After Effects

Hola, recién instalé la versión 25 para mi PC y particularmente es muy lenta. Hasta ayer todo estaba funcionando bien, pero con esta nueva actualización la importación de archivos (jpg, png 1920x1080) puede tardar hasta 5 minutos o simplemente no los importa y "crashea".  Ya desinstalé y volví a instalar y sigue ocurriendo lo mismo. También he limpiado la caché y no ha funcionado. 

I'm getting the following error in a Adobe Team Project, that works in Premiere, but shows After Effects comps as unlinked(?) even though the Comps were built in a session spawnwed from the Premiere Team Project. After Effects AlertLast log message was: <122615><EACL.ProductionSyncStatusIndicator><5> Session sync state is bad, status icon will fall back to Local, sessionID:"r-7612156e-740f-c52e-e705-693b1fee5db2", syncState:"NoStateFromLocalHub" The Team Project will not load in After Effects.   Apple Studio M2 Max64GbSequoia 15.3 Martin P

(AE v24.6.4)Hi. I'm trying to see if I can use nulls created from a shape path (illustrator design) in my work flow. It seems after using the script and getting nulls for all the points in the path I can no longer go back to edit the path itself. Am I doing something wrong here? Is there a workaround? I'm making a noodle type arm for a character and I just want to have a controller/null for the endpoint/wrist of the path so that I can parent it to the hand shape. As it is right now the entire shape of the path gets locked as soon as I use the null-script. Moving the null works, rotating the null have no effect. I kinda want to be able to set keyframes for the null motion (of the hand and the end of the path) and then keyframe an edited version of the path to get the correct curvature of the path. Using pentool after running the scrip just wants to create a whole new shape...there are no point handles to move around to change the path anymore. Am I stuck or is there a way out.

Please put a UI Brightness slider back!  The UI is too dark!!  We have to stare at a screen all day... eyes get tired!  UI is very important.  Too much contrast now!

After updating to version 25.2, I noticed that JSON support has been completely removed. Now, running scripts that use JSON syntax results in a 'JSON is undefined' error. This issue was not mentioned in the update list<title edited by moderator>

Hi, I was trying to export my video in transparent mode, have tried many ways,but it still turned out showing background colour. I did turn on the transparent mode in the saber render setting, video output chanel in rgb and alpha mode,no solid colour, so when i preview the video is in transparent mode, but when i export it , it showed my composition background colour. 

Issue – The standard Mocha AE shortcuts don't work anymore and CMD+A immediately closes Mocha AE without saving. Even switching the shortcuts presets and reinstalling didn't help.Adobe After Effects version number – 25.1.0 (Build 68)Operating system – macOS Sequoia 15.1.1Steps to reproduce – Try to use Mocha shortcuts, like ‘X’ to move the viewer, ‘Q / W / E’ to move / rotate / scale masks, or ‘CMD+A’ to select all points in a mask.Expected result – When hitting ‘CMD+A’ all points in the current mask should be selected.Actual result –  Mocha AE closed without saving and without producing an error message.

I've watched a lot of tutorials on this but I still don't know how to do this. I'm trying to put text behind Tanjiro but idk what the heck is going on.

Bonjour je suis nouveau sur l'app et je ne comprends comment je peux travailler en plein écran sur mac avec AE.J'ai fouillé les paramètres mais aucunes options trouvées.(sur le screenshot je suis en plein écran)Merci d'avance !

I was working on a project when suddenly the app became unresponsive. It crashed and closed. After that It crashes every time i try to open the app, with the message "After effects error: crash in progress". ill attach the full pop-up below. I've tried everything i could thing off to fix it... from restarting adobe, my pc to uninstalling after effects and installing it again. nothing seems to help i can't get the app to start. Does anyone have an similiar problem or an solution? Would be appriciated immensly.

I updated all video apps (Ae, Pr, Me) to 25.2.I'm using a lot of Roto Brush in my current project and, on the plus side, it's SO MUCH FASTER. Awesome!On the minus... these apps are locking up the computer constantly upon "saving a copy" of the project. It is becoming ridiculous. I frequently save the project and also save a copy to other drives, of course. This is regular every day workflow. Now, I am getting "Not responding" from the apps on every other save attempt.I have done all the things, multiple times, for both Pr and Ae:- Reset preferences- Clear/clean cache and database- Create new project, import old one- Reboot computerI'm also getting a dialog upon reopening After Effects that says the Roto brush effect is creating an error, and do I want to disable it one time or no? Ironically, Roto brush is working for me much better and faster than before. But apparently whatever the error is that it's causing has to do with saving, not necessarily the roto part. I'm using Windows

when morphing, the vertex of the square do not move to the vertex of the circle. I did everything according to the instructions, turned the circle over so that the vertex were located at the vertex of the square, copied the path of the circle and pasted it into the square, but it does not move to those vertices.

