Dynamically linked After Effects compositions
To delete a dynamically linked composition or clip (Adobe Production Studio only)
You can delete a linked composition from an Adobe Encore DVD project if the composition isn’t used in the project.
You can delete a linked composition from an Adobe Premiere Pro project at any time, even if the composition is used
in a project.
You can delete linked clips, which are simply references to the linked composition in the Project panel, from the
timeline of an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence or from an Adobe Encore DVD menu or timeline at any time.
❖
In Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Encore DVD, select the linked composition or clip and press the Delete key.
To edit a dynamically linked composition in After Effects (Adobe Production Studio
only)
Use the Edit Original command in Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Encore DVD to edit a linked After Effects compo-
sition. Once After Effects is open, you can make edits without having to use the Edit Original command again.
1
Select the After Effects composition in the Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Encore DVD Project panel, or choose
a linked clip in the Timeline, and choose Edit > Edit Original.
2
Make edits in After Effects, and then switch back to Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Encore DVD to view your
changes.
Note:
If you change the name of the composition in After Effects after you’ve created a dynamic link to it from Adobe
Premiere Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro doesn’t update the linked composition name in the Project panel, but retains the
dynamic link.
About offline compositions and Adobe Dynamic Link (Adobe Production Studio only)
Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe Encore DVD display dynamically linked compositions as offline in any of the
following circumstances:
•
You’ve renamed, moved, or deleted the After Effects project that contains the composition.
•
You’ve purposefully taken the composition offline.
•
You’ve opened the project that contains the composition on a system on which the Adobe Production Studio isn’t
installed.
Offline compositions appear with an Offline icon
in the Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Encore DVD Project
panel. If you’re working with an offline composition, you can relink it to the original After Effects composition. You
can also choose to relink a linked composition to a different source composition.
