Questions

@Adobe. Do you guys have a basic suggested workflow yet for Log N-Raw (.NEV) clips in After Effects? Would love to be able to do VFX work from the base footage rather than round-tripping through other apps. Can anyone suggested the 32-bit OCIO color management set-up for .NEV log into ACES workflow for After Effects? Do you have any resources on implementing the correct .NEV transforms for that standard ACES VFX workflow?Thanks

Ive been using the "convert to a AE comp" in premier for along time with no issues, however suddenly(perhaps an update?) when I use this it will open AE and create a comp however the timeline will be empty, where it used to put the media into the comp.

This is a new bug that showed up after my software did an auto update (After Effect 25.6) over the weekend. Now, when I "Replace with After Effects Composition" in Premiere and go to the new comp in AE, any editing I try to perform on the new comp (add text, create mask, etc.) causes a jump to a previous comp that is open on the timeline. If I go back to the new comp that was just created I can't edit the new comp (Jumps to previous comp) without closing AE and reopning. This happens every time I "Replace with After Effects Composition" in Premiere. After Effect 25.6Premiere 25.5MacOS 15.6.12019 Mac Pro

Hi everyone!How can I remove the halo that appears around the subtitles? The glow effect is applied, but it looks like this when I export. It's not as noticeable in the preview, but it's there when I export. Is there a way to fix it?Thank you so much for your help.  I've attached a screenshot of the issue.

I am animating a graph so the lines travel accross the screen at the same time. They need to go at the same point accross the screen even though they are different lengths in total. I have attached an example of where I'm up to - I have the pink and green dots separate to the lines and I'm using a combination of trim paths, linear wipe and time stretch to acheive this. It is proving quite fiddly and time consuming! Does anyone have a suggestion of how I could do this more easily? Would appreciate any help, thank you.https://vimeo.com/1137417192/6f6ba08e3b?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci

So I'm still fairly new to this whole after effects thing and I wanted to put an audio spectrum in my videos, but I don't like how jumpy and how too reactive it is. I want it to be similar like this : Video. I already tried messing around with the settings a bunch of times (like the audio duration and offset and the height and etc.) and searching online and past reddit posts but nothing can seem to quite get it just right.Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone, Does anyone knows if there is a way to offset layers and keyframe with the same value?I explain : sometimes, when you need to add more time at a certain point of a composition you need to push further some layer blocks AND also only push some keyframes on a layer (most of the time this layer is my camera for example).As you cannot select and push layers and keyframes selected at the same time here is why i ask. I can do it manually with two selection steps but it can lead to mistakes in my count of keyframes to add. And also as it is a matter of timing, i need to try and see with more ease. I've send a visual example if it's not clear.  Thanks 

Hi, I'm trying to figure out one issue and unsuccessfully, so I'm turning my question to you. I have layers for eyes, for this problem mainly Pupils - Iris - White as picturesPupils are in Iris and Iris in White. However the Iris slightly overlaps the White and if I put Pupils into the overlaping area, they are visible, which is not wanted factor as next picture I'v tried to find a solution online, but non of them worked for me. It¨s like I need mainly the Pupils to be in the Iris (which is working) and secondary in the White (which I dont know how to do) Thanks for your time

this funny error message pops up when I double-click on a texte layer to select directly a single word.Apparently the text tool doesn't like to be too fast at clicking. I just click OK and i can go on.If i just click once to "enter" on the texte layer to select text, nothing happen and i can continue to double or triple-click to select texts. PS. My app is in french language. The message is not translated.AE 25.5.0 — Mac Studio M1 Max — 32Go RAM — 130Go free disk space — Macos Tahoe 26.0.1 (25A362) 

Hey guys,Still somewhat new to after effects - and when I download templates off the internet I get an error message saying I'm missing the "Fill" plug-in. I've done some research and one place I looked said it is a default plug-in and I'm also finding it come up on Google as RE: Fill which is like $100. Do I need to pay for the plug-in or is it a default and not showing up for me for some reason? If so, are there any fixes to this?Thanks in advance for any answers and helping me past this confusion.

