Hi everyone. I am having an issue with the color of my text in an After Effects template. It is supposed to be gold but is a multitude of flourescent colors (see screenshot). I'm new to AE and regularly rely on other artists templates to create the finished products I am after. I'm hoping someone out there will know exactly what the issue is. Oh and the templates creator doesn't seem to have any idea as to what the problem might be, which is frustrating. Many thanks, Reece

You are seeing color bars behind the text. This tells me you have some missing assets. Check the Project Panel, or start soloing layers until you find one with color bars and then right-click on the layer and reveal the layer in the project. Search for the missing asset on your computer. If it is not there, then contact the person that supplied the AEP file and get them to send you the file.

Just wanted to add you can also search in the Project panel for the word: 'missing'.  This will highlight any other files that project might have lost a link to.  Most of the time, colour bars make it obvious, but with matte layers, audio files and hidden layers, it can be harder to spot.
