied, dragged, or dynamically linked the After Effects project into Premiere, the footage showed up displaying either "Media Offline" or a series of colors that you sometimes see when a tv channel is offline. Now, I did read several posts describing the dynamic link as being only ONE WAY, but is there no possible way to move my After Effects composition back into Premiere? Or do I have to start from scratch by copying the Premiere footage into After Effects, THEN dynamically linking it to Premiere?
    Any help would be hugely appreciated!

    Right, I realize that now, but that would require deleting the current dynamically linked After Effects project, right?
    Also, I think the solution to my problem would be found if I could find a way to remove the dynamic link between After Effects and Premiere. Any ideas?

  • "Replace with After Effects Composition" greyed out using CC - WHY??

    Hi All,
    I am doing a project in Premiere Pro CC but need to dynamic link to After Effects CC.  The "replace with After Effects Composition" button is greyed out and I can't understand why, both are installed!
    I still have Premiere Pro CS6 and AE CS6 installed, because they contain plug-ins I use regularly, could this be causing an issue? I can't think why it would.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks,

    Reset the preferences of After effects and Premiere pro from :
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects and rename 12.0 and 12.1 as old12.0 and old12.1. In the same location C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Premiere Pro and rename 7.0 as old7.0.
    Restart the machine after these steps and then try to use dynamic link

  • Making new after effects comp question

    If i go to file>adobe dynamic link>new after effects comp is there anyway i can make the length of the comp depending on my in and out on the timeline i want or am i forced to have a standard automatic 30 seconds that it makes for me?

    What is that suppose to mean?  I sent in a request to have this implimented as a feature in the next update, we'll see how that goes.  I understand that you can make the duration edit inside the composition setting, but why should i have to do that?  Doing this and then relining it up back in premiere wastes time.  I should be able to do it based on the In and Out on my timeline.
