Exporting a project for use in Adobe After Effects

You can import a saved Premiere project file into Adobe After Effects and apply finishing touches such as advanced keying features, effects, and animations. After Effects preserves the order of clips in the Timeline, footage duration, and marker and transition locations. After Effects converts transitions and titles in your project to solid layers, maintaining their original location and duration. It discards all Premiere transparency, motion, and effect settings.

After Effects provides many of the same export features as Premiere, so when you are done working, you can render your project in After Effects using any of the supported file formats. For more information, see the After Effects documentation.

To open a Premiere project in After Effects:

1 Save and close your project in Premiere.

2 Open After Effects and choose File > Import > Premiere as Comp.

3 Locate and select the Premiere project file, and click Open.
