This might be a huge guess on my part, but since you are new to Windows, it may simply be just installing the Quicktime Player. Are you able to play MP4’s on their own outside of Premiere?

Hey Mike.
I didn’t try bringing them into AE, but PShop opens them fine and perhaps that might give you some options as well. Two have four frames but the Maria one only has two. So perhaps its an interp issue in AE, but in any case you could just export separate frames.

Ah. Knew it had to be a simple process. I recall the need to prune first.
Thanks Walter -
I don’t believe it ever did but one would think in the more current versions they’d have addressed the issue. I’m still with CS6.

Might those be on the original install discs?
I’ve the Production Suite of CS6 but way away from those discs for a few more months so can’t even check.

Something along these lines?

Wonderful piece.
And thank Leo as well from everyone. -
There is; just look up Extruding text for your version of AE. I still use CS6.
But that’s largely I was suggesting the earlier tuts, which are hard to find with the way their sites arranged now, but they assume you’ve seen the earlier ones.
This is from ver 1.5 but the principles are still the same.

Then a bit more of a practical application:

Quick answer is that E3D works directly with Text. Trying to translate something done in 2D into E3D might be problematic though with the way 3D space is used.
My suggestion if you haven’t done so already is to snag some of Andrews earlier E3D tuts over on VideoCoPilot.com. He’ll touch on a number of basic things & pitfalls that aren’t easy to find trying to read any docs.

OK, found it.
Ya, obviously a separate comp. Could be a number of ways to do that, but my guess here is that they used Newton2. or I guess it’s up to 3 now.
Not inexpensive, but a heck of a lot of fun to use. Probably a few folk here though that could guide you using more native, less expensive ways but at least you’ve a starting point.
