Exporting titles from after effects to premiere

Hello. I am a relatively inexperienced user with the creative suite 5.5 programs. (I am working on a Windows 7 machine.) I created a title in After Effects that was just text with a transparent background. However, when I exported it as a movie (AVI) and imported it into Premiere, the text is now on an opaque black background. This surprised me because I have the checkerboard transparency view in After Effects, and all I have there is the text. How can I create text only on an otherwise transparent layer to bring into Premiere? Is there a preferred export setting for this? The posted info says I cannot just copy and paste text layers from one program to the other. (I know how to use the titler in Premiere - this would be for instances where I am doing more complicated text animations that rely on After Effects.)  Thank you in advance for your help. I know this is basic, but I cannot find anything that addresses this specifically.

Todd -
The link helped me conceptualize alpha channel and transparency (which I have struggled with in the past). However, ultimately I needed to know what setting to adjust, what button to click, which can be hard when you have to wade through all the various support materials. I am teaching (if you can believe it) video and film classes at a local high school. We had been using CS 3 the last couple of years, and I was just starting to get the hang of those, when we moved to CS5, so I am still somewhat disoriented and have taken a step backwards. Much of it is the same, but it can still be pretty daunting when even something as basic as this takes this much research, community help, etc.  (The move back to Audition from Soundbooth is especially confounding, because we were operating more on the amateur than the high pro level.)  Anyway, between classroom in a book, adobe tv, creative cow, lynda.com, and the manual, I can usually figure my fairly basic problems out, but this was really frustrating, in part because it just seemed to basic. So again, thanks so much for you time and helping me get going again.
Sincerely,
Steve

  • Exporting comp from After Effects CC to Adobe Premiere Pro CC (2014) gives error message: "AE can not connect to dynamic link"

    I am trying to export an AE CC comp into a Adobe Premiere Pro CC (2014) video project. I can not drage it from AE to Premier Pro.  Is there a problem with the dynamic link between these two applications?

    Dynamic Link only works between After Effects and Premiere Pro if the applications are of the same version---i.e., both CC 2014 versions.

  • Having trouble exporting file from After Effects CS5.5

    I am trying to add some titles to a Multi Camera mix I have finished. I have exported my multi cam that I created in Premiere Pro as an MPEG.
    So hears what I have done:
    - open After effects
    - create new composition (HD 1080x1440- length 2:16 (so clip fits)
    - I place my clip in the time line the type some text.
    - in the effects bar I click the roll up and select "Browse Presets" which opens adobe bridge
    - I apply my effects and they play back in elements fine...
    When I try to export my clip as a Premiere Pro Project it doesnt keep my animated txt when I open it. Says it does not support the presets. his
    Con someone please help me export this project? Getting very frustrating. I need it as a High Res HD file

    Create the titles in After Effects without the MPEG.  (Or if you must use it as a reference, go ahead and do so, and then when you're done creating the title, delete the MPEG.)
    Then go back to PP and select File>Dynamic Link>Import After Effects Composition...  Navigate to the AE project that has the title, and bring in that composition.  It will appear in your bin as a clip.  Then you add it to the sequence and export the completed video with titles.

  • Blurry comp from After Effects to Premiere

    Hello,
    I did a simple logo as a 3D object to spin and have some text flash by. I encoded it and imported it to Prem Pro. The problem is the logo and text look blurry when I hit play. Is there a rule of thumb for export settings etc etc. Thanks for the help.

    Suggestions -
    1. Use Dynamic lik instead of exporting from after effects and then impoting in premiere pro if you have production premium or master collection.
    2. If you are exporting for the purpose of importing in another application (premiere pro or Encore) you should chose to export in uncompressed format like uncompressed avi. So that you dont loose quality twicw that is once while export from after effect and then while export from premiere pro.

  • The extrude effect on my text goes away when brought from After Effects to Premiere since I updated to 2014 CC. Help?

    Hey everyone,
    Ever since I have updated from my CC to the CC 2014 last night, My extruded 3D ray traced texts become CLASSIC 3D texts when brought to Premiere from After Effects. Has anyone else experienced this problem yet or have any possible solutions? I appreciate it, Thanks!

  • Importing project from after effects to premiere, plug in effect not available?

    Hello all, Im using cs5. When I import a video project to premiere from after effects, i get an error message saying that an effect plugin from after effects is not available in premiere. Specifically the glow effect. I thought that since after effects had the effect that premiere would too. I'm asking for the college i go to as we are not too familiar with this program and we have a sub for the next few weeks, thanks in advanced !

    oh sorry, i didnt notice that the post i posted didnt have really any info, the page froze and the page saved my info, i guess i submitted the wrong post. anyways, this whats going on.
    I make an after effects cs5 composition which is a .MOV video i took, roughly 1 minute with the glow effect applied to the video. I then import the composition to premiere, premiere then gives me the error that premiere does not have the glow effect and therefore, won't be applied. below is my specs and here is a link to another post of mine that might possibly have something to do with this. after effects cs5 keylight (1.2) crash with dynamic link error?

