1.Export your sequence from Premiere Pro or After Effects as an image sequence in a format that supports lossless quality, such as PNG or TIFF. To do this, go to the Export settings and choose the image sequence option.

2.Once you have your image sequence exported, you can use a third-party software or online tool to convert the image sequence to WebP format. There are various free and paid tools available for this purpose. One popular option is the "FFmpeg" command-line tool.

3.If you decide to use FFmpeg, you can install it on your computer and then use the following command in the terminal or command prompt to convert the image sequence to WebP:


ffmpeg -i input.%04d.png -vf "setpts=PTS-STARTPTS" output.%04d.webp

Replace "input.%04d.png" with the filename pattern of your input image sequence, and "output.%04d.webp" with the desired output filename pattern.

4.Once the conversion is complete, you will have your WebP image sequence that you can use as needed.

But what if your company does not allow third party apps or online tools? Is there any other workaround?

This page on Adobe talks about WebP

And looks like the current advice is to use a trusted third-party app or plugin.  If your company refuses to allow these, then they will need to change their output requirements to allow something PP or AE can export.
