Is it possible to create a transition in After Effects and then use it in Premiere Pro and just exchange the clips (both that I'm making the transition in between) in Premiere?

I can't really find any tutorials online on this.

Basically - you are able to create text effects in After Effects and then change the text in Premiere Pro when you import the AE file. Is something like that possible, but with transitions? I'd like to make a transition effect (a "projector" like - scrolling from one clip to another) and then import it into Premiere Pro and just change the clips every time when I want to use this transition.

Is something like that possible?

Thanks a lot!

No. Your AE project must contain the footage used in the transition not just the effects.

Depends on the kind of transition you're making. If you are just doing a wipe of some kind (basically, anything you could do with a track matte), you could render out the black and white matte and use that in Premiere Pro.


But, if your transition involves moving any part of the video layers or changing their appearance in any way other than alpha, no.
