FCP/Adobe Premier Workflow

I have a friend who has done some work on his PC using Adobe Premiere and now wants me to finish up the editing for him. The problem is that I have a PowerMac and use Final Cut Studio. Is there any way that the work that he's done on Premiere can be transfered over to my computer and can be edited on Final Cut? If I understand correctly, the opposite is possible (going from Final Cut to Premiere), but I don't know if I can do what I'm wanting to do.
If you know, please tell me if and how it can be done.
Thanks.

do you mean that I'll need to recapture that original footage?
Yes. Premier on a PC most likely works with AVI files, whereas Final Cut pro uses QuickTime.
AVI kind of works in FCP but it can be clunky.
I wouldn't bet on it being a smooth ride getting the existing files to work in FCP.
But if you can get the scenes in the right order and length on your Timeline via the EDL, it will save a lot of time.

  • I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution.  When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom.  How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?

    I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution.  When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom.  How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?  I have read other forums on burning HD DVD's but I do not see the option to turn the 8 pi into 40 pi the one forum recommended.  I want my DVD to be HD so I may sell these videos online for my business.  I can't sell them the low quality they are burning now.  Hopefully you can help me.  Thanks.

    Thank you for your reply.
    You cannot burn your high resolution video that you can view on your computer to an AVCHD on DVD disc
    that will replay through a regular DVD player. But players are marketed under a variety of names with
    different support opportunities. One manufacturer may call its product MultiMedia Player, media player, Blu-ray player,
    etc.The bottom line is the specifications for each of the players that are candidates for the playback of
    the AVCHD format on DVD disc or the format of interest.
    If you upload your HD (1920 x 1080) video to YouTube, YouTube converts the video to flash format, but it goes up as the HD video.
    But, beware. Look at the YouTube viewing setting when your uploaded video is playing back. The YouTube default is not
    HD. It might be 360p, 480p. If you have a 1080p video, then before the YouTube playback, you should be looking
    at the video with the YouTube 1080p HD setting for best viewing. That is a YouTube matter.
    Best results depend on you
    a. setting up the Premiere Elements project preset to match the properties of the source media. That means, if
    you have 1080p source, you (manually) or the project (automatically) set the project preset at
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR [email protected]
    or the PAL counterpart, depending on your region need.
    b. if you upload your video to YouTube using the Premiere Elements feature, there is a HD preset, but you cannot
    customize it.....if you need customization, then you can export your Timeline to a file...in this example
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    with Presets = MP4 H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or PAL counterpart
    and then customize the preset under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset. In increase quality, you might look to increase
    the Bitrate under Advanced Button/Video Tab settings - without compromising the file size.
    Then you would upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
    All of the above are factors that need looking into in order to determine the why for what you wrote
    I have published a shortened advertisement video to YouTube- say 5 minutes-
    and it is low quality
    Often SD video upscaled to HD can present poorly. But, you are dealing with a HD workflow so that should not be introduced into the matter. The setup of the project and
    the properties of the source video are important, but let us start with the above and rule in or out those considerations first.
    Thank you. As always, any clarification needed, please do not hesitate to ask.

  • Adobe Premier Elements 11

    Using Adobe Premier Elements 11 I experience "freezing" when I:
    add some info to a picture while making a DVD, save the program then access the button to continue scanning the photos for the next spot in which to add more info. Not always, but often if freezes the program. Norton tells me I'm using 4,095 MB of memory and I have 8 GB in the Dell Inspiron desktop. Sometimes the program quits when I've asked to, "Wait for program." Any help?
    I have noted that my installation shows two instances of (Adobe Premier Elements 11 and Adobe Premier Elements) as having been installed at the same time. One is 96 Kb large and the other is 1077 Kb large. Is this normal?