Hi, I have followed the tutorial for Mocha without issue, everything works.When I try with my own footage it tracks fine, I quit out to AE and apply the tracking data to the layer Iwant to corner pin, the FIRST FRAME warps to the correct place and size, but no additional data is pasted on the timeline.My footage is pulled from Premiere using "Replace with After Effects composition" (Dynamic Link) and as such is zoomed in and not full screen as is required by Mocha, so I alwasy pre-compose to both the source (tracked footage) and the target are the same dimentions.Still doesnt work.However,  If I grab the raw footage internally in After effects, and make new comps, the tracking and the corner pinnign works. Why cant I use ths technique? because the part or the footage I want to track and the target are NOT from the start of the clip, and the correct places are editted in Premier. The only solutionI can think f is to render our these clips sperately in Prem and import them and

The commands to Reveal Properties with Kyframes/Animation/Modified do not work at all in 25.2. Not from the menu, not via keyboard shortcut. Keyframes are present. Resetting AE prefs did not fix the issue. AE25.2 on Sequoia 15.4, Apple Silicon MBP 14" 2021.

I want to cteate a roto of only 3 swcond clip which is cut from the original clip. Now wat happens is that to rotto I have to go out in individual video layer and totto the whole video and everytime I make changes it loads and takes a lot of memory.What I want to do is simply only roto that 3 particular seconds. How can I achieve. Thanks.

Performance of AE 2024 so far seems pretty awful, for example; on a fresh install, clean startup, I have just imported a single 1080p MP4 (h.264), made a single cut to the clip, and hit export.. during the render memory usage hit 97%. Now AE is idle and is the only application I have running, it still has 54GB sat in memory! It also appears to be constantly using 8% CPU even though I'm just sat in the render queue looking at a completed job. CPU: 7950XGPU: 4090 (latest studio drivers)RAM: 64GB DDR5 6000 CL30CACHE SSD: SN850X 4TBWindows 11 (latest updates)AE V 24.1.0

The thing that I use to move to a certain time in your project is really laggy, my other old old computer works just fine. And the first project I made it worked perfectly fine. But even if I move one frame a second it still skips frames and is laggy.   Title edited by Mod.

Hi all,I am using AE CC and I find this error on start:  AE error: CT generic: not ascii(83 :: 2)I close the alert and AE works correctly, but I want to know what is going on. I am using AE CC 12.1.0.168 on a Windows 7 SP1.Thanks

Is there a way to set "Commit changes to Text" using Escape as a keyboard shortcut? I tried mapping it in the keyboards shortcuts panel, but everytime I try and input ESC it just exits the window.  I'm just getting into AE and have heavily used Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign for years where pressing ESC quickly exits the text box and retains any edits. I come to find that I input text in AE and not only does it not commit any changes, but completely deletes the text box all together! This inconsistency after years of muscle memory has caused quite a few headaches when using text in AE. I've seen some scripting solutions for Windows users, but are there any solutions for those of us on a Mac?

HiA strange and bizarre issue. Text tool doesn't show any text after i type!!! Nothing.

Hello everyone, I've designed some LED video panels for a client in After Effects, but their supplier specifications ask for a .MOV video with DVX codec. I honestly haven't heard of DivX in 15-20 years and thought the format was dead... A quick search led me to the official www.divx.com website, that provides a free app to convert video files into DVX format. The installer for the app however is not signed and I don't feel comfortable bypassing Mac OS security (also on Trustpilot it's mentioned that the Windows installer too gets flagged as malware). All in all the website is pretty sketchy. I found another alternative in https://resolume.com which provide a free converter, and while they look like a serious and professional developer, the converter is bundled with their other applications that I'd rather not install on my work machine. Does anyone know of a free and safe way to encode or convert into DVX in 2025? Thank you so much!

Bonjour, Quand je travaille sur des formes Bézier, je manipule les tangentes associées à chaque point pour orienter mes courbes. Quand je clique préalablement sur MAJ, mes tangentes se calent soit à la verticale, soit à l'horizontale.Enfin... pas tout à fait. A bien y regarder, les tangentes se calent bien, mais sur une faible pente, voire tournent sur elles-mêmes selon qu'on se rapproche ou qu'on s'éloigne de l'origine. J'ai tenté sur une forme parfaitement symétrique, un simple cercle converti en forme Bézier, rien à faire. Est-ce normal? Quel est la bonne méthode pour obtenir une orientation droite? En vous remerciant.

So when I add the option to move the Y Pos of a text layer, moving the slider a few pixels makes it go completely off screen, since the ends are -32768 and 32768, whereas my sequence/timeline is 1920x1080. So how can I add a position slider, without such a crazy range, so that the slider moves in a more intuitive way?
