Premiere Pro –> After Effects 24p problems
Anyone else out there capturing 24Pa footage in Premiere Pro (scene detect) and attempting to finish in AE?
When I open up my project in After Effects, the footage has interlacing problems–each clip is being interpreted wrong in its Remove Pulldown settings. It used to be with the last 3 projects I did that it would at least correctly Guess 24Pa Pulldown but now even that doesn’t work and I am staring at the need to individually Interpret Footage on each and every clip and try all 5 WSWWW options until I get the right one. As there are 120 shots on my timeline I’d rather not surrender the next 8 hours of my life dealing with a problem that Adobe should’ve fixed long ago.
PLEASE if ANYONE has experienced this problem and has a workaround, let me know!
All clips were captured according to their correct preset (Widescreen 24p), the AE composition is the right kind, etc.
CS3 (AE 8.0.2 27, PPro 3.2.0), Mac 10.5.2, DVX-100A.
Thanks for ANY help, we’re screening at IFC on Thursday and the last thing in the world we need to deal with is more Adobe bugs. I’ve never been able to get PPro and AE CS3 to talk to each other with 24p correctly, but with each new Adobe update it seems to be getting worse, not better. Thanks again,
Ryan

Wow. So basically batch capture–one of the biggest advantages to DIGITAL video, in that it automatically breaks up clips and you can re-digitize later if you need to–is broken in Premiere Pro in 24p? Isn’t that something they should note, as in, it’s a major bug? I’m pretty sure FCP doesn’t have the same issues (we’re using PPro because of economics, and because of Dynamic Link).
We’re shooting at a 40:1 ratio; right now we have 21 hours of footage and about 30 minutes of finished product. It is in NO way feasible for us to manually set in and out points for every clip on the tape. And here I was thinking that Adobe was going to turn around the Premiere franchise with the release of the “Pro” version. Normally you’d think “Pro” would mean “works as it should.” But here we are four versions in and a few YEARS later and it still can’t handle 24p correctly.
Ah well. Sorry for the rant; just about to lose a day of my life manually setting pulldown on 120 shots. Thanks for your help.
