ADOBE AFTER EFFECTS 5.0
User Guide
Adobe Premiere
After Effects can import Premiere projects as compositions. Each video, audio, and still-
image clip appears on its own layer, arranged in the correct time-based sequence in the
Time Layout window. You can then manipulate these clips to create the sophisticated
effects and animations best produced in After Effects. If you use the After Effects filters
included with Premiere 6, those effects and their associated keyframes are also imported.
In addition, you can embed a link in the After Effects movies you output so that you can
use the Edit Original command in Premiere to open the original project.
Adobe GoLive
When creating a marker in After Effects, you can add a URL link that will be embedded in
rendered movies. When these movies are included in Web pages created by applications
such as Adobe GoLive
®
, the embedded URL is recognized during playback, initiating a
jump to the specified URL. You can even target a specific frame within the Web page.
Adobe LiveMotion
Create elaborate animations in After Effects and then import them into LiveMotion as
Macromedia
™
Flash
™
files. After Effects and LiveMotion use a similar time-based interface,
so moving between the two applications is easy.
