# ImagineArt for Premiere Pro

> Generate images and video, upscale and clean up shots, and conform Film Studio projects into editable Premiere timelines, without leaving the edit.

The ImagineArt panel docks inside Premiere Pro so you can generate, upscale, and edit footage right where you're cutting — no browser tab, no export, no round trip. It also rebuilds an exported Film Studio project as an editable Premiere sequence, scenes mapped to clips with transitions already applied.

## Install

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="macOS">
    <Steps>
      <Step title="Download the installer">
        Download `ImagineArt-Premiere.pkg` from the [Premiere Pro plugin page](https://imagine.art/plugins).
      </Step>

      <Step title="Run the installer">
        Double-click the `.pkg` and follow the prompts. Quit Premiere first if it's open.

        <Note>
          If macOS says it "could not verify" the developer: click **Done**, open **System Settings → Privacy & Security**, scroll to the Security section, and click **Open Anyway** next to `ImagineArt-Premiere.pkg`. Run the installer again and choose **Open** — you only do this once.
        </Note>
      </Step>

      <Step title="Open the panel">
        In Premiere, go to **Window → Extensions → ImagineArt Film Studio**. Dock the panel and sign in once.
      </Step>
    </Steps>
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Windows">
    <Steps>
      <Step title="Install the .zxp (recommended)">
        Get a free ZXP installer — [ZXPInstaller](https://zxpinstaller.com) or Anastasiy's Extension Manager — then drag `ImagineArt-Premiere.zxp` onto it (or **File → Install**). Quit Premiere first.
      </Step>

      <Step title="Or use the one-click installer">
        A one-click `.exe` installer is also available from the plugin page. It isn't code-signed yet, so Windows shows a SmartScreen warning — click **More info → Run anyway** to continue. The `.zxp` route skips this screen, which is why it's the default.
      </Step>

      <Step title="Open the panel">
        Reopen Premiere and go to **Window → Extensions → ImagineArt Film Studio**. Dock the panel and sign in once.
      </Step>
    </Steps>
  </Tab>

## How the panel works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Pick a tool">
    Open the panel and choose what to make — image, video, upscale, remove background, or a full Film Studio export.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Describe your shot">
    Type a prompt, then set the model, aspect ratio, resolution, and duration. The panel shows the credit cost before you run anything.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Hit Create">
    The panel generates right where you're docked — no browser tab, no export, no round trip.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Build your timeline from Film Studio">
    Export a project from Film Studio on the web and the panel rebuilds it as an editable Premiere sequence, scenes mapped to clips with transitions applied.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Refine without leaving Premiere">
    Animate a still, upscale a clip, or clean a plate — every action targets the selection you already have open.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Do I need Adobe Creative Cloud to install it?">
    No — nothing comes from the Marketplace. On macOS you download the `.pkg` and run it; on Windows you install the small `.zxp` with a free ZXP installer. Either way, open the panel in Premiere afterward.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The installer ran but the panel isn't in Premiere.">
    Quit Premiere completely and reopen it — the extension is only picked up on launch. Then check **Window → Extensions → ImagineArt Film Studio**. If it's still missing, run the installer again with Premiere closed.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The browser sign-in finished but the panel didn't connect.">
    Return to Premiere and give it a moment — the panel picks up the session automatically. If it still doesn't connect, copy the code shown after sign-in and paste it into the panel; it's accepted as a manual fallback.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I clicked Export to Premiere but nothing built.">
    Make sure you're signed in inside the panel, then click **Export to Premiere** again in Film Studio. You can always build a project manually: open Film Studio Export in the panel and browse workspace → folder → project.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Some clips are listed as missing after a build.">
    Each missing shot is named explicitly in the build summary. Open Premiere's Media Browser and relink them — everything else is already placed at the right position on the timeline.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Do generations cost credits?">
    Generation, upscaling, and background removal use the same ImagineArt credits as the web app, and the panel shows the estimated cost next to each model and tool before you run anything. Deductions happen on your account exactly as they would on imagine.art.
