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?
