Text won't import from flash to after effects

Dear all,
I'm relatively new to Flash (and an absolute novice at AE). I've been working on a series of simple videos in Flash that have alternating text and images. The idea was to import these .swf into Premiere Pro. However, Premier Pro doesn't take .swf files and I have to go through AE. When I import my .swf into AE all the text disappears and I only have the images. Any idea how to work around this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

See this note from After Effects Help about what is imported from a SWF file:
"SWF files are imported with an alpha channel. Audio is not retained. Interactive content and scripted animation are not retained. Animation defined by keyframes in the main, top-level movie is retained."

  • Export from Flash to After Effects or Illustrator?

    So I was given a Flash puppet from someone that animates in Flash. I wanted to take that file with it's layers and use it in After Effects. How can I do this? The file is Flash CS5 but I'm using all CS6.

    THANK YOU!!!!  It was at 30 FPS, I was spending hours importing a new PNG sequence 1 frame extra at a time trying to fix it!
    Totally fixed the issue.

  • Problem with sound when import from Premiere into After Effects

    Hi!
    I imported a sequence from a Premiere Pro project using File -> Import -> Adobe Premiere Project...
    The video in the sequence showed up in the After Effects project as a composition.  However, the composition did not include the sound from the sequence!  Is there a way to keep the sound from the sequence upon import into After Effects?
    Thanks

    i`m sorry about the screenshot size, but i could only upload pics with 605 px width.
    Nevertheless it seems that you saved my day. looks like it was all about the scale to framesize thing.
    thank you so much!!!!

  • IMovie HD won't import from Sony HDR-HC1

    iMovie HD 5.0.2 (111) on my G5 desktop controls, but won't import from, my new little Sony HDR-HC1 1080i DV camcorder. Same was the case with my 12" 1 GHz PowerBook until, at the advice of a Manhattan Beach Genius Bar tech, I did an archive reinstall of 10.4 and a reinstall of iMovie HD on both my G5 PowerMac and G4 PowerBook and then downloaded all the updates. Now my PowerBook works, but my PowerMac still won't import. On an empty second HD in my PowerMac I installed OS 10.4 and iMovie HD ONLY (to create as sterile as possible of an environment), made the 2nd HD my startup drive, and still iMovie HD on my PowerMac will not import from this camera (although it will from an older Sony VX-1000 regular def camcorder).
    Does anybody have any solutions, or any idea why iMovie HD now imports on my PowerBook but after the same makeover still won't on my PowerMac?
    Per earlier posts, I tried playing some piano notes in Garage Band, trashing the iMovie preference files, and reinstalling QuickTime (the tech had heard QT 7.0.3 could be at fault from becoming corrupted in certain updating combinations), all to no avail.
    HELP!

    I have had import/capture problems using FW drives with FCE/iMovie5 and my 2gig iMac. My canon GL2 works fine but only when no other FW devices are connected to the FW port I use the computers internal drive to capture. If your using the G5's internal SATA drives this (below) may not apply.

    Some G5 users have had to purchase a FW PCI card or have the G5 front FW port replaced. Check this link.

  • Images won't import from Lightroom. (I have Creative Cloud 1.7.1.418/Photoshop (2014)/Lightroom 5.6)

    Images won't import from Lightroom to be edited. There were no problems until I upgraded to Photoshop (2014). LR & Photoshop work well independently (I have Creative Cloud 1.7.1.418/Photoshop (2014)/Lightroom 5.6). All are up-to-date.

    I had the same problem.  It seems the scripts that control the transfer of images from LR to Photoshop got deleted or messed up.  The fix I found on the LR forum was as follows:
    This solution allows you to run a repair installation without uninstalling Photoshop CC 2014. If you've already uninstalled Photoshop CC 2014, install it from the Apps tab of the Creative Cloud desktop application.
    Open the Creative Cloud desktop application.
    Select the Apps tab.
    Scroll down (if necessary) until the Find New Apps section displays.
    On the same line as Find New Apps, select Filters & Versions > Previous Version.
    Click the Install button next to Photoshop and select CC 2014.
    Click Yes, install this version.
    Once I did this, the interaction between LR and PS CC 2014 started working again.  I did notice that Photoshop showed up as needing to be updated in the Adobe CC application so I just clicked on the update button and after a few minutes photoshop had been updated.  The importing function still works so I think everything is OK.
    Not sure if this was part of the problem, but after updating the PS CC 2014 application  the first time, I uninstalled the original PS CC application as I didn't need it anymore.  I'm thinking that may have caused the scripts to be uninstalled along with the PS CC application.  Rerunning the installation put things back to normal.
    Hope this helps.

