  • How to use Twixtor AE plugins on several AP clips at once

    Posted by Jean-jacques Boug on August 10, 2012 at 6:22 pm

    Hello there,

    I have several clips in Adobe Premiere Pro that I want to slowmotion with Twixtor in After Effect.
    I have nested those clips in Premiere and then applied the plugin in After effect. Problem is, between those clips I get some distortion/blending althouth I didn’t select Frame Blending in After Effect.

    Do you guys have any other solution ?

    Cheers

    You have to apply the effect to the clips individually. Twixtor, when applied to a nested sequence or precomp treats the video as one solid block which means it will try and figure out the frames between cuts. This leads transitions to warp from one shot to the other.

    You don’t notice so much when speeding up footage, but if you are slowing the footage then this isn’t a great workflow.

    Ok that’s what I feared. So I will have to apply to each of the 500 clips. Anyway to do that in a fast way ?
    It takes me about 1 minute per clip..

    I don’t think you’re going to have a faster way to do this. When I use Twixtor I create a composition for each clip and then apply Twixtor. I honestly can’t think of how it could be done any faster.

    I guess I will do them one by one. Luckily I will just have to slow down about 30 clips instead of few hundreds ! Thank you

    Why not use an adjustment layer on top of your vision tracks?
