After Effects CS4 / Illustrator scaling of fonts problem

I created a file Adobe Illlustrator consisting of three layers of text in three sizes of fonts, 1296, 72 and 6 points on a computer running WIndows Vista with CS4 (all updates) using the Impact font without mods.  Then I used it in After Effects to create a pixel annimation 1280/720 can evolve from the largest to the smallest font.  I have anti-aliasing more accurate film and NOMINAL value is not defined in the timeline panel.  As you can see from the example, it makes good to a point, then it starts to Pixelize. I reproduced the problem in several other scenarios.

However, when I create the annimation even in After Effects, using the same Impact font, I get the smooth fonts from small to large, see below.  Obviously, I do something wrong, fade when I import the file in AE (I tried importing as images and vector Art), or I create the .ai incorrectly (just using default values).

I have apprecriate your help!

  • Adobe After Effects CS4 rendering problem?

    Adobe After Effects CS4, Im currently edditing a few clips and now that I'm done with a single i would like to make.

    However when I press "rendering" a messge comes up saying the following: "you must have at least one make an element in queue in order to make.

    Please help I do not understand why im getting this error.

    Thanks to that!

    Make sure you have the checkbox to the left of the verified model.

    Also, make sure that you check the rendering parameters. If you inadvertently set the workspace to points to zero then you get nothing in return.

  • After Effects CS4 is no longer loading after installing Office 08

    During the Christmas break, I installed Office 08 and her sewing to have mucked something upward in CS4, After effects because it won't load, the program starts to load libraries and all that stuff of the splash screen and crashes when loading the user interface

    After effects brought long before I installed office 08. Anyone know what's happened and how to fix it? The strange thing is, it works on a couple of Mac, but the majority of the lab is having this problem.

    I tried a lot of things:

    -Completely uninstalled office 08 and preferences
    -CS4 to uninstall and manually delete all the files preference
    -Locate the font files and compare fonts with that of a working mac
    -Create a new login
    -Update for After effects 9.0.2

    After spending hours and hours and hours, in doing so, I had no chance to resolve the issue. Help will be greatly appreciated... I backup all the data and re - install Leopard next week if nobody knows how to solve this problem.

    The failure appears to be in the FLV QuickTime component, which is a FLV to QuickTime as Adobe Flash exporter (or older versions of Macromedia) installs in your [home folder] / Library/QuickTime.  After Effects loads such matter which component that QuickTime is available (they appear in the file > export menu).

    First of all, try to remove the com.macromedia.FLVExporter in your folder [user name] / Library/Preferences, if it is present.  Otherwise, remove the FLV QuickTime component, I described above.

    It is also theoretically possible that the failure is to the next component in the folder of QuickTime, not the FLV component components.  You might could just remove all of the contents of this file and see what happens.

  • AVI out after Effects CS4 vs CS6 for LED panels

    I do with After Effects cs4 avi to play on billboards and have no problem of transmission at the sign. Customers say that they upgraded to After Effects cs6 and avi will play is no longer on the sign. There may be no compression on a file for a LED sign to play but the cs6 files I have seen have no compression and all parameters are the same as in cs4. I want to spend my Department to the latest version of After Effects but not if it will not work with LED signs.

    It is my hypothesis that the specifications listed by aardeb in his last post are output parameters, he faces problems with AE, not the specifications required by its system of signalling LED.  Equipment LED the most traffic I've seen requires content uncompressed of one kind or another.

    If that is correct, must be resolved in the output Module

    Compression type: None (compressed or not)

    The other settings should be left at the default values after setting the Compression Type.

  • After Effects CS4 project to another computer

  • Hotlinks for first and After Effects CS4 with titles

    I created a Rolling title in Premiere Pro CS4.  I would like to create a dynamic link to get back the title in After Effects CS4 to add effects that appear in the first.  I watched a few video tutorials on Dynamic Link and read the documentation and tried a variety of permutations but can't seem to get there.

    Also saw something in these forums about the problems using dynamic links with titles (as opposed to regular pliers?)

    And something about the Premiere and After Effects projects being saved together? in the same folder - is that correct?

    So, could someone explain to me if this is possible and the right way to do it?

    Thank you

    First titles are usually not supported æ as separate entities, since they do not exist as such. Only the titles added to a timeline of the Organization will be present themselves, but can renderings and merged with the background. So, essentially, that it is not the best of ideas to create even titles in first in such a scenario - you can only end up seeing a ton of solids in the placeholder or a completely black canvas. If this is the case, make the titles to separate TIFF or PSD with adequate transparency. And Yes, the projects must be saved in the same location relative to avoid lack of sequences and make mistakes...

  • Effects of lightsaber using the dynamic link with Premiere pro and After Effects CS4

    Hi all

    I'm working on a video project and that you want to add a lightsaber effect, but a layer which is suppose to be transparent isn't using dynamic links.

    I shot the video in my head, and everything else hidden.  I made a flash body to put my head on.  Now I know how to make a lightsaber in After Effects CS4. (starting with comp 1 with videos making a white solid layer, and then using the tool pen to make the sword.  Then copy the sequences video and place it in comp 2.  Then to return to comp 1 and remove the video sequences. then on comp 1 making a SOLID BLACK LAYER {that's the problem} and place it under the layer of white.  Then duplicate the white layer 3 times.  Changing each feather white layer mask to make the glow.  so going to comp 2 and take the 1 model and her nest to model 2...  Then change the blending mode of the model nested 1 to the screen.

    The main timeline in Premiere Pro CS4 and I have the video layer 1 to Photoshop file which is pink and the background of this project.  I made a dynamic link to After Effects and copied and pasted the video images and flash to the comp.  Here, I made the lightsaber.

