Does anyone have any experience in adding a scene and the credit crawl using Premier CC on something edited on Avid? Can that be done? Any help will be greatly appreciated and would make life a lot easier on a current (almost finished )project.

Hi Mike, I think you can add a credit crawl on both programmes (Premiere Pro and Avid). I'm not sure there is a clean way of getting your Avid project into Premiere Pro other than exporting an EDL. There maybe some apps that can help you cross over maybe. Though if it were me I would stay in Avid if all you want to do is add a credit crawl. You can do it using the Marquee Tool I think.
Thanks Arthur. I think I'll have to bite the bullet and the pay the ransom.

I've done this before - the credit crawl on Premiere is easier to use than on avid. So, yes - Export the live action that you want to put the crawling title over (to a high quality file type that Prem will understand), do the crawl work in Prem then export it back into the Avid - Job done!
Arthur, I'm not sure if Premiere will input an EDL, well at least the very old version I have does not.
Thanks Roger!
