In Premiere you should create a standard PAL DV project, either 4:3 or widescreen depending on your footage.
In After Effects, create your comps the same way. Or just drop the footage on the new comp button and it will create the comp at the right size and duration for you.
When exporting, you need to use Video for Windows and use the Microsoft DV codec.
