There is a documented gamma shift when viewing in QuickTime. If you open color mgmt there is a check box to compensate for QuickTime. I would recommend exporting to the color space of your final distribution. If for the web then enable color mgmt for srgb 2.1. I have found success using these methods while maintaining consistency between ae and final out.

Your AE comp is 4K and your premier comp is 1080. When you bring your file into premiere you’ll need to scale it down to fit into your comp.

When you re-input the video are you disabling color mgmt?
Also I think the answer may be in the second screen shot, the way I’m reading it is that on export it’s doing a gamma shift from 2.2 to 1.0.

Are all the project files on a singular local drive?

Have you tried changing the render engine? Anytime i’ve had weird things like this happen I start with changing the ME render engine from either CUDA to OpenCL or to Software.

Essential a little trigonometry. If you overlaid the skewed shape on the original rectangle a triangle would be created. Solving for the sides of that triangle gives you the values needed to offset the position. The more you get into expressions the more math you will need to use. Basically everything you learned in school that you thought you would never use…you find a use.

Do you get them when playing the files outside of AE? If not try re-encoding them to another format like animation/prores/dnxhd and bring them back in.

Paste this into the shapes position and change the values to match your layer names. It will offset the positional value to keep the top left corner in place.
h = content("Rectangle 1").content("Rectangle Path 1").size[1];
b = Math.tan(content("Rectangle 1").transform.skew*Math.PI/180)*h;
x = transform.position[0]-b;
y = value[1];
[x,y]

It is most likely the way the skew is being calculated. The lower left corner is probably the anchor for the skew, which is why when there are less lines of text the top left corner shifts horizontally.
