Video Title: Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects workflow: Dynamic Link | Cinecom.net
After effects for compositing and premiere pro for editing your videos two amazing tools for your post-production workflow but two programs what’s the best workflow here to go back and forward between these two hey folks jordy here for cinecom.net welcome to the creative videography channel now you might have already heard
About it dynamic link it’s this thing that’s almost any adobe application has and it allows their different programs to communicate with each other so let’s head over to the computer and see how this thing works but most importantly find a workflow that is fast and user-friendly we are inside adobe premiere pro and
What you’re seeing here are just some random shots as a demo for this tutorial it’s just me sitting down on a chair and suddenly i see this uh letter laying down but it seems to be a bill so that’s why this expression over here as you can
See i’m not in the mood to pay that bill anyways we want to bring this into after effects because we want to do some visual effects perhaps lower the price of that bill or something or add some animations to it so we’re going to talk about the workflow of working with clips
From and to after effects there are basically two ways we can do that we can either bring the stuff from premiere into after effects or bring the stuff from after effects to premiere i’m going to start with showing you the first one bringing the sequence the entire timeline of premiere pro to after
Effects and we’re going to take a look at the benefits of that first so right here i’m inside after effects just an empty project i’m going to close the beginning screen here and i’m going to open up or locate the project file of premiere pro that we were seeing in the
Beginning and i’m going to drag that project file just inside after effects just like so that will make a connection with dynamic link the stuff that i was talking about in the beginning of this video from there you can select the sequence that you want to import in here
And match this video one press ok and it’s imported as one single clip i can drag that into the timeline here to create a new composition and play that video back now the great thing here is that we didn’t have to export this from uh premiere pro and import it back
Inside after effects now we’ve actually made a link between these two and let me just show you quickly the benefits of doing that let’s say that this shot right here i would like to color correct to do that very easily i can just go back to premiere pro stand on that clip
And i’m going to change my workspace to color to change the color correction i’m just going to do something drastic in here let’s just add some more warmth into this shot so that you can actually see it happening and i’m just going to tap back to after effects and look what happens
Bang also the clip in there has been adjusted so there you can see the link working now this is all good if you have an added lock as well and that is not really a technical throne it’s just something that you have to mind yourself on once you’re done with your edits that
You’re going to say to yourself it’s locked right now and i’m not going to change anything anymore in my edits because if i’m going to go back to premiere pro and i’m going to move that clip here to a different spot we had this black hole and that is also visible inside
After effects as you can see so that means if i’m going to do something with this particular shot i’m going to animate a miniature car driving on this table for example well when i’m going to drag that clip to a different spot in premiere well then that car will just
Drive on top of a black video like we have right here also we don’t really see the individual clips in here so that’s also something that you have to be aware of so why would this be good well if you are doing some general stuff for example
You’re just going to track some text in here making some very basic animations just anything where you’re not really going to blend or cut or do anything individually with these clips then this right here is a pretty good workflow definitely because you can always go back to premiere and do other changes
Like the color corrections but there’s also of course another workflow which is more popular and that is by sending specific clips to after effects what i’m going to do is close after effects and i’m not going to save this project we’re going to start from a blank page going
To undo this action here as well now what we can do is select one or multiple clips in here and send them to after effects so for the example i’m just going to select two right click on them and say replace with after effects composition when you click on that after
Effects will open up and it will ask you to save the project file which is something that you have to do prior let’s just name this anything for example after effects and press on save and as you can see the two clips has been imported plus a composition has
Been created and we can now work individually on these clips you can see the actual length of that clip which is also more convenient and if we are going to take a look back inside premiere you will see that these two clips have been changed by that one composition that we
Had also here in the project panel you can see that composition has been imported so yes that does also mean that we can drag in after effects project files right inside premiere just like we were doing in the beginning of the screencast now the benefit of this is
That we can of course move this composition around in a timeline we can do other things like slicing that clip again doing color corrections on it perhaps we’re going to blend some lens flares onto it so we still have a little freedom we’re kind of using premiere as
The main editing place here where everything happens where everything comes together and after effects is just one input source now let’s go back to after effects and do something here let’s say that we want to add some pretty cool effects let me just head over to the effects and presets and i’m
Just going to drag some stuff onto it don’t mind it too much for example this blob lies what else do we have lens smear looks pretty cool as well make sure that we still see something in here something like that just smearing that out radius is a little bigger there we
Go this is a pretty awesome pretty cool effect now this plays back pretty okay inside after effects you know the performance that’s pretty okay but if we are going to go back to premiere with having this dynamic link in action the performance has been decreased a lot and
That is one of the limitations of dynamic link i am able to play this back but as you can see it doesn’t go that smoothly even though it was going smoothly in after effects and that is one ugly face right there but there is a pretty good solution for that but that’s
For after this short break discover premium beats library of high quality royalty-free music and enhance your video with the work of professional composers with an array of styles and jars available it’s easy to find your ideal track fast plus you can download free full-length previews before purchasing to make sure that your track
Suits your project perfectly check out the link in description below to get listening welcome back folks now we can just render this clip by hitting the return key and now you can see this little line here on top has turned green which means we can play that back real time because it’s rendered
But let’s assume that we are going to do the color corrections now onto it inside premiere that means i’m going to make changes to a clip that i’ve rendered let me just do that i’m going to decrease the exposure and already you see that that line has turned red again because
