After Effects

Scratching my head over how to correctly work with D-Log footage from a Ronin in After Effects with ACES color management? Downloaded lots ot LUTs from DJI but not getting the correct results. If anyone has any experience I could really use some help! ThanksNeil

Does anyone have a workflow for this yet?  I’ve seen a few comments saying you can use Claude and After Effects to help edit?  I’ve seen some Higgsfield and After Effects stuff but I’m looking for something specific for my editing workflow.For context I review movies using an animated character that i made in character animator.Right now I’m using Character Animator Where I export my puppet and background into after effects.Once those 2 are in after effects I add the B-roll that im using and match it up to the right parts.My issue is thats it’s so much work, as I’m also adding in cuts to add sound effects and memes to make the video more engaging, but it’s a lot of editing takes me like 4 days sometimes, wanted to speed it up.Has anyone seen anything on this?

This is a recurring issue that started around the time MacOS 26 came out and I’ve been struggling with it ever since. After Effects (and sometimes Illustrator) fail to start. They don’t even get to the splash screen, the freeze before that. They will remain frozen and if you mouse over the control bar at the top, it will show the spinning beach ball. Pressing Cmd +Opt + Escape to open the force quit applications window shows After Effects as not responding.Waiting hours for it to start: No effect. Never starts Force quitting: launches prompts to report the issue to Adobe and Apple. All subsequent attempts to run After Effects get crash repair options but no options do anything. The window has the spinning beach ball when I mouse over it and in Force Quit Applications it shows that After Effects is already not responding. None of the buttons do anything when clicked.Uninstalled After Effects and restarted: no effect, still freezes on crash repair options Uninstalled all adobe apps, and

I created a 3D model of an iPhone in Blender, and I can't figure out what format what export settings it should be in so that it appears as I drew it. I don't see the transparency of the glass on the cameras, there is also no noise on the case, the color of the panels and materials are also not what they should be.Tell me what I'm doing wrong? 3D mode in AE - advanced 3D.

I made a simple 30second countdown timer - keyframed the value 0,50 (half a min, thus 30 seconds) at 00:00 and then 0,00 at 30:00. I assumed this would change the text every second, however I noticed that the text changed in between two seconds (so instead of the timer still reading 27seconds when I'm at about 00:03 and 5 frames it already changed to 26seconds).Then I thought moving the last keyframe to 31 seconds would fix this, it did not. The time still changed a few frames before the new second.I played around with the last keyframe position, but can't find a spot where it changes exactly on the second, and not a few frames before or after, for every single second.I hope my explanation makes sense.My frame rate is 24fps. Am I using the wrong values for the keyframes? What am I doing wrong?Please help.

Pr2025上でクリップを選択し、Aeコンポジションに置き換えをした後、Aeで作業し、Prの画面を開いて再度Ae上に戻るとプレビューができなくなります。インジケータも動かないです。再生のショートカットも反応せず、手のひらツールに切り替わります。Pr、Aeともに2025版を使っています。

Estou tentando colocar um texto onde a pessoa atravessa este texto, o texto que fica na parte de trás é preenchido normal e o texto que fica na parte da frente é somente o contorno, como fazer isso no AE? porque eu fiz o rastreamento de camera para fixar ele na parede, porém quando tiro o preenchimento para ficar somente a borda ele ficar vermelho e não é isso que quero.

I haven't found an answer to this anywhere. I am not sure if it is even possible.  I need to know how to center the anchor point of a single shape within a shape layer.  I am trying to rotate a couple of shapes within a single shape layer, but I cannot figure out how to get their anchor points centered. I know how to do it for the entire layer, but not for the contents within the layer.  

