    Correct answer P.M.B

    Your composition is 2 seconds long.  If you want to make it longer go to Composition>Composition Settings and enter how long you want it to be.  In the image below the length is 8min, 6sec, 19frames

    AFter you do that you will have to drag out the time ruler and workspace bars so they encompass the entire composition.

    Considering you don;t understand these very basic functions of the timeline (looping & how to set comp length)

    I'll guess you either missed a very important part of the lesson or you're working on a lesson that is too advanced for you.
