How to Use This Free Premiere Pro Template

There is no way to sugar coat this. Given the intensive effects applied to the animation, background, and rough text, depending on your setting this can take a few minutes to render. That’s just the cost of bringing heavy After Effects tools and 3D lights into Premiere Pro. That said, the results are fantastic and it would take just as long to export if a professional motion designer made these for you.