  • From After Effects to Premiere Pro

    Hey anyone!
    I'm having trouble transferring an After Effects composition to Premiere Pro.
    The compostion is just 2 animation presets (filters) applied to 2 adjustment layers on top of a Premiere Pro sequence that I imported (right-click AE project pane, select "import").
    I've tried the following:
    - right clicking the project media pane in PP, and importing the AE comp.  When I did this, I could view the comp in my source monitor, but I could NOT move the comp onto my sequence timeline.  Tried dragging, setting in/out points, it just gave me the ghostbusters "no" symbol when I tried to drag it into timeline.
    - copy/paste the layers from AE into PP timeline.  Adjustment layers became 2 video tracks that were nothing but a slightly transparent white solid over video that was disconnected (red screen with "media disconnected" written all over it).
    - exporting the AE comp as a new PP project (File-->Export...).  The new project had nothing in it but a blank timeline.  Tried copying/pasting comp into that.  Nothing happened.
    - exporting the AE comp as an uncompressed AVI.  AE just keeps freezing/crashing in the middle of the export even if I split the comp up in 2 to make it easier.
    What am I doing wrong?  Am I doing anything right?  What is the BEST method for transferring an AE comp into a PP timeline?
    System specs:
    Intel Core 2 Quad 2.7 GHz processor
    6 GB RAM
    Windows 7 64-bit
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 1GB graphics card

    ...problem is, this error occurs when I have ONLY After Effects open.  No other applications.  I even shut down AE before using PP.
    I could see how if there was slow import speed or freezing/crashing that this would be a processing or memory issue.  I even have a processor/RAM monitor widget that doesn't show a lot going on during the composition importing/copy&pasting.
    But in the process, I either get:
    - a new premiere project (via dynamic link) that's blank
    - a composition that will import but not open in a timeline
    - copied layers from AE that are basically blank ("media disconnected" even though the media works in AE)
    I'm going to take a look at a few things once I get back to my PC.  Maybe I don't have some settings right.
    Thanks for your help, Dave. 
    Anyone else have any ideas?

  • Keyframe info from After Effects to Premiere Pro?

    I suspect I wount have any luck with this but is there a way to copy 'position' keyframes from a layer in After Effects and apply them to footage in Premiere?
    I want to add some handheld movement but I dont want to lose image quality by exporting footage out of Prem, into AFX and back out again.
    The source footage is Red RAW and I dont have the importer to get it into AFX either which is why I was hoping for a work around.
    Thanks

    Here's a possible workaround:
    After doing your animation in AE, go to File > Export > Adobe Premiere Pro Project. Save the project file wherever you want.
    Go back to Pr, and either import that project into your current project, or open it. Your AE comp should be a Pr sequence now, and the keyframes should be intact.
    This works on my setup, but I do have the Production Premium bundle so I don't know if this all works without it. Give it a shot!

  • Adobe dynamic link-From after effects to Premiere

    I have few sequences save in different After effects versions because my project was to big to work with one final after effect version.
    I would like to use Adobe dynamic link to send all the seuqences into Adobe premiere to make a "one sequence" that I could export.
    But when I am using Adobe dynamique link, I need to close and open the differents versions saved in after effects.
    When I do it, the sequences appear offline in Premiere.
    What can I do to see all the sequences online?Do I have to work with affter effects online all the time?
    Thanks a lot,
    Alice

    First and foremost, running After Effects is not necessary so as to be able to work with dynamically linked compositions in Premiere Pro. PrPro invokes headless version of AE in the background so as to communicate with dynamically linked comps.
    Second, while working with dynamically linked compositions avoid incremental numbers at the end of your AE projects names. Better yet, avoid incremental numbers at the end of your dynamically linked comps names as well in both AE and PrPro by giving them meaning names instead of default ones. If you really need to include incremental numbers in those names, insert them somewhere in the middle. The bug related to incremental numbers at the end of the names was biting strongly in CS5.5 (don't remember if CS5 was affected as well) and was claimed as fixed in CS6.
    See also this good old thread about Dynamic Link workflow: when it is wise to rely on Dynamic Link and when - on a digital intermediate. Pay attention to Todd's comments.

