How to apply presets in Premiere Pro?

Posted on by videolancer

Adding a regular preset to the timeline

This way, you can add any regular preset to the timeline that is not a video transition, for example, footage, motion design elements, sounds, etc.

  1. On the timeline, move the time indicator to the frame where you want to add the preset.
  2. Select a preset in the Motion Bro plugin and click ‘Apply’. The preset will be added by the time indicator.

If in Premiere Pro, after clicking the ‘Apply’ button, the selected preset is not added to the timeline, please check these solutions.

Adding a transition preset to the timeline

You can use this method to add a video transition between two scenes.

  1. On the timeline, select all clips and other layers you want to connect via a video transition.
  2. Select a preset in the Motion Bro plugin and click ‘Apply’.   

If in Premiere Pro, after clicking the ‘Apply’ button, the selected transition is not added to the timeline, please check these solutions.

Setting the duration of a transition preset

Before you add a transition preset to the timeline, you can change its duration. To do this, expand the Duration Bar and select the appropriate animation speed by clicking on one of the marks on the duration bar.

    Just an FYI: If you’re using the “Free Motion Bro Presets for Premiere Pro (Legacy)” The Duration bar is not there. When I switch to Seamless Transitions Starter Pack it appears.

    Hi, Seamless Transitions, Motion Bro Presets (Legacy) neither works.
    When working with a video with more than six audio tracks, these switching functions do not work.
    Premier 25.1 version. Motionbro plug-in installed via creative cloud.
    I got the conversion file preset from the official website here. I don’t know what the problem is. When I press apply, it creates a motion bro folder, but there’s nothing inside. What’s the problem?

    Hello, when I apply the transition from the Flex Transitions or Simple Slides packs I follow the steps by selecting the two clips, positioning the timeline in the middle, but the first frames are always repeated when transitioning in Premiere

    Hi I just purchased the preset and applied the transition preset onto 2 of my footages. But it just hangs and doesn’t loads forever. Is there a solution to this? On Premiere Pro

    Hello! when I add a transition to the timeline, for some reason the color of the picture changes at the moment of the transition, and then after the end it becomes the same. The applied transition brightens the picture, and I don’t use any color filters!

    Is there an easy way to remove the motion blur effect between the two clips in a transition such as the Simple Transform “Pan Left”?
    Second question, can you adjust where the transition hits, e.g. 50/50 between the two clips, or a bias towards one or the other?
    Thank you

      If you downloaded the free version for $0, then in it you will find a link to download the product from the MEGA service. This is a necessary measure due to Gumroad’s 250 MB restrictions on free files.

      In the next update, we will make this part of the UI more understandable.
