Feature Request: Ability to export GIF files starting from After Effects

As a host, I am often downloading animated GIFs to websites like dribbble and imgur. Animations are created in After Effects, but I always export sequences of images or AE quicktime files and open them in Photoshop to then export it as a gif. I would love to cut out the extra steps it takes to get a final GIF that is ready for download with the possibility to export directly to a GIF animated EI. So that's my official request for the feature to add to After Effects.

  • What is the best way to get a SVG file generated from After Effects?

    What is the best way to get a SVG file generated from After Effects?

    Is there a script to do this? I use the SVG file directly in my work. I did research online, but find that it has no native support of EI to achieve.

    I found some scripts online, but they convert output Adobe AE to the JSON file. Is there something similar available for the SVG file?

    Thank you

  • How to reduce the size of the SWF to a file imported from After Effects

    Hello!

    I'm doing a banner web for an internet marketing company, so he has very specific requirements. We did it in After Effects, and I was able to export it to an FLV file and import to Flash very well with the SWF file. Now, I need to make the significantly smaller SWF file.

    At the moment it is 2.5 MB and we can only present a 40K SWF size. It is even possible to reduce the size so much and still keep intregrity of the animation?

    I'm more familiar with Flash than After Effects, but he can play with the settings, etc. If someone can tell me what to try.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    is the flv almost 2.5 MB? If so, your only option to significantly reduce swf size is to load the FLV dynamically (which is not usually allowed with banner ads).

  • Import PNG sequence starting from After Effects (or anywhere)

    For some reason when I import a PNG sequence on stage, he takes over all the png in a frame rather than distribute them in their own keyframes as it is supposed to.

    I've seen this problem posted before. Does anyone have a solution for this?

    I also saw that people have posted that Flash CS3 HATE after effects png... how weird... I'm starting to understand this.

    All solutions?

    I have cs3 and aftereffects and I tried what you described without any problem.  I imported to the stage with the playhead on frame 1, I chose the first ping in the sequence, that I was asked, that there seems to be a sequence of images, and I wanted to import the sequence

  • How to make a Flash swf file. start only after all other elements are on the DW page?

    Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong forum. I didn't know if I should be here or in the forum of Dreamweaver. Just trying to figure out how to make a Flash swf file. start only after all other elements on the page have been downloaded. Is that what you would do in Flash through publication settings, or this would be finished in Dreamweaver?

    You are welcome.  I just checked and there is an onLoad parameter you can use in the BODY tag to ignite a javascript function.  I hope that's what this implies, that it is.

  • Saving files from After Effects to CC for use on other machines.

    I am very very new to After Effects, so I'm sure there is a simple solution to my question.  I recently attempted to save a file from After Effects on Dropbox to transfer easily to another machine, however when I went to open this file on the new machine, several documents in the file, it was missing (png, fonts, scripts etc...).  I suspected that the reason for it is because the png and the fonts were used by AE as they were stored on the original machines and have not actually imported (or copied) in the AE file, so when I went to open the file on the computer again the files were missing that they were not installed on the new machine (is this correct?).  If I record the creative cloud AE files will be I experience this problem? I'll be able to open the AE files on another computer that does not have fonts reference, PNG, jpeg etc. available?

    Thank you

    Yes, AE projects contain only references to external resources. That's why you should pack in full e.g. usind the option collect files. The procedures do not differ to any method that you use, so you better get used to and organize your work in a way so it can be transferred easily.

  • Feature request: make the list "Ignored method" configurable from the GUI

    When the current generation, please edit Onyx.settings file for Add/Remove methods that should be ignored.

    This function can be made available in the GUI?

    BTW, when the Onyx does not read the file Onyx.settings? Only at startup? Or every time you start a capture?

    Hi LucD,

    Thanks for the suggestion! I agree with you that it will be much more convenient if these settings can be changed in the GUI. I put your suggestion as a feature request in our database, and it will run in a future release.

    And to answer your question - the settings are loaded only at startup. However some of the changes made in the settings dialog box take effect immediately after save you them.

    Kind regards

  • Export display Spectral hearing to After Effects

    I want to analyze the sounds in hearing and then export the combined signals and spectral displays, as well as sounds, in After Effects, where I added text.

    First step, I guess, would be to save the display of the hearing (as .mov, I guess).

    Is this correct?

    Is this possible?

    How should I start?

    Thank you

    George

    You will need some software to screen saver to save the graphics of the hearing.

  • Exporting from After Effects to Final Cut Pro

    Hello

    Could someone tell me the best way to export to After Effects, in the Final Cut Pro? This I must have Automatic Duck for this, if yes which?