  • Streaching occuring when rendering from After Effects to Premiere

    Hello,
    I am working on a short film that includes a short section with special effects. I exported the scenes into After Effects CS5 and set the sequence to 1280 by 720. (same as the Premiere sequence) After I finished working on the effects in After Effects I rendered it to bring it back into Premiere. But, when I brought it back into Premiere the video was streatched out. Any assistance would be great.
    Thanks
    Alex

    Instead of rendering out of Ae, why not simply Dynamically Link
    your composition into your Premiere project?
    File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Import After Effects Composition
    Create and link to After Effects compositions with Dynamic Link

  • Problem with sending clips from after effects to premiere.  Color looks different.  Any advice?  Can't link.  4k raw in premiere and 40 layers per clip in ae.   Can't handle it.

    There's  a definite color difference from Premiere to ae.  I'm using cineform files as alphas from ae to put back over the clips in Premiere as a layer.  The problem is the color doesn't match like it did in ae and the mask and all that seem funky.  Anyone experience this or have ideas?

  • 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

  • Issues with Quicktime in Mavericks. I cant export to quicktime codecs in After Effects Or Premiere

    Hi,
    I recently updated to OS Mavericks. And in the beginning I really liked the update, but I recently fired up my After Effects CC and Premiere CC to work on some animation videos I had to produce for client. And when I wanted to export my animation. I could not find my Quicktime Codec settings like. H264, Mp4, Apple Pro res or any other quicktime codec. I read some articles on issues with Mavericks/Qucktime and this export problem in After Effects and Premiere. But I could not find a solution. It used to work on 10.8.5!
    I tried this... But it did not work ;-(
    http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2013/08/solutions-for-problems-with-quicktim e-files-in-after-effects-cc-12-0-because-of-conflict-with-dvcprohdvideoout-quick time-component.html
    I tried to uninstall perian. But did not help at all. They even discontinued the product.
    Does anyone else stumbled on this problem? Or maybe has a solution? I thought of downgrading to 10.8.5 But that is not ideal because I don't have a Time machine Backup from that period or earlier. And otherwise I have to collect all my data, emails, pictures etc. I seriously could use some help!

    After uninstalling and reinstalling the entire Adobe CC suite and all QuickTime components I was still dead in the water. I then tried another User account on my computer and AE and AME worked perfectly with fast startup and all QT/H.264 components in place. This established the problem was in my main User directory...
    After some backing up, I deleted all Adobe and com.Adobe.whatever files from User/Library/Preferences and then restarted the computer. I then copied all Adobe and com.Adobe.whatever files from the other user folder and restarted and found that After Effects and Adobe Media Encoder were working perfectly:

  • Premiere Bad Export vs. After Effects Clean Export

    I encountered this problem many years ago, but since it accours in every version of Premire Pro it's time to find a solution.
    Mainly what bothers me is that every video I export out of Premire CS4 isn't as clean as if I would export it out of After Effects.
    I had two situations:
    1. I made one animation in After Effects, exported the video in the loosles format to see how it looks and the video looked great and very clean.
    Than I imported the after effects composition via dynamic link into Premiere CS4 and put some music underneath. Than I exported the video out of Premiere CS4 with the Media Encoder into some HQ versions like Pal DV, .mov, .h264, Targa sequences...and the video just wasn't as clean as the one exported directly from After Effects.
    What is wrong? Is there a Premire encoder bug? I had this problem also with earlier version of Premiere.
    2. I shot a film in HDV for a company. I edited the material in Premiere CS4 and since I exported it for 4:3 I scaled the video down. So there were more than enought pixels to make the image clean. But after exporting it out of Premiere CS4 the PAL DV image quality just wasn't clean.
    I imported than the entire Premiere sequence into After Effects and exported the video from there and I got a great and clean looking PAL DV video.
    Again. Is there a bug in Premiere encoder?
    I like Premiere but since I can not get a nice image quality out of it I'm planing to go over to FinalCut Pro.
    Does any one have a solution for that problem?
    Thank you very much
    Agetis

    Thanks Jim and Harm!
    Jim, I exported the animation in the 1. scenario as a progressive video. There was no interlacing and I still got bad results with Premiere.
    Harm, I gathered for you fresh uncompressed image exports from Premiere and After Effects.
    Sample 1 - Uncompressed Tiff from Premiere CS4
    Sample 2 - Uncompressed Tiff from After Effects CS4
    I don't think Encore has anything to do with this problem. Because the DVD (.m2v files) wasn't transcoded with Encore but with Premire and AE.
    Anyway here are the DVD settings:
    1. Premiere settings for the DVD:
    MPEG2-DVD
    PAL High Quality
    Video Settings:
    Quality: 5
    Tv Standard: PAL
    Frame W: 720
    Frame H: 576
    FPS: 25
    Fields: Lower
    Pixel: 4:3 (1.09)
    CBR: 8 MB
    2. After Effects settings for the DVD:
    Are exactly the same as Premieres. Fields are also Lower.
    The video in AE was exported via Render Queue.
    I still don't think that this is a issue of codecs. From my point of view it's still more likely that Premiere has an export bug.
    Please try it out and let me know.
    Thanks
