After Effects to Premiere: Building Reusable Brand MOGRT Title Packs
Rig responsive After Effects Essential Graphics templates using sourceRectAtTime() auto-sizing boxes and clean Premiere Pro controls for bilingual EN/FA editing teams.
Editors lose hours rebuilding lower-thirds, chapter cards, and price callouts by hand whenever a guest has a longer name or a campaign switches between Left-to-Right English and Right-to-Left Persian. In this course, we rig responsive shape layers in After Effects with sourceRectAtTime() expressions, expose intuitive Essential Graphics sliders and Protected Regions, and package lightweight .mogrt libraries ready for any Premiere Pro workstation.

Course Learning Pillars
Core Capabilities Developed in This Course
Every learner starts from a different background. These are the core capabilities this course develops, paced to your goals across the sessions we plan together.
Clean Bilingual LTR / RTL Anchor Rigging
Configure anchor points and alignment switches so graphics wipe open cleanly from the left for English titles and from the right for Persian titles inside one template.
Essential Graphics Sliders & Protected Regions
Expose only practical controls (Text, Font Override, Theme Dropdown, Position, Scale) and lock intro/outro keyframes so stretching clip duration never distorts easing.
Lightweight Five-Asset .mogrt Brand Library
Export a cohesive, plugin-free bundle (Speaker Lower-Third, Chapter Title, Stat/Price Callout, Quote Card, End-Screen CTA) that scrubs smoothly on Premiere timelines.
Course Syllabus
Core Concepts & Topics Covered
Below are the main concepts and topics covered in this course. In your Free Online Intro Session, we align the exact depth and number of sessions to your experience and goals.
Topic 01
Modular Brand Motion Design & Bilingual Anchor Math
Designing timeless editorial lower-thirds and callout layouts in After Effects using native shape and text layers that stay crisp at both 16:9 and 9:16 aspect ratios.
- Translating brand guidelines (palette, Doran/Anjoman/Shabnam & Montserrat fonts, corner radii) into clean shape hierarchies
- Locking paragraph justification and layer anchor points so multi-line text grows predictably without drifting
- Building smooth 60fps matte reveals and subtle accent-line wipes with Bezier velocity curves
Topic 02
Responsive Auto-Sizing Expressions With sourceRectAtTime()
Understanding every line of responsive box math instead of copy-pasting fragile code, handling descenders (`پ`, `چ`, `ی`, `g`, `y`) and multi-line layouts cleanly.
- Reading sourceRectAtTime(time, false) width, height, top, and left values with custom X/Y padding sliders
- Stabilizing box height so typing letters with deep descenders (`ی`, `ق`, `g`, `p`) never makes the pill jump vertically
- Linking secondary subtitle pills and pointer lines dynamically to the main headline container's edge
Topic 03
Essential Graphics Panel Rigging & Protected Time Regions
Turning raw After Effects compositions into foolproof editor interfaces with theme selectors, embedded brand logos, and elastic timeline duration.
- Wiring Dropdown Menu Controls so editors switch Dark, Light, or Brand Accent themes in one click
- Enabling safe font family, size, and faux-style overrides plus toggle switches for optional icons or logos
- Setting Intro and Outro Protected Regions on the timeline so stretching a 4s title to 12s preserves exact entry/exit speed
Topic 04
Performance Optimization, .mogrt Packaging & Team Deployment
Testing playback responsiveness inside Premiere Pro, organizing local or Creative Cloud shared libraries, and structuring custom motion-kit deliverables for clients.
- Replacing heavy Gaussian/glow effects and per-frame expression loops that stall Premiere timeline playback
- Exporting clean thumbnail-previewed .mogrt files into Local Templates Folders and shared CC Libraries
- Overview of building equivalent reusable Fusion `.setting` title macros for DaVinci Resolve workflows
Course Reference Overview
Responsive Brand MOGRT Engineering Standards
Core practical benchmarks and standards covered as part of this course's curriculum.
| Template Layer | Fragile Static Habit | Responsive Rigging Method | Editor Experience |
|---|---|---|---|
| Container Sizing | Text overflows the box or swims inside huge empty space | sourceRectAtTime() width/height with locked descender baseline | Type any EN or FA phrase and the box fits immediately |
| Language Direction | Right-to-Left Persian text awkwardly expanding from the left | Rigged LTR/RTL alignment toggle shifting anchor and wipe origin | One master file serves bilingual client channels cleanly |
| Timeline Stretching | Stretching clip duration makes entry animation sluggish | Protected Intro and Outro regions isolating keyframe velocity | Crisp animation speed whether held briefly or across a long quote |
| Playback & Dependencies | Missing logo files and red render bars requiring After Effects | Native AE vector layers with embedded assets and lean expressions | Smooth Premiere scrubbing even on editors' machines without AE |

Program FAQ
Common Questions
Once my `.mogrt` title pack is exported, does every editor using it in Premiere Pro need After Effects installed?
No. When templates are built using native After Effects text, shape layers, and expressions without third-party plugins, the exported `.mogrt` file is self-contained and runs directly inside Premiere Pro on any Mac or Windows workstation.
How does the Free Online Intro Session work, and how many sessions will I need?
Every course begins with a Free Online Introductory Session where we review the core syllabus together, evaluate your current background and goals, and map out how many sessions you actually need and whether continuing Online ($69 CAD/hr) or In-Person ($99 CAD/hr) suits you best. Session count is never a rigid one-size-fits-all number; it adapts to your own level and pace.
Do I have to commit to a multi-session package upfront?
Never. There is zero upfront package commitment: once your free online intro session maps out your path, any coaching sessions you choose ($69 CAD/hr online or $99 CAD/hr in-person) are scheduled flexibly session-by-session at your own pace.
Are courses taught in English, Persian (Farsi), or bilingual?
Your choice: every session with Iman Adlkhah can be conducted 100% in English, 100% in Persian (Farsi), or naturally bilingual with industry terminology.
