Hello, I am having trouble exporting a transparent video from AE. I have made the background transparent on my video as well as the fill (only a short animation of the stroke), Everything shows up correct on the AE preview with the right transperincies the problem is the export. When I add it to the render queue I make sure to change the settings to:QuickTime, RGB + Alpha, Apple ProRes 4444and it still comes out with a black background... I've tried compressing the file after and selecting preserving but still black.  Please help! Thank you

Hi, I have a question. so recently I ended a project. It was 4000 x 4000. but later I needed it into 1980x1020. so I copied (Copy paste) the original AE file in the same folder and Created a new project with 1920 x 1080 dimension. and imported the copied AE file into the new project and from there I am redoing some animation  to fit 1920 x 1080 screen. After a while suddenly a thought came into mind and it drives me crazy. Will this copied AE file hamper the original one (4000 x 4000). Yes or No, Please help me. Yes or No

Hey guys! I've tried to install After Effects in my PC but it keeps telling me Retry... I don't know why. Any ideas on how I can resolve this challenge. It's too frustrating 

I am following a tutorial and my bend is behaving strangely. I set the start and end to receive the desired effect and I set the rotation with keyframes, when the shape turns, it breaks completely and I cannot use the bend as I would like. I noticed that the start does not follow the shape and stays in the same place. How can I fix this, and why doesn't the Grow bounds work? 

Hello,I’ve had a version of After Effects installed on my computer for some time now, and it has always worked perfectly until a few weeks ago. Since then, a blank black screen has replaced my compositions, regardless of the project I open. I’ve tried finding solutions on forums, but nothing has worked. I’ve uninstalled almost all of my software to avoid compatibility issues, changed versions of After Effects, reinstalled new drivers for my graphics card and processor… but still nothing.I’ve restarted the software while resetting my preferences and even launched it in safe mode with Ctrl+Shift+Alt, but no improvement. Finally, I’ve tried changing the preview settings by toggling between Mercury GPU/CPU settings, but still no success.I’m quite worried as I can’t seem to find a solution. If it helps, I’ve noticed that when I enable “full screen” in the preview settings, I experience significant display bugs but still no visual output of my scenes.If you know of a solution, I’d great

Not really sure whats going on but I have several different mp4 files on my computer all downloaded through the same method but a select few of the files I downloeded more recently, turn into mp3's when I put them into the compisition. This used to only happen with 1/8 of my files but now every new file I download and import into After Effects turns into an MP3 and I'm not sure what to do. The MP4's play fine on any media player app I have but the second I place them into the timeline the video dissapears but the audio remains. Please help.

So lately I have a problem with after effects. When I open a old project or make a new one, I can't see anything i have placed or place. Also when I move some of the side panels like the layer panel it glitches. I dont really know what to do and I need this program for school.

I've long been wondering about the best way to create a cloud flythrough using Adobe After Effects. Thanks to 3D layers, you can get pretty close with faking volumetric clouds. There are a lot of steps however that make it tricky to get right.   First we need some images of clouds. I opted to use Adobe Firefly for its generative AI based on Adobe Stock. This got me a lot of useful cloud images, but as the Adobe's AI does not allow for transparent backgrounds, I then needed to open the each image into Photoshop. For the wispy clouds, I was able to use the Red Channel as a layer mask to remove the blue backgrounds. For the fluffy clouds, I used the new Remove Background option in Photoshop to cut out each cloud. This wasn't perfect for my needs though, so I then used a trick where I was able to decrease the selection outline to crop or trim each image.   Once I had all my images, I started in After Effects by creating a precomp which allowed me to collectively manage all the

I have tried every combo with my Dell Precision 3551 - usually on a USB keyboard I can easily shift frames with ALT+PG UP or maybe ALT+SHIFT+PG UP I forget. But on laptop keyboard, there is no way, I tried using the FN key, I tried with num lock on/off and with FN key, is there a workaround?  Same with the simple SHIFT+PG UP to move 10 frames... no luck.

When I try the import "obj" files to AE 2024 (latest version) It doesn't not work and says "After Effects Error: Could Not Load" please help me. Thank you so much!

Hi folks,i am struggling with the following problem: Regardless of the version of Ae (i run both the final CC2015 Version, as well as the most recent CC2017 update) - after trying to preview a composition in my project, the composition window becomes empty and doesn't display anything (see images attached). After that, no matter what composition i open, it all remains blank, when scrubbing through the timeline and when previewing. When i try to quit Ae after that, it becomes unresponsive - i can't exit it other than killing the process in the task manager..I have tried the following: - purge cache/image memory- import project into a new project- open project in different versions of AEAfter seeing similar problems in other threads (with none of the "solutions" helping) let me assure the following: - it is not a magnification or zooming issue, when i start the preview i can see everything, the preview is just killed after that rightaway- the CTI is at a point in time where things should

The solution may be very simple, but I can't figure it out. I have a video using CC Star Dust and Gaussian Blur effects with transparent background (AE-Shutter-Encoder-settings.png), converted to QuickTime format, which I convert to WebM format using Shutter Encoder (AE-Shutter-Encoder-settings.png). I would like to use the resulting video as a transition in OBS, but as you can see in the attached picture (OBS-settings-final-res.png), if the background is too white, the Gaussian Blur effect will be grey instead of the red color I set, but the color will be well rendered against the black background. I have tried all kinds of settings and solutions, but the Gaussian Blur effect always turns grey on OBS.Thanks ahead for your help and sorry if I missed something to mention.

Hello community,I have unfortunately encountered an export problem. For years I have been rendering EXR with a straight alpha multiplying, but since a few days the function is grayed out. The error occurred sometime during version 23.4 and still in 23.5 no different. Was there an official change that passed me by? Is there a workaround? With some formats you can still adjust it, so for example with Quicktime ProRes4444, however this is of no use to me, since we have and need an Aces workflow. Unfortunately I can't find anything about it. The error occurs with multiple accounts in the office.Is it a bug? Am I too stupid? (probably anyway...)I appreciate any advice.Thank youAE v23.5.0 (Build 52) 2023WIN11