  • Adobe Flash/Photoshop/After Effects CS4 Installation - Internet Explorer Script Error

    Greetings everyone. Another Adobe Installation disaster story.
    I'm trying to install the aforementioned products (Flash, Photoshop, After Effects) on my computer, but I get about 20 "Internet Explorer Script Error"'s every time. [I don't even use Internet Explorer] I don't understand why the installation worked on a different computer I own but not this one. Both of them are running Windows XP Home.
    I've already tried removing all Adobe Products, using msicuu2.exe, CS4CleanupScript from Adobe, etc...
    This is the install log that was generated for Flash.
    Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  • Import animated model in after effects

    Hello guys.I was wandering if there is a way to import a 3d model that was animated in programs like 3ds max an so.I mean not just rotation and possition but animated some part of the object also.e.g if it is a humman then he have to have animated hands.Thanks in advance and if there is something that u didnt understand , feel free to ask plsease.

    I already have some pretty good 3D applications that can output OBJ and DXF amongst others (also FBX).  Do I really need to buy Zaxwerks JUST to import my OBJ into After Effects CS6?  In previous versions I could export an OBJ to Photoshop Extended and then import that as a 3D layer into AE (I just saw a tutorial on it) But I just learned that that functionality has been removed from AE CS6.  So what do I do now to get a 3D model into AE as a 3D layer?  I don't necessarily want to render everything from the 3D application as stills.  I would like to try to use AE's cameras so that I can integrate other AE layers with my 3D objects. 
    Or should I just stick to the old guns and do everything in the 3D application and render as stills?

  • Importing Illustrator layers into After effects, released to layers yet still one layer- ?

    Hi,
    Please bear with me as this should be a simple fix but the situation is hard to describe.
    I want to import layers from Illustrator into After Effects. I need the AI layers to have their "handles" (the four corners of the object) close in around the object and not spread out to the corners of the composition. I figured out how to do this: by "releasing layers to sequence" in Illustrator and then dragging them out of the group they were all in. Then I "import as composition - retain layer sizes" into AE. When I open the illustrator composition in AE, it's layers appear in AE as separate layers and with the layer 'handles' tight around the objects (all is well). BUT here is what I want to do: I have a layer/object in Illustrator that I "image traced" to make it black but it still has some white parts to it. So I drew two black rectangles around the white parts. But now when I bring it into AE, they all appear as separate layers (the image traced object and the two rectangles) but I want those black rectangles to be literally part of the object that I image traced. In photoshop this would be akin to "flattening the layers". I can do this in AI by "merging" the layers, but if I do that I am brought back to the problem of having AE put the layer's 'handles' to the corners of the comp window and not tight around the object. Frustrating!
    So I basically want to be able to paint over/cover up the white parts of my object without that creating new layers/objects.
    Thanks for reading!
    T

    I'm not clear what you are describing. Have you actually tried other import settings in AE? There is some bug with the retain layer size stuff, but other combinations might work. Also try exporting a PDF of the artwork and using that. This may work better.

  • A very important question for every After Effects user

    a very important question for every After Effects user, from product manager Steve Forde:
    http://adobe.ly/1exI6tI

    Tom Daigon Great idea everybody! Encourage Adobe to do ONLY ONE THING with AE for 2014. Since theres not a heck of a lot of development that can be done on the present foundation, they can really stretch the rental scheme out for many years.And once you get used to the concept, every year they will do ONE THING to placate you. So now they have you swallowing no "ownership" of software and limited development. 

  • Import files.mov in After Effects.

    Hi everyone.
    I'm coming to you because I have a new problem when I'm importing my files.mov in After Effect cs6.
    I use "Toon Boom Studio" to make stickman animation (it's for a project for my school) and when I'm exporting the file, I set 25 fps, 1920x1080 resolution and Apple ProRes 422 compression.
    When I'm playing the animation in quicktime, we can see that every parameters are corrects :
    But when I import this file in After Effect CS6, a strange thing happened :
    The fps of this file is to 26.042 and especially I don't have all the frames of my file. I mean there isn't the last frame of my animation. It seems that my animation was cut at the end. But it isn't when I played it in Quicktime or VLC.
    I'm sorry for my english, I hope you will understand me.

    Hello,
    You means changes the fps of the file to 26.042 to 25 ? If it's what you are talking about, I already try this, but it still miss the end of my animation.
    I create an animation with a stickman of 8 frames, 4 differents :
    And when I open it in After Effect, there isn't the last one. And it seems that the first picture last 3 frames in AE instead of 2.

  • Problem with importing premiere project into after effects

    Hi. When I import premiere project into after effects CS4 the files I speed up 2x (for example) look likes on the snapshot below, and they are not in the correct places.
    what can I do?