I have the problem that when i add Twixtor on some clips, they glitch at some points and turn green or black for a short time. My theory is that it is only occuring on Clips with much motion and Ive heard that I just have to put the Motion Sensitivity lower but its not helping. Ive also checked that the input fps are adjusted to the input clip. Also there is no difference between putting it on an adjustment layer or the pre composed clip itself.Any ideas??

This version doesn't read Cryptomatte layers correctly for me, does anyone else get broken cryptomattes?

Hey everyone,I was wondering if there is any information on the next iteration of the Rotobrush tool. Is a "Rotobrush 4" in development, and if so, are there any anticipated release timelines?

For whatever reason, whenever I launch After Effects now, the app freezes when scanning folders and immediately crashes. No error message shows up.I tried basically everything.Starting in safe mode, disabling third party plug-ins (didn't have any to begin with), resetting preferences.Uninstalling, re-installing, manually deleting all files relating to After Effects and then installing it again.It always crashes at the splash screen when it's scanning folders. The folder it crashes at changed every time.I went into Windows settings and gave high-performance to After Effects but that didn't work either.It was literally working fine less than 4 days ago and I finished a project on it. Now it does this and I'm truly stumped on how to fix it.

I've been up all night trying to render a 3:30 animation. Had to render in 15/20sec increments and then stitch together in Premiere Pro because it kept causing the "force quit" dialogue to pop—which has never happened before, usually you have to initiate a "force quit"—saying there is no more memory left, shown to be using 663.35GB, which is more than I have.  This is the first project I've done since updating to Tahoe. Mac specs: M2 Max, 96GB RAM. Using AE latest version 25.5, even uninstalled and installed the last 25.4 to see it that would fix it.  Also, while animating, the preview was so slow I couldn't get the timing down. I don't do a ton of animation projects but have been using AE since 2015 and have never had an issue while working, sometimes it would slow a bit while rendering, but this is ridiculously slow. So slow I was just scrubbing to see if it was about right. Even using the lowest quality preview. Then rendering a 3:30 project was going to take 3.5

I am working on a client project for a UAE based company called wheelsonrent.ae. . The video needs to explain their business in a clean and modern way, and part of the requirement is to export certain animated sequences from After Effects into Lottie JSON format for integration inside their mobile app. The issue I am facing is that when I use Bodymovin to export, some pre‑comps with track mattes and nested shape layers render incorrectly. The alpha channels are not preserved and the animation either disappears or shows solid blocks instead of the intended transparency. I have tried different render settings, flattening layers, and even converting shapes to paths, but the problem still occurs. This is very technical and I could not find any working solution on YouTube or other tutorials. Has anyone experienced this specific issue with track mattes and nested pre‑comps not exporting properly to Lottie, and is there a reliable workaround?

I have been in contact with Adobe support as I somehow lost my version of After Effects CC2019 during a operating system upgade and Adobe recommended I ask the community if anyone has the installer for After Effects 2019 that I could download. Any help would be much appreciated.Thank youDavid

Hi, i experienced this bug in AE 25.5 and new beta 26.Windows AMD machine with nVidia GPU.I have composition, and it look like it is empty, but it is not.There are plenty of layers which are invisible in timeline, but in viewer those have proper behavior, so if I put this composition to another, I can use it, but I can not make any change (because there are no layers visible)It looks like after shy applied, but shy switch is of and layers did not have it enabled.I experienced this in AE 25.5 where disapeared one layer between bunch of others (the layer numbers was 89. 90, 91, 93, 94  - layer 92 just missing. But their content in viewer was visible..And now in Beta 26.0 there are missing all layers which was imported from another project. It affects just one precomp. The behavior is the same like I described. No layers visible in timeline, but their content is visible in viewer and all comps where this precomp is visible..viz attached screenshot. And! When I duplicate the
