Hi Kevin, I'm also looking for an OpenEXR plugin that will work with Premiere Pro, but unfortunately, the link you posted above (4 years ago) is broken. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi XilburQost,

Thanks for the note. Have you tried the fnord plug-in? https://www.fnordware.com/ProEXR/ Let us know if it works out for you.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for the response. I tried your suggested link. Unfortunately, even with the addon installed Premiere still imports my OpenEXR image sequence as black frames. Meanwhile, I installed an addon called "Exr-IO" which allows Photoshop to read these sequence files, and it does an excellent job, so I'm reasonably confident that the OpenEXR files themselves are fine. Maybe there's a setting within Premiere I need to apply once the files are imported? Thanks again. Premiere Pro 22.1.2, Windows 11

Click import, select only the first picture, go to options and select import as a sequence. Once in Premiere you can right click on it and select modify: interpret footage to make adjustments.

Hope this works!

The ProEXR plug-in for Premiere has shipped with the program since CC 2015. You can simply import/export EXR files like any other file sequence.

Sounds like your sequence might have some custom channels. You can access those in Premiere by going to the footage's Source Settings and picking the channels you want to use for RGBA.
