Tutorial from Frame.io, 2024
WHAT THEY DID
Jarle Leirpoll’s guide says to keep controls few (one control can drive several elements), group them in the order people will use them, use sliders with limited ranges, use Adobe Fonts so fonts install themselves, make layers resolution-independent, protect in and out animations, add warnings for bad input, and for clients restrict colors and fonts to the brand with dropdowns.
HOW IT WENT
No results are reported; it’s a technical guide.
WORTH KNOWING
Templates can’t interact with other layers, synced audio can drift when duration changes, and bad text input fails silently in Premiere Pro. Share through a library rather than files so people don’t keep old versions.
