Why we like it

AEVIEWER 2 Pro earns its place in the aescripts library as a media browser spanning both After Effects and Premiere Pro, layering authoring tools for template authors on top of one-click preview and import.

What is AEVIEWER 2 Pro?

AEVIEWER 2 Pro from MotionLand is a media browser for After Effects and Premiere Pro. It lets you preview, apply, and import projects and media files in one click, and the Pro edition brings Premiere Pro support alongside After Effects.

The Pro edition also adds authoring tools for template authors, more formats and import options, support for trial and encrypted packs, and responsive MOGRTs. Import options cover EXR sequences and SVG files, drag-and-drop importing, and FFX presets with animated previews for default After Effects presets; the browser can detect an FFX preset type and create a matching layer.

Version 2.2.3 improved search speed and behaviour and fixed a crash on files with quotes in their names, previews for AEP files in List mode, and saving of sound settings. It runs across After Effects and Premiere Pro versions 2021 through 2026. A demo video is available.
