    heey guys

    i have a question about the film magic pro presets/plugins from videocopilot.net from Andrew Kramer

    i’ve been working on a movie now for a while, and for an extra tweak i wanne use some cinema presents from this package. but i’m working now in Premiere pro, because that’s the editing programme.
    i am quit comfortabel with film magic pro in After effects, but is it also posible to use it in Premiere pro 2?

    the method to firs make my move, than render it from Premiere pro to an dvd file, than import this file into After effects, than apply the cinema preset and than use Dynamic link to premiere pro and than render it again is just not good enough, there must be an easier way

    many thanxs

    Greetzz

    If you have dynamic link, why are you rendering it as a DVD file from Premiere Pro ??? Why not bring it into After Effects, apply the film magic pro, then use the dynamic link to bring the AE comp into Premiere Pro, then create the DVD…less codecs, better quality.

    because you can use dynamic link only from AE to something, not the other way arround. so you can import AE things into Premiere pro, but not from premiere pro into AE. i think..

    You can copy and paste an edit from Premiere Pro onto an After Effects timeline, as far as I know 🙂

    heey,

    iv’e tried the dynamic link from premiere pro to AE – (new AE composition) and in AE , i get a comp file in AE witch says ” name+linkend comp file ” only there ar no layers or whatsoever in it, when i want to use this comp file in AE there’s nothing on the timeline, very weird,

    but i can copy and past it from PP to AE, only all transitions will be gone and other special PP things will be gone to and even my freeze frames will be different.

    is there no way that this film magic pro can be use in Premiere?

    otherwise, the best option i’ve got is that I’ll have to begin by making my movie first in AE (using film magic pro only for this movie, and mayby a couple of masks around the edges). than use Dynamic link to Premiere, and than editing. that is userfriendly as well 😛

    heey

    with the help of someone on the Premiere forum i think i have the answer

    just open the premiere pro project file in AE
    when i open my premiere pro project file in AE, then i’ll get all my nice footage en music, and the sequence is just right. yes this is the thing i was looking fore. only my freeze frames that i made in premiere are not at the same time in AE, but that is one sigle point.
    now I can apply the Film magic pro presets, than dynamic link to encore, and done ^^

    what does “dynamic link to encore” mean? Sorry I’m new to there programs. I applied Film magic pro effects to a PPproject imported into AE now i wanna export and render the final movie into avi/h.264

    You can import your AE project into Encore and render everything in encore to a final product if that is your prefer. (dvd menu’s also)
    In AE i think you can choose (after you did, At composition to render que) the avi/h.264 codec. As long as you render it.
