Copying from Adobe Premiere Pro to After Effects (Windows only)
You can copy a video or audio asset from an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence and paste it into an After Effects compo-
sition.AfterEffectsconvertsassetstocompositionlayersandcopiesthesourcefootageintotheAfterEffectsProject
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.
You can copy color mattes, stills, nested sequences, and offline files into After Effects. After Effects converts color
mattes into solid layers and nested sequences into nested compositions. When you copy a Photoshop still into After
Effects, After Effects retains the Photoshop layer information. After Effects converts titles to solid layers.
When you paste an asset into an After Effects composition, keyframes, effects, and other properties contained in a
copied asset are converted as follows:
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 Not converted
