Change in Comp timeline duration - black screen

Hi. My original comp was set to 30 seconds. I quickly ran out of space. So I went into the comp prefs and changed the duration from 30 to 90 secs. Then, I continued animating into the additional 60-second area. Now, when I play back the animation, the comp goes blank after 30 secs, even though the opacity on all the elements is turned up to 100%. How can I fix this?

My guess would be that the layers are ending at 30s.  Even though you extended the comp, the layers cut off.  If you can post a screenshot of your timeline, it might help spot the issue, if extending them doesn't solve it for you.