    Then don't speed them up... This is "as designed". AE and Premiere are not compatible in their tiem-remapping/ time-stretching, so tehre is no way to move between them without losing that info.

  • Flash or After Effects

    Hello everyone. I am new to CS3. What's the difference
    between Flash and After Effects? Sense I bought the Master
    collection, I want to use everything in this CS3. And I confused on
    the two.
    I want to create animation and still image reels for my
    clients websites and don't know which one to use or start off with?
    Thanks

    Well, it depends what you use Flash for. Certainly it's not
    for timeline
    animation for many developers. I haven't used the timeline in
    a long time -
    I'd tell you that Flash is mostly used for web site building,
    RIA's, data
    viz, and the like. But there are plenty of people using it as
    an animation
    tool... It just depends on your needs. AfterEffects has a
    timeline too...
    you can do animation in it as well. But mostly it is for
    post-processing -
    hence the name. You can build effects, and animations in AE
    and play them in
    Flash as FLV files. In either case, it sounds like you need
    to do some
    reading.

  • Flash or After Effect?

    I am new to the CS3 collection. I'm confused on what's the difference between flash and After Effect?, and why do I need both? I want to create animation and image reels for my clients website, but don't know which software to use. Any help u give would be really helpful.
    Thanks

    Yeah, this reminds me a little of visual effects in your better movies; to make them convincing, they usually mix several techniques and tools. Lord of the Rings used CG, puppets, matte paintings, costumes, forced perspective, etc.
    Likewise, Adobe.com integrates After Effects-made movies into a Flash/HTML environment with Photoshop backgrounds, Illustrator vectors, etc.
    For really lush movies with deep environments, photo-realistic environments, and special effects (as well as million other options), After Effects is what you want.
    For interactive environments on the web with clean lines, and vector art, Flash is what you want.
    However, to integrate your After Effects movies into an interactive, lush environment, you probably need both, as well as other software such as Photoshop, Soundtrack, or a 3D application to get what you want.
    It's probably better for you to decide what you want to do (specifically) and then figure out what tools you need to do the job. You wouldn't go buy a power-saw and cordless drill to tune-up a bicycle. You would look at the job at hand and go buy tools like allen wrenches, spoke wrenches and air pumps.
    You should download the demos of the software and see what you like. You may find you might be biting off more than you can chew (or not) and that you don't want anything to do with ActionScript coding or keyframe based animation. Who knows?
    Good luck!

  • IMovie won't import from iPhoto (this is different than all the other post)

    Before you think, "Oh... this is the typical 'iMovie 7 isn't importing iPhoto movies' question" this isn't. I've looked through a ton of threads and questions trying to find something similar to this.
    Q: I have all my digital camera (Canon SD500 camera (not camcorder), no known compatibility issues with Apple) movies, which are in .AVI format, in iPhoto. iMovie is being weird as in it will only import SOME of my camera movies. For some events, it imports ALL the movies in. For some events, it won't import ANY of the movies in. For some events, it will only import SOME of the movies included in it.
    If someone responds, "Your camera is incompatible" OR "the file format isn't supported" they should have points deducted from their account because they didn't read anything except for the first sentence and decided I don't know what I'm talking about.
    Here's some interesting things that have happened:
    1) I found ONE event in question called "Wedding Pictures & Movies" that wasn't showing up in iMovie. The camera we took movies with has other movies in other events that have successfully been imported into iMovie. But anyway, I realized that for some programming languages (I don't know if this is true with iMovie, I doubt it) that the ampersand (&) sign is used in code and shouldn't be used in titling things. So I shortened the name down to "Wedding" and all the sudden (more like after iMovie asked me if I wanted to create the thumbnails for the movies), SOME of my movies were put into iMovie, not all.
    2) Upon realizing that either: the event name was too long OR the & sign actually did screw it up, I shortened another event in question from "Reception Pictures & Videos" to simply "Reception". Upon opening iMovie, it never asked to build the thumbnail library with movies from this "Reception" event that I did the exact same thing to as the "Wedding" event.
    3) I thought I would try and force iMovie to refresh the thumbnail database (or build thumbnails for another movie again) by taking another movie with said camera above, the same one that I've taken all the other movies with, and imported the movie into iPhoto. Upon opening iMovie, it asked me to build the thumbnail, but only did so for the movie that I just took.
    What could be going on that movies from the same camera aren't showing up in iMovie? I can understand other cameras, but these movies are all from the same camera. Some will show up while others will not? Does anyone have a clue what could be going on here?
    BTW, the movies have not been edited in any way. They are all still in the exact same format and everything since they were imported into iPhoto.
