MOGRT Import (Premiere)

MOGRT (Motion Graphics Template) is Adobe's official format for text + graphic templates. Most DragMotion pack elements are MOGRT-based.

How it works

1. You click a MOGRT effect
2. DragMotion copies the MOGRT file into Premiere's Essential Graphics "Local" folder behind the scenes
3. It's added to the active sequence as a new clip
4. If a clip is selected, the MOGRT is placed on top of it; otherwise at the playhead position

Requirements

• Open sequence — MOGRTs apply to the timeline
• Premiere 2020 (CC 14.0+) — the MOGRT API stabilized in this version
• Write access — Premiere needs to write to its Essential Graphics folder

Mac bonus: node binary

Mac users get a small (~30 MB) node binary auto-downloaded on first MOGRT use. It's needed to parse the MOGRT format. One-time, then cached.

Speed

MOGRT import is instant (milliseconds). Large MOGRTs with complex compositions may feel slow because of Premiere's preview render — that's a Premiere quirk, not the MOGRT itself.

Other formats

Some packs use placeholder + composition imports (a dragproj format). Same UX: one click → timeline.
