Using The Free Motion Graphics Templates
The great thing about using the Essential Graphics Panel to create templates like this is that it allows you to customize certain parameters and aspects of your motion graphics without going back and forth between After Effects and Premiere.
As I mentioned above, the download includes the AE project file, so if you'd like to customize fonts, colors, and animation in a very specific way that we didn't include in the template, feel free to open the project up and change whatever you'd like.
With each of these templates, you'll find specific tools that you can use to customize the animations, colors, and text to your liking.
Before using these templates, be sure you are up to date with the most recent versions of Premiere and After Effects.
Step 1: Install the fonts
In the download folder, you'll find all the fonts you need to use the title graphics. Install these fonts before trying to use these graphics — otherwise they might not look correct.
Step 2: Install the .mogrt files into Premiere
To install the .mogrt files (the template files that Premiere uses for the Essential Graphics Panel) in Premiere, you need to open the Essential Graphics Panel.
In the bottom right-hand corner of the Essential Graphics panel, you'll see a little plus button and square (pictured above). Click on that button and install the template that you want.
At the time of this posting, there is no way to install multiple templates simultaneously; you have to install one at a time.
Step 3: Using/customizing the templates
Once you've installed your templates, drag your graphic of choice down to the timeline. Now, once you select that graphic, you'll notice some customization options in the Essential Graphics Panel. Here you can change colors, text, and various opacities, and you can turn certain elements on or off.
This will be different for each graphic, as the customization options depend on the needs and capabilities of each particular graphic.
What's truly fantastic about this workflow is that you can copy and paste the same graphic to a different place in your timeline, and once you change the copy, the original will remain unchanged. This is not the case with other workflows (dynamic link, etc.).
BONUS: Pair with RocketStock's 15 Free Lower Thirds
Recently, RocketStock released a similar pack of 15 FREE Lower Thirds. We created this pack of motion graphics templates specifically to play nice with that freebie pack. So, if you merge the two, you'll have a pretty nice library of drag-and-drop motion graphics that all have a similar visual style.
