Question

Keyframes on controls will be ignored in Premiere Pro?

Can someone explain what this means?

 

This property is keyframed.

Keyframes on controls will be ignored in Premiere Pro when the composition is exported as a Motion Graphic template.

 

When I go to export a MOGRT from AE v17.0.2, I get that message. When I import the .mogrt into Premiere Pro v14.0.1, the rectangle doesn't animate.

 

To try and troubleshoot, I created a simple animation in AE with a rectangle using the rectangle tool. On frame 1, I set a keyframe for Scale and set the X axis to 0%, then on frame 10, I set a keyframe and changed the X axis scale to 100%. I then pulled the Scale property up into the essential graphics panel, then exported the MOGRT. Simple.

Howeveer, as I said, once imported into Premiere it doesn't animate, it's already at 100%, as if it didn't recognize the 1st keyframe that was set to 0%.

Any thoughts?

(BTW: I'm pretty much a beginner to AE.)

 

Thanks

 

Mark

    I can't believe the answer to this question is so complicated (and hard to find elsewhere). When creating your MOGRT, just don't include the properties that have keyframes. Your MOGRT is grabbing said animations by referencing the comp name at the very top of Essential Graphics, and everything you're adding below it are values you're telling Premiere to make editable. If you don't want your keyframes edited, just the text or color of your MOGRT, then don't include them.

    I think the problem is when you want both. When you want to keyframe the same properties that you also want editable in Premiere.

    Hey.

     

    It means that once you make a property controllable in Premiere Pro the keyframes you've set in After Effects will be ignored.

     

    It does make sense if you think about it – adjusting the values in Premiere would mess up the keyframes from After Effects. That's why the keyframes are being ignored, so you can adjust it in Premiere.

     

    Just keep your animated parts and the parts you want to control in Premiere seperate to avoid issues 🙂

      But what if that's exactly what your goal is?

      I'm looking to create an animated MOGRT pie chart with value controls so that a user in Premiere can adjust the values with a slider. This way they can reuse it every time they create a video without needing me to update the data.

       

      Are you saying this is impossible OR are you saying you have to use expressions to somehow link the value controls to another keyframed layer?

       

      Thank you!
