ADOBE PREMIERE PRO CS3 165 User Guide You can also copy nested compositions, Photoshop layers, solid layers, and audio layers. Adobe Premiere Pro converts nested compositions to nested sequences, and solid layers to color mattes. You cannot copy shape, camera, light, or adjustment layers to Adobe Premiere Pro. 1 Start Adobe Premiere Pro (you must start Adobe Premiere Pro before you copy the layer in After Effects). 2 Select a layer (or layers) from the After Effects Timeline panel. Note: If you select multiple layers and the layers don't overlap in After Effects, they're placed on the same track in Adobe Premiere Pro. On the other hand, if the layers overlap in After Effects, the order in which you select them determines the order of their track placement in Adobe Premiere Pro. Each layer is placed on a separate track, and the last selected layer appears on Track 1. For example, if you select layers from top to bottom, the layers appear in the reverse order in Adobe Premiere Pro, with the bottommost layer on Track 1. 3 Choose Edit > Copy. 4 In Adobe Premiere Pro, open a sequence in the Timeline panel. 5 Move the current-time indicator to the desired location, and choose either Edit > Paste or Edit > Paste Insert. Results of pasting into Adobe Premiere Pro When you paste a layer into an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence, keyframes, effects, and other properties in the copied layer are converted as follows: After Effects item Converted to in Adobe Premiere Pro Notes Transform property values and keyframes Motion or Opacity values and keyframes The keyframe type-Bezier, Auto Bezier, Continuous Bezier, or Hold-is retained. Effect properties and keyframes Effect properties and keyframes, if the effect also exists in Adobe Premiere Pro Adobe Premiere Pro lists unsupported effects as offline in the Effect Controls panel. Some After Effects effects have the same names as those in Adobe Premiere Pro, but since they're actually different effects, they aren't converted. Audio volume property Channel Volume filter Stereo Mixer effect Channel Volume filter Masks and mattes Not converted Time Stretch property Speed property Speed and time stretch have an inverse relationship. For example, 200% stretch in After Effects converts to 50% speed in Adobe Premiere Pro. Layer-time markers Clip markers Time Remapping properties Not converted Blending modes Not converted Expressions Not converted Copy from Adobe Premiere Pro to After Effects You can copy a video or audio asset from an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence and paste it into an After Effects composition. After Effects converts assets to footage layers and copies the source footage into its Project panel. If the asset contains an effect that is also used by After Effects, After Effects converts the effect and all of its settings and keyframes. April 1, 2008
