After Effects

https://www.instagram.com/p/C5E3E5PNyfr/?igsh=bGQwcGR0ajh5bmFn How can I do a Kinetic TXT Animation like this Instagram video by Mat Voyce, where it says “THUD” at the bottom of the video which I have done screenshots of and circled in red. I’ve looked on YouTube and can’t find any tutorials on this specific txt animation technique.  

Here's a screenshot of an AE sequence with only 2 shape layers and one solid with a mask. Note the amount of RAM it took. 56 GBs for three basic layers?! In a FHD project?!!! What is going on?  I made a 5 minutes motion graphics project in the previous but one version and it only took 45 GBs.

Does anyone know how the effect of adding animated lines around an object was achieved

 I'm trying to set multiple linear() ramps (in this case to set opacity) at various points in a song..my expressions seem to be creating the arrays as expected... but I am not getting the expected results for the resulting post-expression graph... (see ALL CAPS section below)... it seems my if/elseif are just falling through to the else.. thus, setting the opacity to a constant value.  beats_per_min = 104 sec_per_min = 60 beats_per_bar = 4 seconds_per_beat = sec_per_min / beats_per_min section_bars = [0,2,8,8,4,8,2,8,4,8,2,8,8,9,8]; // set the bar number at the end of each section section_bars_cum = new Array(section_bars.length) section_bars_cum[0]=0 for(arrIndex = 0 ; arrIndex< section_bars.length-1; arrIndex++) { section_bars_cum[arrIndex+1]= section_bars_cum[arrIndex]+section_bars[arrIndex+1] } // set the time(in sec) at the end of each section section_time_cumulative = new Array(section_bars.length) for(arrIndex = 0 ; arrIndex< section_time_cumulative

Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War had one of the slickest title sequences ever, created by the brilliant folks at Sarofsky. In this video, I rebuild that look entirely inside After Effects, using both the new Advanced 3D renderer and the Classic 3D trick for older versions.   https://youtu.be/VItvU_eznN8

Pretty simple problem here, but maybe without a simple solution. I have a large collection of short (~5 seconds or less) clips (~300 in total), and need to apply pixel motion blur to all of them.The problem is that pixel motion blur creates a massive volume of cached data (several GB for a 5s clip). So I need an automated solution to: loop through each clipapply pixel motion blurrender the clip outclear the cachemove on to the next clipI could do this manually, but it would take absolutely forever.I tried to automate the process with AE scripting in JavaScript, but it seems that pixel motion blur in particular cannot be applied in a scripting environment (?)Any suggestions?

When I copy Position keyframes from one layer to another in After Effects, the anchor point on the target layer also changes to match the anchor point of the original layer. I only want to transfer the motion, not the anchor point settings.I’ve seen the same issue mentioned in a YouTube video, but no solution was provided.Can someone explain why this happens or how to copy motion without affecting the anchor point? I’m new to After Effects and stuck on this problem.https://youtu.be/cU_1LShq7b0?si=d4T6TNBDqbuw4L4_

Hey everyone,I’m running into a pretty time consuming rendering issue and wanted to ask if anyone has dealt with something similar before. I have an particle effect that uses Trapcode Particular combined with Echo to create particle trails. The look is perfect, but the render times are absolutely insane. For example 2 minute 16 seconds of a footage takes about whooping 3 hours to render sometimes even longer. Here it is basically how it looks like:  Particle trails created by increasing Wind in Particular, and Echo is what makes them dotted like this. I tried pre-rendering the particles first and then applying Echo, but it doesn’t produce the same result. I also tested alternatives like CC Time Blend etc. but none of them matched Echo’s look either. Are there any tricks to make Echo faster with particle systems? or is there any plugin that behaves like Echo but renders faster? For the record I’ve also tested the same project on friends systems (i have GTX 1650 Ti, they have RTX 3060 Ti

When linking layers to a null controller via the Parent pickwhip, the layers disappear. I'm using AE 25.6. This has never occurred in previous versions for me. I noticed similar earlier posts about this glitch and the issue was that the user was connecting to the null via the Track Matte pickwhip. I am using the Parent pickwhip. Can someone suggest why this is happening? Thanks!!

Hi!I'm trying to make a line that is marching ants from point a to point b but no matter what I do to the offset it looks as though the dotted line grows from each individual dot. See video below and notice the first few dots as it moves. I really want just a smooth constant and consistant movement. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, this is my first time writing a message like this, but it's also the first time I've been unable to solve this problem. I will briefly describe my task so that you are aware of the situation. My client wants us to use 3D on a phone to present the features of their application. I am purchasing the 3D from Envato. Everything is fine, but I want to put some brand elements under the phones themselves and I can't because each 3D model has a background that I can only change, but I can't remove. I am attaching screenshots, and I can upload more, but I would be grateful if anyone has done something similar and managed to solve this issue. Thank you in advance.

When I replace a clip in my timeline inside of Premiere Pro with an After Effects composition, my Ae opens up to an empty composition.I'm using the BETA version of both Ae and Pr. Posting this to either find a solution or atleast let the devs know. 

Hi there! Is anyone else experiencing difficulties building the GPU sample on a Mac (M3 with Xcode 16) for SDK_Invert_ProcAmp?The log indicates an issue with SDK_Invert_ProcAmp_Kernel.metal.h issue the file looks incomplete, which might be related to Boost or the Python version, although I'm quite sure both are set up correctly.If anyone has suggestions in general, especially for an OpenGL workflow,I’d really appreciate your advice. Thanks!

hi all, i have a distorted (glitchy effect) video. (displace pro plug-in , the displacement map is taken from  a "old glitchy VHS video" resource, it alters the video by luminance/hue)i would like that the sound also be "glitchy" as well, in sync with the glitched video. want to use the Modulation effect on the audio layer, but i need a number value to link it to the parameters of the effect so the sound is altered when the video is slightly/very glitchy. so i figured - if i can get a number value from an expression that calculates the difference between the original video footage and the final glitchy video footage - i could link that number to the Modulation parameters and the desired effect would be obtained. so, can anyone tel me how to write that expression? number = orig_layer - glitched_layer ? would so much appreciate this. i mean the internet is filled with "how to make video react to sound" but not 1 answer about the other way around.ai
