  • Exporting Marker Metadata to clip

    Trying to figure out if this is possible to help out with some workflow issues. Is it possible that an After Effects composition can be exported that retains markers with the clip that can be read by Premiere Pro CC?

    Ideal Scenario: Graphic artist designs an animated template with information periodically entering screen. Renders a .mov file that includes markers where keyframes start for each animation. Separate editor receives .mov file, imports file into Premiere Pro CC and has markers within clip to easily adjust timing to fit voiceover timing.

    Or if anyone has any suggestions of alternative workflows that would be appreciated as well.

    I don’t know of a way to save comp markers into the rendered file.

    I use Chris Green’s excellent Queue_Comp_Sections script [link] to break renders like this into chunks. If you find this script helpful, or any of his other awesome time-saving scripts, you might consider sending a few bucks his way.