    That is the problem.  The model of dynamic links with video, flash and the lightsaber will not show my pink background in Premiere Pro shows him my video, flash and lightsaber but the background is black.  In case of problems, I noticed if I turn off the LAYER BLACK for the lightsaber effect, I see my pink background with video and flash sequences and the glow of sabre, but my blue lightsaber color will not appear.

    Do more problems I set photoshop to lightsaber model file and I see the video, the flash, the lightsaber but I think because the background is pink I don't get a color glow to the sword (vilot color)

    If the layer of black is supposed to be transparent, so why can't see my background in Premiere Pro using dynamic links?

    appreciate any help I can get,

    Thanks in advance.

    Mr. PETER K

    P. S. - one-way I kinda had this work was I took one of the masks of white and copied and pasted layers in nested layer comp 1.  Adjusted to the width of the mask and the pen and I got a glow of blue ok.  You just can't mask width too because it shows a lot of black.  It is not as good as I want and I hope someone can help...

    Thank you again...

    Well, blend modes don't create transparency, so the behavior is correct - because technically, the background of the model is ignored for the mix of operations, in areas where there are no content below for the mix, only the layer of black color is used. You create transparency good, real luminance based on unmultiplying, that can be done with the Knoll Unmult plugin Red Giant Software (free) or the effect of changing the channel of the AE monitoring bey a color delete effect.

  • After Effects CS4 install on Win XP 64 bit OS

    I try to install the After Effects CS4 for a Win XP 64 bit OS trial version.  There was only a single downloadable trial available and figure that if there is 64-bit trial versions, it would be packed with this also.

    Setup designates the place of installation as "C:/Program/Adobe" which is correct because it is the location of the 64-bit program folder.  However, he falls in fact demand in "C:/Program Files/Adobe (x 86)".  Also when After Effects CS4 is run, it appears as a 32 bit application in the Windows Task Manager process list (labeled as "AfterFX.exe * 32")

    If possible, is it possible to get to After Effects CS4 correctly recognized as a 64 bit under XP64 application?  I know that this OS is not entirely supported by the system configuration required, but managed to install Photoshop CS4 as a 64-bit problem-free application.

    Another thing that confuses me is also the After Effects CS4Readme/technical note:

    http://KB.Adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405854 http://KB.Adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405854#_Toc162848026

    By problems known...

    "When installing on 64-bit Windows Vista, an incorrect default installation location is displayed. The application will be installed to the correct location: C:\Program Files (x 86). (#BG064131) »

    This means After Effects CS4 is a single 32-bit application?

    Yes. For now, the AE is still a 32-bit application.

    Photoshop CS4 (Windows) is a 64-bit application, which is why it installed under 64-bit application path structure.

  • Adding After Effects CS4 CS4 Design Premium

    Hello Adobe community.

    We have Adobe Creative Suite CS4 Design Premium for Mac, which does not include an After Effects CS4, I discovered. I found the download link for this in the downloads section, but of course, it will fail to activate with CS4 Design Premium serial number we have.

    I did not need after effects CC or any new version, after that Effects CS4 is one that we need - is there no way to buy a license or serial number just for that?

    Thank you...

    correct, there is no way to purchase/license any product pre - cs6 Adobe including ae cs4.  you will have to buy a 3rd party and try your luck buy adobe cs6 (or subscribe to cc and 'rent' your cs6 and/or adobe products cc).

  • I did a shape layer, and it moves in After Effects CS4.

    Hello

    I'm working on a project that has a lot of masks and shape layers to frame masks in After Effects CS4. For example the timeline that I am focusing is 3 seconds long; There is 2 keyframes in the shape layer (vertical rectangle), key frames are 3 seconds gap and are at the same position (511.1,89.5). If I go to the beginning of the seconds 3 press the space bar and let him play for some reason any moves the rectangle from left to right. Although keyframes aren't there, he is moving-even thought the last keyframe to the left is the same as the next keyframe law - as the first screenshot

    The best solution, I came up with for this is to copy and paste keyframes so that there is a keyframe for each frame within 3 seconds, then I get a schedule like the second screen shot.

    Is there something I could use where I could select 2 identical keys seconds out and make the form remain in the same spot with them into the second screenshot? It is speed and things happen quickly in this case isn't it?

    I also had an another question-are there - it a shortcut to insert a keyframe in the timeline? I found a page with all the shortcuts and couldn't find this one should be.

    Thanks guys, you have been life savers in the past!pic 1.pngpic 2.png

    As keyboard shortcuts you go to hold down the option/alt key and the keyboard shortcut ' Show/Hide properties ' to switch between adding and removing keyframes.  Adobe does not have the freedom to document them all in their page keyboard shortcuts, so here goes:

    Option + P: Position keyframe

    Option + R: Rotation keyframe (adds the keyframe at all values of rotation and orientation if the layer is 3D)

    Option + S: Scale keyframe

    Option + A: keyframe Anchor Point

    Option-T: Opacity keyframe (adding a keyframe of intensity if the layer is a 3D light)

    Option + M: Keyframe mask path

    Option + F: Mask Feather keyframe

    Option + L: Levels Audio keyframe

    * This does that for the single letter shortcuts - double letters do not work (i.e. TT for the opacity of the mask, RR for the time remapping, etc.).

    * Option + shift + the letter will work too which is good if you have reconfigured the Option + letter for other things such as throwing scripts - that I have.

    On the "boomerang" effect, I highly recommend you go to your preferences > "Général" tab and turn on 'by default spatial interpolation to linear', then you can manually add the Bezier handles to your keyframes in the composition Viewer if need be.
