Precompose your flag animation, then make separate compositions for each new text layer. Add the flag precomp to each of these. You can use the new(ish) Edit –> Copy with Property Links function to use the first text animation as a sort of master control for the rest.

Try copying the audio into a new sequence and importing that via Dynamic Link into Premiere. Or just export your sequence as an audio file and bring into After Effects.
AE is not really made to work with audio so in general I like to add my audio in Premiere after I am done with After Effects. But you may have reasons for not doing it that way, so either of the above solutions should work.

What’s the resolution and file format of the clip you are tracking?

I think making it look realistic in post will be very difficult if you just use AE. I agree a 3D application is necessary. Maybe check this video out for how to create the effect.
Now shooting it is a whole different ballgame. Definitely do lots of tests beforehand.

Media Encoder actually has YouTube presets under the H.264 settings. I would check those out. Just make your exports 2-Pass instead of 1-Pass, which is selected by default. I think it improves the quality, particularly if there is motion in your video. Pretty much every online video host like Youtube will recompress your video anyway, so I tend to keep the bitrate a little on the higher end (Minimum 16, Maximum 20).

Leaving AE open does use resources, but if you’ve got a good machine it really shouldn’t affect the render times in Premiere. Although Dynamic Link is great, you still need to render almost anything in order to see real time playback in Premiere. I don’t believe RAM previewing will make it any faster.

After trying every other solution, I saw this post and thought there was no way it would be that simple (and silly). Turns out it was! Just moved the application window slightly and it’s back to working.

Glad you solved it!

The example you posted looks like real rose petals shot at a high frame-rate… From a quick google search, here is an example of creating falling particles in After Effects. Simply swap out the confetti for rose petals.

Not sure exactly what you are looking for, but using a custom sprite in Trapcode Particular is a good place to start. Find a few different rose petal images and even export some animating rotation to use as the particles.
