Has anyone found a solution for how to import a Procreate mp4 with transparent background into Premiere, or even After Effects?
As far as I know MP4 doesnt support alpha transparent footage.
Just in case someone else looks for the answer, I found something on YouTube. Apparently the file has to be exported as an animated HEVC file, a new option in Procreate, then turn off the background.

Had to look that up to figure out what it is ... not being a Mac person.
So ... what's the file like? MediaInfo is something normally used to get a look 'into' a file, to see what the full data on file contents are.
And a transparent background ... is that a full alpha channel?

I have the same problem but the HEVC file doesn't work. It has a dark grey background after exporting. I also tryed animated png but it imports to premiere as just an image. Any ideas on how to fix that?

You can try the option to uncheck "Composite in linear color" from the Sequence menu. Might help.
