Thanks for responding Walter. Your ideas have given me something to work with.

Is there a way to make a normal map (in AE) out of a photo or a grey shaded graphic? I

Thanks for your advice, I figured I would end up using UNreal or Unity for this. Thanks for sending me the link to Mettle Skybox.

If I add a movie file in the watch folder it will start converting, but it won’t render a premiere project file.
Are you sure it was rendering a premiere project file ?

Thanks for sending me the screen grab.

So you have a directory that AME watches. When a ###.prproj is place in that watch directory AME should grab it and start rendering it, correct ?

Auto-Encode is checked. I put nothing in the Queue window.
Should I put something in the Queue window?
Or does the watch folder put files in the queue window once it detects a file has been placed in the watch folder?

Hi. am not at work just yet so I can check at the moment.
But yes I think I did have auto watch checked on.
Would you be able to send me a screen grab of you AME?

I am trying your idea. Though I have come across a problem.

I made a Adobe media encoder watch folder then copied my .prproj into it.
A output folder is automatically made but no movie file has been rendered there.

My Premiere project is setup the way you described with only one sequence in the main window and all other elements in bin/folders.

I hope you may help me figure out what I might be missing?

At the moment I set off command line .bat file batch render which renders the frames out of a game engine, and compiles the edit in AfterEffects.

But I want to use Premiere instead of AE to compile the edit. If I knew what the command line render for Premiere was I could add it to my .bat script.

December 15, 2014 at 10:02 pm in reply to: Ripple delete in AE to close a layered sequence?

I found a away to do it.
Select all layered elements and goto KeyframeAssistant/SequenceLayers.
This would allow me to close the gaps while keeping all the layers in sequence.

January 15, 2014 at 5:24 pm in reply to: Magnify tool in premiere ?

Thanks for responding Jeff.
Currently that is how I am zooming in. It’s a two stage process for me. I switch the drop down from Fit to %100, then with the scroll bars I slide my frame around to find the text. Since I am doing this regularly it starts to feel unnecessarily time consuming. So I was hoping someone knew of a faster way to do this, maybe there is a magnify utility in Premiere ?
The hotkeys for zooming in are suppose to be ctl+2, this isn’t working for me. Is there another hotkey for zooming into the Monitor window (I am working on a PC)
