  • Footage importing wrong

    So I’m working in FCP with 720p 29.97df footage. The clip I want to work with in AE is 13sec long. When I bring it into AE it is 15sec. A whole 2sec longer.

    What am I missing here?

    We’ll need a lot more information to try to help. What version of AE are you using? What is the codec of the footage? How did you get the file from FCP to AE? Does it have handles? Is AE interpreting the footage at the same rate as FCP is?
