Rendering out of AE to Premiere
Would someone please take a second and explain to me the best way to export footage from Ae to Premiere. Currently I add it to the render que (lossless, best quality) and then import the file into Premiere but then it has to render again. This does not seem right, and it I also suspect I am not getting maximum quality. I have searched through posts to find the answer but I have found little help, probably because I have only a vague understanding of fields and “interpret footage” and the like. I am sure if I tediously searched through AE’s help I could find it, but this is so much more efficient.
Thanks.

Hey,
It depends on how you set up your project in Premiere. For example, if you’ve chosen to use the DV NTSC 48khz preset in Premiere, and you bring over an uncompressed file from AE, Premiere has to ‘render’ the file with the DV codec in order for you to preview it without the red line at the top of the timeline. If you set up a project in Premiere using the exact same codec you used to render the file in AE, you won’t get the red line. However, your computer probably won’t be fast enough to play the file back!
Try this: in AE, render out a file using the Microsoft DV codec and bring it into Premiere that uses the DV codec for its timeline…you don’t have to do anything to preview it, nothing but green line across the top.
Loss in quality? For me, the real test is to look at the file you render out of Premiere after you’ve finished with all your editing.
Take care,
Nick
