Premiere extendscript question

I know this forum is for the SDK, but I can't find anywhere to ask, so I thought I'd try here.

I'd like to try and accomplish the following workflow with Extendscript, either in Premiere or AE:

user opens a template project which contains a logo (graphic image in Illustrator format) and an audio file.

user drags in a movie file (formats/codecs may vary)

user moves the wiper to the desired start point (usually around 2 seconds in)

user runs script which does the following:

- cuts the movie from the beginning to the frame before the wiper position

- inserts the graphic and audio file on frame 1

- fills 2 seconds of black from frame 1

- starts the movie file from the end of the black

- exports the movie to a particular standard

Before I spend a lot of time on this, I'd like to know if the above sounds possible, or am I dreaming.

Thanks!

Hi jweisbin,

this is possible to do, though I would suggest having a sequence already populated with the graphic and the audio, so you just need to add the portion of the individual input file.

Thanks for your response. Yes, I will have a template file with the graphic and audio. But should I be looking at Premiere for this, or AE?

Let's say I would know how to do this in Premiere, for AE I can't tell.

Also, in my experience doing this in Premiere works far better because users will make less mistakes.

The potential of getting a, say, "unexpected" result is IMO far higher in AE.

Trying to get into this now, but I can't get extensions to show up in the extensions view. Is there a tutorial somewhere?

The PProPanel readme details how to get PPro to load unsigned extensions.

I just upgraded from CC6 to CC7, and it looks like the PProPanel is installed by default, and is accessible via the extensions view. Thanks.

Sorry I didn't think of that earlier; CS6, shipped in 2012, did not support HTML5-based panels, only Flex-based panels.

Editing sounds like PPro's area.
