You can try to right-click on the image in the project panel, click on Interpret Footage, then Main. If the alpha channel shows up you can select the type you created. Gifs may not support alpha channels though…
In which case you can apply Effect–>Keying–>Extract to remove the white portion (I’ve found that this usually works better than the Luma Key). Hopefully you don’t have any white in the image itself! If you do you can always mask that to keep it in. Hope this helps.

If you import the Premiere project into After Effects, all your trimmed clips will be in the After Effects timeline in the same order and for the same length of time as you have them arranged in Premiere. From here you can do whatever you want with them. Does this help?

I have to say I got really confused looking at this thread from the forum because you’re both David Johnsons!

Put an adjustment layer over all of them, and it will affect everything beneath it.

I would try one last thing before going any further. Try updating to the latest version of CS3. Launch AE and go to Help–>Update. If for some reason that is grayed out, you can use this link.
Hope this helps!

Hi Lon,
Updating the drivers on the card should fix it.

Hi Will,
For something like this you’ll really need to rotoscope. You can make your life easier by drawing separate masks around each leg, the torso, head, etc… But there’s no shortcut around this. Hope this helps!

Hi Chris,
It must be set as a linear keyframe. You can hold down control and alt at the same time, and drag out new handles.
