Text template from After Effects CC to Premiere Pro CC not possible?

Posted by Terje Rian on June 3, 2014 at 1:42 pm

Hello,

I’m about to make a few After Effects CC templates for use in Premiere Pro CC. It should be a straight forward process, but I can’t seem to find the proper option for making this work in the After Effects Composition Setting:

“In the Advanced tab of the Composition Settings dialog box, check the box next to “Template (unlocked text layers editable in Premiere Pro”. Note the important descriptive text under this control: “When ‘Template’ is checked, only template compositions in this project will be visible to Premiere Pro.”

I’m using After Effects CC (updated today), but the Template option refered to above isn’t available under the Advanced tab. What am I missing?

Thank you for your help!

Kind regards,

What version of CC are you running?
Where are you seeing that description of what to do?
That is a feature that has been announced for the next version of After Effects, but that version is not released yet.

Hello Michael,

Thanks for your reply. I’m using After Effects ver 12.2.

This option is explained in the following video. Nothing suggests that it’s about a forthcoming feature. Mr. Meyer speaks as it already exists:

Here you have another video on the topic:

It’s referred to an update in April from what I understand?

The Adobe info (and my description) is found on the following link. Here it’s suggested that it’s about an upcoming feature, so you’re probably right?

Thanks for your help, Michael!

This feature is not in the currently available version of After Effects.

This feature is in the version that will be released soon.

Hello Todd,

Thank you for your clarification. I’m really looking forward to receive to new update. “Soon” sounds good, but probably not soon enough. Clients usually tend to demand their preferred solutions yesterday… 🙂

Kind regards,

Hi Todd,

Can you confirm whether this feature is now live in the latest release of AE 2014 13.5.0.24? All the nuts and bolts seem to be there but it’s not updating in Premiere 2014 (v8.0.1 (6)).

Building a versioning kit at the moment so would be incredibly useful to know when this feature is to be finalised.

Thanks

Matt S