일러스트레이터의 3D and Materials 기능을 활용해 제작한 오브젝트에 그래픽, 텍스쳐를 적용하였는데 이를 obj 파일로 추출하여 애프터이펙트에 삽입하니 모델링만 가져와지고 그래픽과 텍스쳐는 유실되었습니다. .mtl 파일이 함께 생성되었기에 이를 활용할 수 있을지 보았지만 애프터이펙트에서는 .mtl 파일을 지원하지 않더라구요. 일러레에서만든 3d 파일을 텍스쳐 포함된 채로 애프터이펙트에 불러올 수 있는 방법이 있을까요?3D 기능을 활용해야하기 때문에 JPG나 PNG 같은 2D 이미지로 활용하려는 목적이 아닙니다

This video shows Changing UI Font Size. Is this a acceptable way? because there is no feature in preference tool.How To Change UI Font Size In After Effects ? 

Hi,I’m trying to build a shape layer that adapts to the longest length between two text layers, but is limited to 850 pixels in size. Everything functions as it should until I add the clamp expression. The error “expression result must be of dimension 2, not 1” pops up on the first line. How can I fix it, or is there a better way to approach adding a limit to the size of the shape? const line1 = thisComp.layer("First & Last Name, PhD"); // reference top line text layer const line2 = thisComp.layer("Title or Position"); // reference bottom line text layerconst boxWidth = Math.max(line1.sourceRectAtTime().width, line2.sourceRectAtTime().width) + 220; // compares the length of both text layers and returns the larger of the two including padding and leadingconst boxHeight = line1.sourceRectAtTime().height + line2.sourceRectAtTime().height + 120; // height of box including padding[boxWidth, boxHeight];clamp(boxWidth, 0, 850);Thanks in advance!

hello, ı cant find rotobrush tool in tools part in the after effects 2026 can you help? thank you 

Good evening everyone.I'm using ChatGPT because my English isn't very good.Like many other users, i've been experiencing major issues with the latest version of After Effects. Despite working on a PC with 128 GB of RAM, a 32-core CPU, an RTX 4090, and an ultra-fast SSD dedicated to the cache, After Effects has become practically unusable.Not only am i constantly running into "Out of Memory" errors, but the entire system eventually becomes unstable and unresponsive. It's been a complete disaster.After searching all over the internet, i finally managed to get things working again by applying the following changes. i have no idea whether all of them are related to the fix or if only one of them is actually responsible, but it certainly doesn't hurt to try:Disable idle caching in the Composition Preview: Composition > Preview > Cache Frames When Idle. Disable Enable Compressed Frames in the Disk Cache options. Reduce the Idle Delay value in Preferences > Preview to a very low numb

I use the dropbox app to store and share files. Like Onedrive it creates a folder in which multiple people can access, add, modify and change files. You can see every file in the folder but they are just proxies that takes up no space. To use them you have to download them locally onto the computer, replacing the proxy file (on your end). The issue arrives when you open a project another person has created and you haven't downloaded all the files used in the project. After Effects gives the error "The source compression type is not supported. ( 86 :: 1 )" following up with another error window "file 'file_name.mp4' cannot be imported – this 'MooV' file is damaged or unsupported." One would think you just have to locate the files, download them and reopen the project. But After Effects will now hold a grudge against these files and give the same errors even though you have them downloaded locally. Trying to use 'replace file' or just reimporting them will give the same er

I made a simple 3D scene, add environment light, and shadows are "glitching". I've tried setting different values ​​in the render options, but it doesn't help. Has anyone encountered this problem? I've looked all over the Internet and haven't found a solution.Also I encountered a problem. There are no other light sources in my composition. But a small light appears on the layer in several places. after effects 2024

I installed after effects for the first time on this computer, but I was met with a initializing mediacore error. After some troubleshooting I narrowed it down to my AMD graphics card drivers (I use a RX 9070 XT and the drivers are up to date). The only fix I have is to disable the drivers, but that’s not optimal.