It’s not the same anymore as its source file so that means premiere is telling me well you made changes to it you’ll have to re-render this and that is an issue this is not really user friendly this is not a good workflow it still plays back awful right now now luckily
Premiere came up with a pretty good solution for this what we can do is render this but also replace this clip with the rendered file and that is easily done by the functionality by just right clicking on this composition here and click on render and replace that
Will prompt you how you would like to render that and what we’re going to do is make sure that the source is always on individual clips because that will make sure that each clip is separately rendered always gives you more flexibility when you’re going to move stuff around the format dnxhd is pretty
Good as well i’m not going to go too deep in all of this basically what you want to do is just hit that ok button and that will just render that clip as you can see inside the project panel also that rendered file has been added
To it it has been replaced with the composition but the composition is still there also something important and also something that we’re going to come back in just a minute the great thing is that we can do color corrections onto it right now and we’re doing that not on
The composition but we’re doing that directly on that render file so that’s why we can always play this back in real time while making changes to it and that face really keeps creeping me out seriously i’m going to go back to after effects and remove that effect because i don’t feel good anymore
Just remove all this here let’s add something better to this for example the liquify which is also a pretty cool effect you can just take stuff and smear that to different spots like that not that my face looks better now i still feel creeped out anyways let’s go back
To premiere pro as you can see nothing has changed in here so that is a little problem that we have so what we have to do here is make sure that we have an after effects lock in our mind as well that means we have done our visual
Effects we’re not going to make changes to it anymore and that’s also the reason why we can render it inside premiere let’s assume that you are making changes because you don’t like your face in this shot then we have to bring the composition back in this place here
That’s luckily done very easily what we can do is just double click here on the composition so that means the actual source inside the program monitor as you can see here this is the thing that we’ve changed now with the smear and since we have that in the source monitor
Open now we can right click on that render file and say replace with clip from source monitor and bang everything is back and also our color correction is still on that clip which is very important of course and now we can re-render that again so this is one
Great workflow to make sure that everything stays at speed in your timeline in premiere pro there’s one last thing i will show you guys and that is if you are working with text let’s say that you have made a text animation well there’s also there a pretty cool
Workflow let’s send a different clip to after effects this one right here with the awesome expression right click onto it say replace with after effects composition that will open that up and the same project that i had in after effects right here so we don’t have to
Create a new project and let me just create any text in here take the text tool like say text goes here just drag that a little bit bigger and pretty cool thing is as long as we are keeping this as a text layer we can do
Anything to this so we can also add effects to it let’s add that lens effect onto it let me just create a quick animation here something where it kind of pops open just make a keyframe for the size a little bit further in time and there we go the text is there
You know text goes here i’m going to go back to premiere pro as you can see the text isn’t there the animation everything is here but you know i’d like to change that text there are different ways we can do that we can go back into after effects but
You know i’ve already closed after effects and do not wish to open that again well no worries inside your project panel here just double click on that linked composition so that it’s opened up in your source monitor and then headed over to effects controls and look at that
We can just change the text in here this is always something that you have to do on the source clip so you can’t double click here on the clip in your timeline so from here we can just change that text to to mr awesome which kind of says
Something about the person here in this shot not sure who that is but it does seem awesome to me so there we go the animation everything that we’ve created in after effects is still intact it’s still there just the text has been changed it’s that simple now if you are
Running an older version you do need to enable that option inside after effects and you can do that so i’m just going to go back to after effects here quickly inside your project panel make sure to right click on your composition of this shot here and go to composition settings now
Somewhere right here and i believe it was under the advanced app you will see use text as template or something in a newer version adobe has removed that and just made it work by default but i believe somewhere around creative cloud 2015 or 2014 i’m not entirely sure you
Had to enable that and if you don’t see this option and doesn’t work as well that means you really have an old version and you should either update your after effects to make that work so that’s just about the workflow from bringing clips back and forward to after effects and premiere pro

Great video. Straight to the point.
Awesome, Thank You, very detailed and clear.
please… please help…, I often experience problems when there is a speed ramp. there is always a difference in a few frames or even a shift in a few frames. in some cases it was even completely cut off until only one frame remained on the AE layer… how to solve this? I know by removing all the speed ramps, the problem is solved. but even with that, sometimes the cut in/out shifts a few frames.. Is this a disadvantage of using dynamic links and I have to accept it?
what if I want to edit my premiere clips that are now linked to AE? I am not able to access them anymore in the Premiere environment.
Thanks for the informative but also entertaining video 🙂
Going through the internet trying to find content on doing this where the mic audio isn't from the source clip.
I record video with a camera and sync it up with Adobe Audio recording from a different microphone.
I unlink the source audio, delete it, and link the video with the new audio.
So…… how do I get Dynamic link to use the correct audio channel, it completely ignores the ONLY AUDIO channel and uses the source again.
Premiere pro 2023 is not showing the original clip. I need the original so I can remove all the color and send to davicni resolve for proper color grading, but premiere pro will not show the original clip.
The second method to the last minute of the video was so worth it.. Before watching this video I usually do it in premier first. I know you can dynamic link but it's too lag for me on preview. I don't want to use render and replace because I never knew you could restore if to composition form. This is so helpful. Thank you very much.
can sb tell me how to segregate this dynamics link
how do i make legacy titles with inner and outer strokes in after effects
where is subscribe button in end screen?
