Shift 2 frames from Premiere to AE
Hi,
Having a strange problem. I’ve cut a short film in Premiere – and have imported into After Effects to grade the footage.
Now – I’ve discovered that all my footage in After Effects has shuffled exactly 2 frames forward in my timeline. (eg: frame 1:00:01 in my offline = frame 1:00:03 in After Effects).
Sounds like I’ve made a mistake and stuck in 2 frames at the start somewhere by accident.
HOWEVER – all my cuts, right through to the last (I have about 100 cuts) ALL line up with the offline. Eg: if frame 1:00:01 is a clip’s out point in Premiere, it’s also an out point for the same clip in AE.
So – somehow all the footage has ‘slipped’ a finite amount, but the edit points have remained the same. How can that happen?
I’m quite the novice in After Effects, but know my way around video programs generally – can someone spot what I may have done wrong?
(initially thought this was a field problem – for the record I’m cutting in HDV 1080i PAL, and importing into AE upper field first)
Look forward to some feedback! Thanks in advance…
Asher.

I just came across this 2 frame shift on my editing.
Why does it happen?
Any fix for it?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Still have no idea why it happened, but using the “slip” tool I selected all the clips and moved them all back 2 frames! Easy fix actually…

Asher, I’m fixing on AE shot by shot…
What’s this SLIP tool? Is it on AE or Pr? Where can I find it?
Thanks a lot man!

I easily googled and found out I could drag the part “outside” of the trimmed video marks and easily make the slip.
Before I was going back two frames on the start and going back two frames at the end, pretty boring and stupid If I can insult myself :).
Anyway, thanks a lot for the help.
PS: Using the slip tool
