After Effects CS3 with Premiere Pro CS5.5
Posted by Paddy Uglow on July 29, 2011 at 1:49 pmI’ve got the Adobe production premium CS3 installed (photoshop, after effects, premiere pro etc), but am looking into getting the standalone Premiere Pro CS5.5.
What’s my best way of working with AFX 3 and ppro 5.5 together? I tried the “dynamic link” thing and it wouldn’t work.
I’m something of a newbie on using AFX and Ppro together.
Thanks all

July 29, 2011 at 3:57 pmTo my understanding you can only use dynamic link when you install the production premium suite for the version you are working on. Not sure if this applies to 5 and 5.5 but having a standalone won’t allow the dynamic link to work. Not sure if there would be a work around for this either since it is a core component. You maybe be able to import the project but it wont be “dynamic”.
Just my thoughts thoughts

Or is there a better way of doing it? I haven’t yet got the hang of the premiere-AFX workflow really.
Thanks for your time– Paddy

Yes, but don’t use either of the codecs that you just mentioned. They are both lossy codecs. Use a lossless codec for intermediate files. People often use the Animation or PNG codec in a QuickTime container for that purpose.
