USING ADOBE PREMIERE PRO
Workflows and setup
Copy from After Effects to Adobe Premiere Pro
You can copy a layer based on a footage item from an After Effects composition and paste it into an Adobe Premiere
Pro sequence. Adobe Premiere Pro converts these layers to clips in the sequence and copies the source footage item to
its Project panel. If the layer contains an effect that is also used by AdobePremiere Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro converts
the effect and all of its settings and keyframes.
You can also copy nested compositions, Photoshop layers, solid-color layers, and audio layers. Adobe Premiere Pro
converts nested compositions to nested sequences, and solid-color layers to color mattes. You cannot copy shape, text,
camera, light, or adjustment layers to Adobe Premiere Pro.
1 Start Adobe Premiere Pro (you must start AdobePremiere 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
AdobePremiere 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 bottom-most layer on Track 1.
3 Choose Edit > Copy.
In Adobe Premiere Pro, open a sequence in the Timeline panel.
4
Move the current-time indicator to the desired location, and choose either Edit > Paste or Edit > Paste Insert.

Notes
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.
