I was looking at some video templates out there and it seems a lot are provided in the form of Adobe After Effects files. Is there a way to import these into PowerDirector and use them?

Hi CaptainTime -

Barry's right - you can't import Ae templates or projects.

I'm guessing your'e not an Ae user or you probably wouldn't be asking the question. If you were, you could render the template/project in Ae then import that rendered file into PDR.

Templates and projects would typically contain media - videos, graphics etc - that can be imported into PDR (without the effects applied in Ae of course).

Cheers - Tony

Not an Ae user so likely won't even be able to open the Ae template files to import the graphics. So I guess these kind of templates are useless for me.

Any suggestions as to where I can find video templates that will work with PowerDirector?
