Hi Halie Parkinson,

Sorry for your issue.
Please follow the steps given in this article to fix the problem: https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects/faq-how-to-solve-after-effects-v-17-5-crash-at-launch/m...

Here is what's going on:

The latest release of Camera Raw is not compatible with macOS 10.13 and After Effects fails to initialize the Camera Raw plugin resulting in a crash. Until we fix this, you have to downgrade the version of Camera Raw.

Hope this helps.
