Hello everyone,

I've been working on a video I uploaded from Whatsapp. It's been all well until the Screen suddently got colored (like on the pic below). I don't know what happend. Can anyone help me please? 😞

PS: I already tried "STRG"+"z", it doesn't work. But I'm quite new with the program...

Thanks everyone!

The color bars tell you that the file was moved, renamed, or the drive connection was lost so AE cannot find the file anymore. The original footage is not contained in the AEP file. The only thing there is a link to the file. 

 

Find the file and fix the link and you should be fine. There are tools to do that if you right-click on the missing footage in the Project Panel.