    Yes, Normal.
    Adobe Premiere Elements 11.exe (95.9 KB) opens first
    and
    Adobe Premiere Elements.exe (1.05 MB aka 1075 KB) opens second
    Two processes of Premiere Elements 11. They are found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
    Local Disk C
    Program Files
    Adobe
    Adobe Premiere Elements 11
    and in the Premiere Elements 11 Folder are these two .exe files.
    When you install the program, the desktop icon for the program targets the Adobe Premiere Elements 11.exe to open to the Welcome Screen. You can bypass the Welcome Screen by creating a desktop icon for the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe and using the latter to open Premiere Elements each time so that you do not run into the Welcome Screen.
    Alternately, you can set the Welcome Screen "On Start Always Launch" = Video Editor.

    Although we are glad that you believe you have found your answer to the issue presented, I would ask
    a. What are the formats and pixel dimensions of the photos being imported in Premiere Elements project?
    b. Not sure what that " ...continue scanning the photos for the next spot to add more info" is all about. Are you going into the Elements Organizer 11 which comes with Premiere Elements 11 and using File Menu/Get Photos and Videos/From Scanner? If so, where do you scan the photos to? How are you importing them into Premiere Elements 11 Expert workspace - Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets and to Timeline or something else?
    Besides photo formats, pixel dimensions, and computer resources, your workflow sequence of events (maybe some multitasking) may be involved in this freezing (other than you are too fast for the program).
    Please review and consider.
    Thanks.

    Add On...From what you wrote, I am guessing that you are working on Premiere Elements 11 running on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit. If so, that would put you in a better computer resource position than otherwise. Also, watch out for antivirus interference.

    Is this possible?
    Any input is appreciated! Thank you.

    Tom
    Thanks for the reply.
    Your thoughts on frame by frame viewing are can do. However, the real time playback feature includes the concept of rendering the Timeline, when the program indicates the need to do so,  to get the best possible preview of what you are seeing in the Edit area monitor. That is a major novel in itself. Each time you do a new edit you will get the render indicator message to ignore or act on.

  • Error Message:  Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premier Pro to shut down.

    Hi. I'm having another serious problem with CS4 (the version that comes with CS5 when you don't have 64 bit capability. I just finished a project, had saved it, and then had switched over to Adobe Encoder to create a finished flash video (which worked perfectly). I shut down CS4, went home, tried to restart the main project to create a video from the same project (wanted to make an mpeg version as well) and got the following error message:
    Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premier Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project. Then the system shuts down.
    Not only can I not open the project I was working on, I cannot open any of my prior projects without receiving the same error.
    Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this issue and how to resolve it?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
    By the way, is everyone else having the same amount of problems with this software? I've never had any software that has had so many problems from the beginning. My opinion of this software and Adobe in general has gone down substantially.

    I am planning on purchasing Premier Elements 13, would it be better if I bought a new program rather than download an upgrade, just in case the upgrade doesn't load properly due to the error with my existing program?
    If I the deleted Premier Elements 9 on my PC would I lose all my existing videos that were produced using Premier Elements 9 or would they be saved so that they can still be worked on in Premier Elements 13?
    Does Premier Elements 13 work with Windows 7?
    Thanks
    Terry

    Premiere Elements 13 absolutely works with Windows 7!
    In fact, I'd highly recommend you download the free trial and give it a test run.
    Meantime, go to Windows Update and make sure you have all of the latest Windows updates, including those that don't install automatically. Then go to the nVidia or ATI site and ensure you have the latest driver for your graphics card, and go to Apple.com and ensure you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements.

    Vere Clarke
    Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and Premiere Elements 13 are standalone products.
    So, you can have both on the same computer, but only open one for your work.
    The classical recommendation is to finish a project in the version in which it was created since there
    is no guarantee that a project from an earlier version will open in the later version. Probably will, but
    no guarantees. And, when you do explore this, do it from a copy of the earlier version project. Once you
    take the earlier version project into a later version one, you cannot go back to edit the later version edited
    project in the earlier version program.
    If you have both versions (9 and 13) on the same computer and you have not moved, deleted, renamed any of the version 9's files/folders,
    right click the saved closed Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project file, select Open With, and then Adobe Premiere Elements 13.
    (Your 9.0/9.0.1 saved closed project file should be found in Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/9.0.)
    Please review and consider. If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Thank you.
