importing premier sequence (wrong in and outs)
by tim craft on May 20, 2008 at 10:16:37 pm

I am trying to import a sequence that I cut in premier. It all imports, but I get different in and out points at various parts of my comp in ae.

Please let me know about anything I can do to get this fixed.

Thanks

tim

hi there,

can you tell me exactley how you imported it? and by "different in and out points at various part of the comp", you mean at the segments you cut in premiere?

I tried two different ways of importing it.

First I did the traditional file import and selected the premier sequence I wanted to import. When I brought that sequence into a new comp the in and out points that I made in premier were off at certain points. Most of the time it cut away from the shot too earlier and moved on to the next cut.

I also tried copying and pasting into after effects. The same problem occurred.

Thank for your help!

Tim

There are 2 things that I know will screw it up.

1) If you are trying to import subclips, it screws up the import (at least on my machine it does).

2) The Scale to Frame Size option on the Clip menu. I forget if it is supposed to be checked or unchecked, but one will screw up Premiere imports. Just try switching it from what you currently have.

hi there,

when you imported your PP project into After effects using file->import. You must double click on the sequence file you see in the project panel(no drag/drop). This should work and should not give any problems. Other thing you have to look at is the format, mayby you're using a format in PP that AE doesn't like which resulting in different stuff(see the specification on the adobe website for AE and all it's formats it can handle)
