After Effects

Tengo un timeline con 10 capas de vídeo, de las cuales hay varias solapadas. Imaginemos que 1 es el vídeo más arriba y 10 el vídeo más abajo. El problema viene cuando cambio por ejemplo la escala de 10, con o sin keyframes, se modifica también la escala del vídeo 1, a pesar de tener su escala sin tocar. Fallo catastrófico aún sin arreglo...

Issue:If the Render Queue window or Project Window contains too many comps, then after you scroll past a certain point then the GUI visuals will freeze or turn black. Steps to reproduce:Add 1000 comps in the render queue and then try scrolling to the bottom of the Render Queue window. After you scroll past a certain point then the GUI visuals will freeze or turn black. Create 2000 comps within a single folder of the Project window and then try scrolling to the bottom of the Project window. After you scroll past a certain point then the GUI visuals will freeze or turn black. Note:The exact amount of comps varies to trigger the bug (perhaps by scene or computer). Screen capture of the bug in action: Adobe After Effects version - 26.0.0 (Build 67)Operating system - Both MacOS 15.7.4 and Windows 11 Does it affect all projects or only some projects? All projectsDoes it affect new projects? YesWhen did the problem begin? It's been an ongoing issue for many years.

How can I adjust the Fade Up Words preset to match the speed of words spoken if the speed is inconsistent for every word? That means some words may have appeared when they shouldn’t because they weren’t spoken yet and some words may haven’t appeared when they should.

In this animation text side changes. How to do similar animation while retaining the correct text side? video is attached.  Text was created in Ai file then imported to Ae. 

so i just downloaded after effects and im trying to add a preset but when i go to animation it wont let me click on “apply animation preset”

I’ve read numerous reports online, and many recommend disabling the disk cache. I’ve disabled the cache, but when I use the Warp Stabilizer it takes ages to complete the analysis and the GPU spikes to maximum usage. I receive countless “out of memory” messages (128 GB of RAM...), a

the goal : Explode an image into custom shaped particles. Current method - Particle playground, using layer map for the custom particle shape, using the grid to duplicate that particle. grid is 10x10 in the first frame and 0x0 afterwords. Problem : I can't find a way to have those particles take the color of the image I want to explode. I can only them essentially mask the image, but then then particles are just changing colours based on their position over the image. I want them to keep the color of the image while they explode. It seems I can't use layer exploder with Layer map.

About 5 mins after i open after effects it crashes showing this error (0 :: 42)i unistalled and reinstalled AE, deleted pluggins.What else can i try to resolve it

I work for a company with specific brand elements to use. These has been in my library for years at this point, added as vectors. I was always able to drag them into AE and create shapes out of them using the “create shapes from vector layer” option. For a month now, whenever I do try to do that, all of the shapes turn into a square - not leaving any traces of the original (sometimes intricate) design, no matter how deep I try to dig into AE.I tried installing an older version of AE, tried reinstalling the new one - nothing seems to be working. I did not edit the library in any way, the elements are fully vector/working perfectly fine in all other adobe apps. I end up having to import the shapes I already created out of the same elements from my previous AE files, which affects my productivity. Any advice on how to tackle that? 

I do vector animation and my process is to import various Ai files in Ae. Recently, Ae has not been reading the respective Ai files correctly. So for example if I have taken the head off a character and saved that as a separate Ai file, After Effects show that character still with the head.  The only work around that I have found so far, which doesn't always work, is to go back into Illustrator, make a small change, undo that change, and then resave the Ai file.  After effects then notices the change and when I choose the option to reload footage it (sometimes) works.  Really making my animation work slow. What's going on? 

When I try to move an item into a different bin I get a popup essentially telling me I can't do that (see image below - red circle with slash). This appears to happen after I select a bunch of elements in a timeline and PreComp them but I can't be sure. This absolutely destroys any ability to work. I can't get around it and even worse it seems to infect old saves as well. Any and all help is appreciated!

Today AE starting seriously lagging and responding to anything.  Timeline frozen.  In one example working with one ten second video, the only video in the project.   Cache is clear, mouse and keyboard are wired.  This problem didn’t start until halfway through the day.  This was happening with 2026 version which is why I went back to 2025.  Mac Studio M2 Max / Sequoia / 64G ram, 90% of which allocated to AE.  

Is there a way to use CC ball action, put instead of balls have rectangles and/or custom shapes? That would be really helpful, since all other properties of that effect are great.

Hi guys,I’m looking for some advice from someone skilled in Mocha Pro. The last few days, I’ve been watching some tutorials about the ML Matte Assist. I select the area and let the AI shape the object to track. I see there’s a spline with points only on the first frame, but as I understand the ML mask is tracked in a different way, so I ignore this. After tracking, I go to the Matte section where the Generate Object Matte is already selected. I activate Refine Layer Matte, save the project, and exit Mocha.Back in AE, I select Apply Matte and nothing happens. When I scroll through the timeline, it’s like my video is not responding at all, the frames don’t change. The video plays only if I turn off the Apply Matte option. If I click Create AE masks, it adds the spline points of that first frame only. It seems there’s a mask layer that has some keyframes, but nothing happens either way.I did 2 screen recordings to demonstrate this, and I hope there’s someone here who can help and tell me

Bonjour,Lorsque je lance after effects, un message m'indique qu'il faut 16go de ram pour le faire fonctionner correctement. J'ai 16go, mais il est indiqué dans les infos système que seulement 13,7go sont utilisables (le problème vient peut-être de là). Ce message peut être ignoré avec “poursuivre avec les problèmes connus”, or quand je crée un nouveau projet, la composition reste entièrement noire et rien n’apparait dessus. J’ai trouvé sur ce forum des personnes ayant eu le même problème et j’ai testé une des solutions qui a marché : la solution étant de mettre à jour ma carte graphique intel et d’installer à la place la carte vidéo de base microsoft, sauf que ça a complètement modifié l’apparence de l’interface de mon pc. Je me demandais donc s’il n’y avait pas une autre solution. J’ai déjà fait tourner after effects sur des pc moins puissants donc je ne comprends pas.Merci d’avance !

In my latest VFX History video, I take a look at slitscan.  The effect used in 2001, Doctor Who (1974), Star Wars and Star Trek: TNG.  Throughout the video I use After Effects to illustrate the technique and how it was adapted and then, I end by showing you how to recreate the mechanics of slitscan inside AE using the Echo effect, 3D layers and Essential Graphics. 

I'm using the new Object Mask tool in After Effects to isolate a moving person. I want to create a stroke outline that follows the person as they move. How do I achieve this in the best way?Thanks

I am trying to do some very tedious roto work removing tracking markers on greenscreen. Even though my setting for Mask Feather is set to zero, there is a few pixel feathering that exists, making it hard to really do an accurate roto. Any ideas what I am missing here?

After working, foolishly, on a new project in the latest upgrade (26.0.2) and masking is a mess, so need to save it out to previous 2025 version - is this possible?

This is a PNG image animated [Wave Warp] in Ae and which was imported from Photoshop. You can see edges get cuts when animated. In my view this is because of bounding box in Photoshop. How to fix it? video is attached as well. Ae image In Photoshop image
