PrPro-AE with audio syncing- Help
Ok, so this is kind of hard to explain. I synced 15 videos to an audio track in Premiere Pro, making the mistake of not getting each video the same length- it looks something like this (they are synced to the green audio track)-
. I then linked each video as a comp. into Ae and started compositing. All worked well up until here. Then I brought in my final BG animation into AE and brought all the linked comps into a new comp. Now when I bring the new linked comp into Premiere Pro, the videos won’t be synced to the audio. The reason of the new comp. is I want to track the position of each clip onto the BG.
Any ideas what I can do about the syncing problem? -

It would be a lot easier to just bring your whole Premiere sequence into AE. Go to Import>Import Premiere Pro Composition in After Effects and it will launch a tool to bring your sequence into AE with all the layers synced up just fine.

That may have been a good option, except that I can’t import the linked AE comps from Premiere- It says those comps are missing.

I know my main track is a .aif, and all the other tracks are from the camera (t3i, I don’t know what format), and are just there so Premiere could sync to the main track. So are you meaning, I will manually have to line sync these files in AE? I might run into a problem there again, as my video files are already AE comps in PP, and I can’t double import them into AE, as it just says those files are missing.

I should have done what you said, right at the beginning, that would have been way better than what I did- replacing each separate video as an AE comp.

Basically what i was trying to do, and am still trying, is to get the videos synced with the track in PP (as it would be hard to do right in AE), and bring the videos into AE and do the effects and tracking.
So I decided to just go back to an autosave of the PP project (where the audio is synced), and import that sequence into AE, and now I’ll have to copy the effects I had from the previous project in AE.
