Using effects from other products
In addition to the dozens of effects included with Adobe Premiere Pro, many effects are
available in the form of plug-ins, which you can purchase from Adobe or third-party
vendors, or acquire from other compatible applications. For example, many Adobe After
Effects plug-ins can be copied into the Adobe Premiere Pro Plug-ins folder to use in your
video work. However, Adobe supports only plug-ins that are installed with the application.

Any effect is available to Adobe Premiere Pro when its plug-in file is present in the Plug-ins
folder, which is in the Adobe Premiere Pro folder by default. If you purchased additional
effects, purchased Adobe Premiere Pro as part of a hardware package, or removed files
from the Plug-ins folder, you may have a different set of effects than those described in
Adobe Premiere Pro Help.
You can find a complete list of third-party plug-in vendors on the Adobe Web site,
www.adobe.com.
Note: If you use effects not included with Adobe Premiere Pro and you want to open your
project on another Adobe Premiere Pro system, you must install the same effects on that
system. When you open a project with references to missing effects, Adobe Premiere Pro
removes the corresponding effects from the project.
Video effects included with Adobe Premiere Pro
Adobe Premiere Pro includes a variety of video effects designed to alter or enhance the
appearance of video images.
Note: Each video effect includes a bypass option that allows you to turn the effect on or
off as specified by the keyframes that you set.
Alpha Adjust
Use the Alpha Adjust effect in place of the Opacity effect when you need to change the
default render order of Fixed effects. Change the opacity percentage to create levels of
transparency. The following controls allow you to interpret the alpha channel in the clip:
Ignore Alpha
Ignores the alpha channel of the clip.
Invert Alpha
Reverses the transparency and opaque areas of the clip.
Alpha Glow
The Alpha Glow effect adds color around the edges of a masked alpha channel. You can
have a single color either fade out or change to a second color as it moves away from the
edge.
Glow slider
Controls how far the color extends from the alpha channel edge. Higher
settings produce larger glows (and can cause very slow processing before playback or
export).
Brightness slider
Controls the initial opacity of the glow.
