Copy from Adobe Premiere Pro to After Effects
You can copy a video or audio asset from an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence and paste it into an After Effects
composition. After Effects converts assets to layers and copies the source footage items into its Project panel. If the
asset contains an effect that is also used by After Effects, After Effects converts the effect and all of its settings and
keyframes.
You can copy color mattes, stills, nested sequences, and offline files, too. After Effects converts color mattes into solid-
color layers and converts nested sequences into nested compositions. When you copy a Photoshop still image into
After Effects, After Effects retains the Photoshop layer information. You cannot paste Adobe Premiere Pro titles into
After Effects, but you can paste text with attributes from the Adobe Premiere Titler into After Effects.
1 Select an asset from the Adobe Premiere Pro Timeline panel.
2 Choose Edit > Copy.
3 In After Effects, open a composition in the Timeline panel.
4 With the Timeline panel active, choose Edit > Paste. The asset appears as the topmost layer in the Timeline panel.
Note: To paste the asset at the current-time indicator, place the current-time indicator and press Ctrl+Alt+V (Windows)
or Command+Option+V (Mac
OS).