My PC is not compatible with the newer versions of After Effects because my CPU lacks the AVX2 support. I am also not able to change to older Versions of After Effects in CC. There is only the option to manage the Plugins. Is there a way to install an older version that is compatible with my CPU without using Creative Cloud?CPU: Intel i7 2700k 3.4Ghz

Since yesterday I have been trying to cut a few minutes video clip (H265 lossless) and apply Warp Stabilizer for each layer.And I see that it is too difficult for this program.1. Video offsets constantly appear on some layer - the program is unable to read the correct frame correctly. I thought I was accidentally moving the layer. However, no, it is the program that cannot read frames correctly.2. Warp Stabilizer - seriously, you can't select layers and have wholesale stabilization? Hello?3. Warp Stabilizer - and this won't show Track Points, and this freezes. The stabilization is supposedly complete and the effect is not visible. Restart the program and it starts working.4. Preview using spacebar - 5% CPU, 5% HDD load - and preview can stop. Because yes, and that's it.I've been working since yesterday, but Resolve is a demon of reliability and robustness next to you.

Hi Adobe Community,We are investigating an issue with After Effects aerender on Windows EC2 render workers. The same .aepx project and render command behaves differently across instances: on one instance After Effects crashes during render and produces a corrupt AVI, while on another instance the render completes successfully.I will attach a screenshot of the After Effects crash popup that appeared during the failed render.EnvironmentWe are rendering an After Effects .aepx project using aerender.Project file:    Outside NNL.aepxComposition:    RenderCompRender command:    aerender -project "C:\Users\Administrator\downloads\NNL Surfer 15 July 2025\NNL-Surfer15-July2025\Outside NNL.aepx" -comp "RenderComp" -OMtemplate "AmagiAVI_v3" -RStemplate "Best Settings_v3" -output "C:\Users\Administrator\downloads\NNL Surfer 15 July 2025\NNL-Surfer15-July2025\rendered\NNL-Surfer15-July2025_7d6681b313a82951.avi" -close DO_NOT_SAVE_CHANGES -v ERRORS_AND_PROGRESS -log "C:\Users\Administrator\downloads

I accidentally deleted the application.xml file inside D:\adobe\Adobe After Effects 2026\Support Files\AMT. How can I restore it? 

Hi,  Just opened 23.3 to render some frames as PNGs for a client, it now no longer works. When you click on Composition>Save frame as>File... it no longer takes oyu to the render queue to choose a format. Instead it opens up a "Save As" window where the only option is .psd. If I wanted to save as photoshop layers I would have clicked on photoshop layers option rather than file. Is this a bug or a removal of functionality to make After Effects a worse product? Is there a fix? Or should I just go back to the previous version for now?

i have tried clearing cache, adjusting various settings, frame rates, my own gpu settings, trying it with different clips, different formats, even on solids.ive tried it across multiple versions of after effects and still nothing, turned off opencl(i have an amd gpu obv) and even fresh installed and still NOTHING what could possibly be causing a single frame ghosting glitch when enabling motion blur + scales id also like to state when messing with the motion blur settings, having shutter phase set to 0 does remove this issue however, it is not ideal when set to 0 considering i need smooth motion when doing velocity style editing.picture included belowsaid issue 

clearing cache, changing video format, reinstalling, turning any and everything on and off, changing drivers, updating drivers, trying different versions of AFTER EFFECTS, and the problem still persist.if you’re going to comment on the issue please don’t ask a question, instead give a solution. really tired of seeing a “?” at the end of all your sentences when this has been going on for a full month.SPECSr5 5500, 5700xt, 16gb ddr4 ramI've edited countless things in after effects. motion blur is supposed to blur not repeat the image and scale it bigger/smaller

I'm on PC, Windows 10.I just updated both After Effects (25.2.2) and Adobe Media Encoder (25.2) today.  Before when I added videos from AE to AME, they looked just fine. I usually export as either H.264 match source-high bitrate, or as Quicktime, or AVI, and had no issue with the look or color. Now when I send to the queue, the videos end up looking dark and oversaturated.  My After Effects project settings are usually Rec 709 for the color settings. I've tried setting it to sRGB IEC61966-2.1, and none, with the same results when trying to export to AME. When exporting from After Effects, the results look just fine. I'm aware I can export from AE and convert videos in AME, but in my daily work, it's really nice just sending it to the AME queue and having it render in the background while I continue to work on shots in After Effects.  I've searched the forums for this issue, and found similar issues, but not quite what I'm experiencing. Any advice