    Thanks for any help!

    Matt

    You must add your composition to the queue made and then export to the same format and codec you use in FCP. Automatic Duck is a great tool for your FCP or motion to enter into After Effects timelines, but most of the time I simply select an item in the PCF, export it as a sequence of reference, put in AE for treatment, then make a file to use as a substitute for the CPF.

    Search by effects Final Cut Workflow and you'll find some more tips including this one. It is not bad for the body, but it misses the point to use the same codec. All my FCP projects are ProRez HQ or 444 ProREZ it's my choice. Also, if you use the shooting together, which isn't a bad idea, you can use the option to replace footage in FCP that is more effective that technique demoed drag your shot made in the timeline and then cut if necessary.

    I hope this helps.

  • Problems importing files .wmv in After Effects.

    Hello. I know that there is a question like this, but I can't use any other file format, because:

    Every time I have import or try to play or rub the file (.wmv) in the timeline, it displays an error:

    After effects error: frame of reading of the "D:\" file... error (4) WMV ".

    (86: 2)

    How can I solve this problem? I have the AVCHD camera and I (HD Full HD) video editing in Corel Video Studio. BUT! The file format that BEST is .wmv when I export my films. I did an action movie and I want to add effects in AE, but it shows this error. I CAN'T JUST USE ANOTHER FILE FORMAT. Y at - it anyway how to solve?

    In any case: AE CS5 will support WMV WITHOUT ERRORS?

    Thank you very much.

    I'm going to echo previous posters convert your video to WMV to work at AE is one of the worst things you could do. So from a point of view of quality and a workflow perspective. Yes, the uncompressed files are large. you have to find a way to work with that.

    Why the WMV is bad? I'll call you my friend Dave LaRonde After Effects of CreativeCOW .net Forums:

    Response to Dave #1 Stock

    If the images you imported in AE are all sort of what follows - images in a codec to acquire HDV, MPEG1, MPEG2, mp4, m2t, H.261 or H.264 - you must convert it to a different codec.

    These kinds of sequences use the time compression or inter-trame. They have keyframes at regular intervals, with information of the full frame. However, middle managers have all the information. Codecs inter-trame launch duplicate information.

    In order to maintain maximum efficiency made, AE needs complete information for each image. But because these sorts of images contain only partial information, AE freaks out, resulting in a wide variety of problems.

    WMV falls into the same category using interframe compression. Even if you have used files directly from your device, you would have still some problems because your camera uses MPEG-4 h.264 compression.

    Try to export Corel a QuickTime using the PNG codec (I've never used the program, so I don't know if they give this option, but it is still visually lossless and a little less large files).

  • How can I reduce the size of file provided by After Effects?

    When I visited a project of second 5 relatively easy in After Effects, the size of the file of the .avi resulting is 64 MB.  If I change the properties in order to reduce the size of the file, the degradation makes the unusable file.  What I am doing wrong?

    Encoder AE is really otherwise ineffective?

    The thing is, AVI doesn't mean much.

    It's almost an empty container box, which does not imply a level of quality.

    Thus, SOUL could default to something completely different as a starting point to produce an AVI file.

    AE by default, when you pick up AVI as uncompressed video format. So, obviously this causes huge files sizes. There may be thresholds of similar quality with smaller sizes if you take other AVIcodecs, but that's another topic. And in all cases, when you went to a master of production quality, the file size is usually not your primary concern. You typically use this video high quality file as a source for flavors compressed for distribution. So, blank video files with huge sizes are a good thing - people then wonder why trailers at apple.com, for example look so good. And the thing is, more compressed formats greatly enjoy having an uncompressed source file.

    Yes, about the effectiveness of the encoding, AE is less effective than the encoding solutions. First and foremost, because it does not support 2-pass encoding. Note that for some formats, 2 pass makes a difference of night and day, while for others, nothing as drastic as most users seem to believe.

    This is a questionable for AVI point, because the default AVI codecs do not offer these encoding options, which are more in the domain of distribution formats such as FLV, MPEG-4/H264 or WMV.

    There are codecs of distribution using AVI as a container there, but that's another matter.

  • The feature "Made simultaneous multiple images" or a similar added after effects CC?

    Adobe removed the feature "Made simultaneous multiple images" after effects 2015. Is this feature or a similar feature in after effects CC? I'm curious because I'm considering buying a new processor, and I need to know how the multi-core performance is the latest version of After Effects. I'd appreciate any guidance on this topic, if anyone has a Pearl of wisdom here.

    Hi kearley2018,

    The links below are for comfortable reading about multicore performance.

    As far as I know, their methodology is quite valid.
