When you link to an After Effects composition, it appears in the target product’s Project panel. You can use the linked
composition as you would any other asset. When you insert a linked composition into the target product’s timeline,
a linked clip, which is simply a reference to the linked composition in the Project panel, appears in the Timeline
panel. After Effects renders the linked composition on a frame-by-frame basis during playback in the target product.
•
In Adobe Premiere Pro, you can preview the linked composition in the Source Monitor, set In and Out points, add
it to a sequence, and use any of the Adobe Premiere Pro tools to edit it. When you add a linked composition that
contains both footage and audio layers to a sequence, Adobe Premiere Pro inserts linked video and audio clips in
the timeline. (You can unlink these to edit them separately; search for “To unlink video and audio” in Adobe
Premiere Pro Help.)
•
In Adobe Encore DVD, you can use the linked composition to create a motion menu or insert it into a timeline,
and use any of the Adobe Encore DVD tools to edit it. When you add a linked composition that contains both
video and audio layers to an Adobe Encore DVD timeline, Adobe Encore DVD inserts separate video and audio
clips in the timeline.
Other ways to share content among Production Studio applications include copying and pasting between After
Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro, exporting After Effects projects to Adobe Premiere Pro, using the Capture In Adobe
Premiere Pro command in After Effects, creating After Effects compositions from Adobe Encore DVD menus, or
importing Adobe Premiere Pro projects into After Effects. For more information, see the relevant product’s Help.
For a tutorial on Adobe Dynamic Link, go to Resource Center on the Adobe website.
Adobe periodically provides updates to software and Help. To check for updates, click the Preferences button
in
Adobe Help Center, and then click Check For Updates. Follow the on-screen instructions.
Saving and Adobe Dynamic Link (Adobe Production Studio only)
You must save your After Effects project at least once before you can create a dynamic link from Adobe Premiere Pro
or Adobe Encore DVD to a composition within it. However, you don’t have to subsequently save changes to an After
Effects project to see changes to a linked composition in Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Encore DVD.
If you use the Save As command to copy an After Effects project that contains compositions referenced by Adobe
Dynamic Link, Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Encore DVD uses the original composition—not the new copy—as
its source for the linked composition. You can relink a composition to the new copy at any time (see “To relink a
dynamically linked composition (Adobe Production Studio only)” on page 162).
Managing performance and Adobe Dynamic Link (Adobe Production Studio only)
Because a linked composition may reference a complex source composition, actions you perform on a linked compo-
sition may require additional processing time as After Effects applies the actions and makes the final data available
to Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Encore DVD. In some cases, the additional processing time may delay preview or
playback.
If you’re working with complex source compositions and experiencing playback delays, you can take the compo-
sition offline or disable a linked clip to temporarily stop referencing a dynamically linked composition (see “To take
a dynamically linked composition offline (Adobe Production Studio only)” on page 162), or render the composition
and replace the dynamically linked composition with the rendered file. If you commonly work with complex source
compositions, try adding RAM or using a faster processor.
