Automatic Duck Pro Import AE 5.0 (Win 64-bit for CS5 or CS5.5) - Manual (Page 14)

Motion must be installed on the Mac youʼre using After Effects on, without Motion
installed QuickTime cannot open the mini Motion project files created by Pro Import AE.
Time Remapping
Time Remapping information from Final Cut Pro and Time Warps from Avid editing
systems can be translated into After Effects using Pro Import AE.
The keyframe values in the FCP time remap keyframes or the Avid time warp keyframes
are translated to the keyframe values of Time Remapping in After Effects. Avid editing
systems have some pre-built time warp effects that donʼt rely as much on keyframes as
they do on the easing of the timewarp motion curve. Pro Import AE doesnʼt deal with
these, we only can read the values of the individual time warp keyframes.
An illustration of FCP time remapping going into After Effects. As mentioned in the next
section, easing of keyframes is not translated, just keyframe values.
Keyframe Interpolation
Keyframes created in After Effects are default linear keyframes; easing is not supported.
Bezier curves in motion paths are also not supported.
Nested Sequences
A powerful feature of Final Cut Pro is its ability to nest sequences inside sequences. After
Effects shares this functionality, you can nest comps within comps. Pro Import AE
