Todd_Kopriva Sep 14, 2010 1:26 PM (in response to emin3m33)Here is an outline of the various ways to move things between After Effects and Premiere Pro.
Copying and pasting between After Effects and Premiere Pro and exchanging projects between the two programs both rely on converting After Effects elements to similar Premiere Pro elements (or vice versa). This is fine for basic things like simple edits, but it doesn't work for things that don't have identical features in both applications.
If you want perfect fidelity, you want to use Dynamic Link or you want to render and export and movie from one application for import into the other.

Szalam Sep 14, 2010 1:35 PM (in response to emin3m33)It seems to me like the best plan for you would be to render out the text bits you need and place them on a second video track in Premiere.
However, if you want to have them dynamicly linked, you might look into using Dynamic Link. Also, this page covers other ways of working with After Effects and Premiere Pro.

emin3m33 Sep 14, 2010 2:17 PM (in response to emin3m33)THank you. If I render out the 3d text and export it as a video clip (avi, etc) in AE and then Import it into Premiere. How can I treat it as an effect in premeire. If I place it on top of a video track, it will block it out. How do I make it transparrent. Is it possible to do in after effects?

But, to answer your question...
Yes, you can render and export a movie with an alpha channel (i.e., transparency) so that you can composite the movie with other movies in Premiere Pro.
