Thanks!   So to follow up, you've mentioned a few codecs there. Which one should I use for very high-quality (or even better, lossless compressed) video with alpha, that's the most universally usable (without having to download anything) for people who have Premiere Pro installed on both Windows and Mac? For that best option, can you provide any more details or screenshots of the settings so I can create my own new preset? (That is, is it for a Quicktime MOV container, etc.?)   Thanks again. ...

Thanks for your reply. It doesn't sound like any of those options will work for my situation. With a variety of constantly changing clients, I can't be asking them to install software simply in order to use my rendered graphics. That's just crazy.   So there's nothing that will work for me then? I'm stuck with TIFF sequences which, by default, always seem to import into premiere at the wrong frame rate? I find this so hard to believe. ... View more

!! If this format is no longer supported, then why on earth is it the default "lossless" format for rendering from After Effects (Windows)??!! Shouldn't we expect the default lossless format from After Effects be importable by Premiere Pro? Do you have any idea how much rendering I have just done in this format? Imported fine and edited with on a PC and now have to switch to mac!! I can't even convert the files now I'm on a mac, because Media Encoder doesn't read them. This is outrageous! ... View more

Without jumping through hoops to ensure quality control, encoding the processed video from Premiere to import into After Effects for another round of processing is NOT visually lossless. You are mistaken. Furthermore, what you are suggesting would have easily taken me 10x longer than what I ended up doing. You're suggesting that for every single time I punched in on a shot (probably once every 2 seconds or so over the course of a 4.5 minute music video = 100 different shots), I send the individual shot over to AE (along with the entire bassline soundtrack for each shot to maintain sync) to apply my beat reactor. Not only that, but then I export nearly the entire video (minus those 100 shots) to a lossless format, import that into AE, apply the same beat reactor, then export it from After Effects to reimport it in Premiere so that I can recombine it with the 100 other shots I sent to AE individually. Do you have any idea how long that would take? What I did was select basically the entire music video (except for a couple of video tracks) sent it to AE, applied a beat reactor (by parenting all layers to an animated null, I ensured that even previously transformed shots maintained their best possible quality), came back to Premiere and exported the whole thing. The render took all of 3 hours on my machine. I didn't experience any stability issues. Aside from building the beat reactor effect, my process involved about 6 clicks of my mouse, compared to the 600 that your method would involve. ... View more

https://forums.adobe.com/people/Rick+Gerard  wrote I think if you render your PPro project and add the noise reduction (which PPro does very well by the way even using an adjustment layer) then put the rendered visually lossless movie in AE and added your beat reactor (visualizer) you would save a bunch of render time and the project would be way more stable. Also, for effect, I often "punched in" during a shot. That is, I cut to the same shot just scaled up a bit. If I then export that (even to a lossless format) Premiere interpolates the pixels of the scaled up shots. Importing that into After Effect and applying a beat reactor would transform the previously baked in transformation. It would interpolate new pixels from the pixels that had previously been interpolated once before, significantly reducing the image quality. If you're concerned about the quality of your end product, it's always best to process your footage the least number of times possible. Even if you're using lossless formats, you're still degrading your image. Frankly, I'm shocked that you are suggesting such a workflow to people who might not know any better. ... View more

What you're suggesting is a destructive workflow. While certain compression formats may be "lossless", that doesn't mean such exports from Premiere retain all the data of the original raw. For example, I do my colour grading in Premiere with Lumetri. If I then export that, even using a "lossless" format, I will have still lost the original colour depth of my raw footage. When I then bring that footage in to After Effects, there won't be as much information available for After Effects to work with. Taking my edited sequence and replacing it with an After Effects composition is a non-destructive workflow that keeps the all the information from the raw footage, and only processes it once (since my transform settings and Lumetri effects are preserved in the After Effects comp). ...

I'm mainly doing noise reduction and a beat reactor across the entire music video. I haven't had any problems with this workflow aside from the question above (which Roei provided a great answer for), but I'd love to hear your suggestion on how to do this more efficiently. ... View more

If that's not considered a bug, it should be. What I'm doing is the standard method of professional editing. Also, I'm on a Mac.
