*******Very Important Render Info*******

Make sure when you render in 3D Max that you use Microsoft Video 1 as your compression type. If you render as MJPEG you will find that Premiere Pro does not play the AVI file.

Also the size of your render should be 800x600. You can choose a larger size, but beware it will take longer to render.
