Motion Graphics templates are templates created by a Motion Graphics artist in Premiere Pro or After Effects. You can use these templates to create professional-looking titles, transitions, and other video elements in just a few steps.

If you would like to use Motion Graphics templates stored on your computer or in Creative Cloud Files, you need to use Premiere Pro to import them into a Creative Cloud Library, and then open that library within Premiere Rush to add the Motion Graphics template to a project.

When you install a Motion Graphics template, the template gets copied to the Local Templates folder in your installation of Premiere Rush.
