Premiere Pro to After Effects Clip Problem?
I am having some difficulty moving clips or sequences between Premiere Pro and After Effects. Adobe Production Studio Premium. All patches latest and greatest. Here is the problem.
After finishing my edit. I create a video track that I call “composite shots” These are shots I want to work on in After Effects. I copy from track 1 and paste these shots in track 2. Simple. I then delete track 1 and any audio tracks and save with a new name. This allows just a simple clean sequence of only shots I need to take into After Effects. Here is the problem:
Once I open these shots in After Effects by either copy and paste method or by opeing the project within After Effects, all of my shots are not correct. They all start at the beginning of the original clips capture in point. What I am saying is that if I have captured a 30 second clip originally in Premiere Pro and only used 5 seconds in my edit, the in / out point I used in the Premiere Pro Sequence is not coming across into After Effects.
I have done quite a few tests at this point and must be missing something very basic. This should be a no brainer.
Could someone please advise me on how to keep the in and out point correct?
Thanks

You’re copying/pasting the ‘trimmed’ clip in the PPro timeline into After Effects? You’re opening the PPro .proj in After Effects? I’ve using both those methods with my set up and I get trimmed clips into the After Effects timeline just fine.
(You mustn’t copy from the PPro Project window. And you have to double click and open the Comp in After Effects if you go down the open-the-PPro.proj-in After-Effects route. Obviously.)
Strange.
