After Effects (Beta)

Hi everyone! We’re thrilled to announce that the Next-Gen RotoBrush has arrived in the After Effects beta as of 24.0 build 17!   The next generation of the After Effects RotoBrush tool is powered by a brand-new AI model. Tracking objects in footage over time and space is now much easier compared to RotoBrush 2: overlapping limbs and even hair and transparencies are easier to mask.   Here’s a quick comparison with RotoBrush 2 (this is raw footage with no refine edges work). Both examples use this frame and selection as the reference:       And here are the results:   And here’s a side-by-side with refine edges work. Both examples use this frame and selection as the reference:       And, once again, here are the results:     To get started, select RotoBrush in the toolbar, double-click an existing layer in the Composition panel and select a frame to start from. Make sure you've selected version 3.0 in the Effect Control

there is no 'open using rosetta' chekbox at all!i know how to do it, and i've been doing it for while i'm using itand it disappeared! where is it

Element3D Crashing AE Beta V24 Build 41

Do we have scripting access to the "import dialog" (scale, up-axis etc) when importing 3D models?

Hi, has there been added support for managing the new color managment system via scripting? - Set/Get colorspace of an FootageItem.- Get/Set color managment method  

My AE Beta project stopped working for some reason. Apparently v24 isn't compatible w my Operating System, Big Sur.Big Sur and AE Beta v24 are what I used to create the project initially, so this doesn't make any sense. What happened and how can I fix it?! I keep getting this message when I try to open:

Hello, It's been several weeks that I'm having a lot of trouble using the 3D .GLB models in the latest after effects beta.Everything works great when I create a set with several 3D elements and then when I save and open my project the next day, the set disappears in a very small box (see picture). When I press "play" to launch my camera animation (dolly), everything is slow, the image jumps, and everything in 3D disappears in a very small box like on the picture. Have you already encountered this problem ? Thanks for your help!

The use of MultilayerEXR with OCIO/ACES Colormanagement is not working correctly. The Layer-Extraction with the EXtractoR is currently applied after the Input Transform to the ACEScg-Workingspace. The result looks slightly wrong compared to the same Image as Singlelayer EXR. If I disable colormanagement for the EXR-File and apply the Effects (OCIO and EXtractoR) manualy everything works correct. Would be cool if no manual Colormanagement would be needed. With Singlelayer EXRs there is no problem.  After Effects Beta 23.2.0 Build 34Windows 10

Rotobrash in Beta version not working. It crashed AE and now I can not open the program even after reinstolling it.

Hello! I've been doing a few tests with the new 3D model import and it's great. Can you share some information about the scale/units of how you import the data? For example I tried to import a camera (via GLB) from Modo:Modo position: [7,86, 7.56, 4.5] (values are in meters)AE position: [4984, -3333, -2305] (pixels, 1920x1080 comp)(If I right click the position and chose Edit and det units to mm I get: [1758, -1176, -813]) I know that AE uses a flipped coordinate system etc, but can you share some insight how you scale from the above values to what AE uses? I't important for some of my workflows, especially now with 3d import.  

 

Hi everyone,   We're happy to announce that starting in Beta build 24.0x37, we have added 2 new scripting hooks, one to get the fonts being used in the project, and the other one to replace fonts.   You can check their respective documentation here: https://ae-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/introduction/changelog.html   Please remember that these scripting hooks are currently in Beta and are subject to change.   We've also created a demo script panel that exercises these new hooks to recreate the Font Replace experience from Premiere Pro.    The script is attached to this post, but you must rename the file's extension from .jsx.txt to .jsx to run it inside AE. It is also available GitHub here: https://github.com/AdobeDocs/after-effects/blob/main/samples/ReplaceFontsInProject_ScriptUISample.jsx   We're excited to see what you'll be able to do with these new hooks and to hear any feedback you may have!

Hi,   Currently the OCIO Look Transform, Color Space Transform and Display only function with project management set to OCIO for the config file path.   While the implementation of project wide OCIO is very welcome, there will still be a lot of usecases and reasons where one will desire to have the project itself run "non managed" in Adobe color mode and use conversions through effects only.   It would be nice to have AE function like this: - OCIO config file/path is always read and can be set regardless of the project being in Adobe or OCIO color mode. - OCIO effects mentioned above will always read the path from the project settings. - Extra parameters will be added to those effects labeled OCIO configuration: [From Project] as it's settings which would be default but can be overridden by a custom path or one of the other configs that are in the software's OCIO folder.   This is what that could look like. Implementing this would completely remove the need for the

Hi I'm facing some issue while changing font in after effects. Every time when i try to change font in AE its getting stuck and crashing continously. I'm using BETA version. Please help me out of this.

AE beta 24 version freezes the computer right after booting, I couldn't find any information as a result of my research, can anyone help with an idea please.

Since the v24 update, the playback window goes black if I make it wider than the video width at 100%. I can adjust the window height to any size with no issue. If I adjust the zoom to greater than 100%, it still blanks at what would be the width at 100% I also just started getting an error on AE startup:  "Mercury 3D is not supported by the current hardware." - I don't know if or how it could be related.

Greetings After Effects beta users! Thanks to your feedback, we’re extending the Properties panel to include support for Essential Properties. From your Creative Cloud app, update to After Effects Beta 23.3x36 or later to try it out.   Essential Properties give you a quick and simple way to edit precomp properties nondestructively. You can turn a composition's property into an Essential Property by adding it to the Essential Graphics panel.     When you select the nested composition layer, properties you added to the Essential Graphics panel will be visible in both the timeline and, now, the Properties panel, making it easier than ever to create lots of different versions of a design. Source text properties also gain access to options like overriding font, sizing, and styling. You can turn these options on and off in the Essential Graphics panel by clicking Edit Properties on any source text property.     Media Replacement is not yet ready for you to test (st

Greetings!    Today we are excited to share major improvements to 3D model rendering and lighting, starting in After Effects Beta build 24.0x23:  Adobe Standard Material (ASM) is now used when rendering 3D models. ASM is a physically-based rendering model that is shared across Adobe and Substance products.  Environment Lights create realistic lighting, reflections, and shadows on 3D layers by surrounding the scene with an image-based environment map. In After Effects Beta, environment lights only work in the Mercury 3D renderer.  Voxel Shadows can be cast by environment lights, with new controls for how the shadows are rendered.  Scripts can access the new Environment light type.    We have also published a new FAQ for 3D model import and rendering that includes a full overview of these features and all existing 3D model import and rendering functionality in After Effects Beta. We encourage you to read through this.    Adobe St

I've noticed this for awhile but never looked into until now. Is there a reason on Mac OS that update the AE beta to the most recent build would cause it to disappear from the Dock? I have to manually place it there it seems everytime I update to the latest build

Introduction:     After Effects introduced a native OpenColorIO/ACES workflow in our 23.2 release (details here).       As part of this release, we included OCIO File Transform Effect which gives users an option to use LUTs or CDL for color correction/grading.    We have feedback that users want to use a CDL file (e.g. .ccc files containing a list of color corrections) directly and choose the effect from the list as per requirement. Users should not have to break a .ccc file into .cc files to apply the effect.  We are introducing a new OCIO CDL Transform effect under the Color Correction category to cater to this request, starting in the Beta build 24.0 build 14.      OCIO CDL Transform Effect: This effect aims to apply a CDL transform or its inverse to a layer or composition.      The UI for the effect is as follows:        The effect includes the following UI elements:   Select  - Select a supported CDL file

After updates to v23.6,0.29,  AE beta is no longer be able to open 3d objects. The 3d object layer turns black screen.
