There are also subclips, in combination with Metadata description fields, it works pretty well for me. I also use titles in the timeline.

Yes, when you are done, right click on each clip and hit nest, you now have separate sequences for each clip.
You can then import them directly into Adobe Media Encoder, or export them separately.

August 19, 2011 at 2:57 am in reply to: Best practices in organizing projects with dynamic linkingSmall, small small. The more AE files I see the better.
I keep each project in its own folder which includes the name of the comp used. Otherwise, things can get messing if you ever need to relink. That also avoids an ugly mess coming out of duplicated precomps (I’m sure you know what I’m talking about… ooops, did that little change affect every other comps I’ve worked on so far!!!!)
I also like to get everything rendered out to a file as they are approved. So when the project is getting close to the end, small changes don’t require rendering every AE sequences. These days, I spend a huge amount of time organizing, and that can drive a sitting client crazy, but they’ll thank you later…

August 18, 2011 at 2:55 am in reply to: How to Toggle Clip Overlays to avoid changing opacity and/or audio levels?Hi David,
That’s something you should very quickly get used to.
But, you can go on the left side of the track and choose hide keyframes.

August 17, 2011 at 5:41 pm in reply to: CS 3.2 Please, what is the size limitation in pixels when importing stills?I wouldn’t put any thing over 4000×4000 pixels. This would likely make it a render hell.
Not sure if this is still the case, but any pictures scaled down over 50% used to cause huge render hits.
The best way to go about it is the create a macro in Photoshop to resize all your images. Photashop also happens to scale better than Premiere.

The simplest, and likely cheapest solution, would involve a copy of ProPresenter and a Triple head.
I’m assuming we are not talking about a blend?

August 15, 2011 at 4:00 pm in reply to: Only 30 seconds of audio showing in imported H264 filesHi Michael,
This is likely caused by the way it was encoded. Is that from a camera, or something that encoded for the web?

August 15, 2011 at 1:08 am in reply to: Render AE (After Effects) linked project in Premiere Pro (CS5.5)You could certainly render from AE to any format you like and use “replace with clip” in your sequence, but there is no “one Click” method. You can also change the sequence wide preview format.
Often, simple AE like lower thirds or titles often don’t need rendering to play realtime, so i use dynamic link for those and render the rest to uncompressed.
If you have a lot of clips, check out this Video Copilot preset.

It’s not going to happen in the background, although that would make a great feature request.
You can set your work area, Alt+[ and alt+] around the clip and go to Sequence > Render entire work area. I actually created a keyboard shortcut for that function using the Enter Key.
