I need help with After Effects?

First of all, I use after effects CC 2014 on Windows 8.1 x 64 with 4 GB of RAM, 2 GB nVidia GT 520, 500 GB HDD and Intel 2.8 GHz Dual Core Processor.

I'm having problems when editing an intro long second 6.

1 when I want to get a preview of the intro inside After Effects his super lag, this occurs even after I made the video.

2. its takes a lot of space in my HARD drive, as I mentioned, I tried to change an intro second 6 and it took 20 GB on my HARD drive. What the hell is that... Is this normal?

I'm staring at for regretting the purchase of this software, any advice you can give me...

  • need help with text effect

    I would like to use a graphic of the query (source AVI) as my overlay on the text.  How can I do this?  I use AE CS3.

    ILA.

    If I understand correctly, you want to use your text as a cache for the video layer Layer (IE, view video content within the text), right?

    If so, there are two ways to do this.

    One is hidden.

    Make sure that the text layer is located directly above the video layer in the timeline.

    Press the "Toggle Switches/Modes" button at the bottom of the timeline panel.

    When you do so, AE displayed in this column the mixture and follow the fashions masts instead of layer switches (motion blur, 3D, adaptation etc). They will come back if you press the button again.

    Select the video layer and then hidden in the menu "matte Alpha - (your text layer name).

    This means that transparency in your text layer information will be used to hide the video layer.

    Of course, it works with any type of layer, as long the masking layer is located directly above the layer hidden in the timeline (a way to circumvent this requirement is to use this effect rather than matte controls, but we don't need to get that fancy right away)

    For more information, see track mattes and caches using After Effects.

    You have a "bad". Remove all the fonts which you do not currently need and added recently, then try again. If necessary, remove all the fonts down to only the default fonts of operating system, and then selectively add additional fonts only when you really need it.

    I'm new with After Effects and need help with something that should be simple.

    I use the effect of the stroke and Freehand drawing, and I'm trying to get the text to go from left to right, but for some reason any, that it seems to be random.

    Any ideas?

    If you're new to AE, it would be a good idea to take a step back, take some time and go through these resources. Have solid foundation in how AE work will make things go a lot faster and with much less frustration.

    1. You have security software installed on the computer?
    2. You receive an error message when you restart the computer?

    Reinstalling Windows XP to the factory setting would not be the first option.

    It is possible that some third-party programs or the services installed on the computer interfere with the installation of service pack 3.

    I suggest that you try to uninstall service pack 3 from the computer by using the recovery console and subsequently ask the article below for what to do before installing the service pack 3on the computer.

  • Replace the layer source footage with After Effects Composition

    Hello!

    I have a question about the workflow of dynamic linking between Premiere Pro and After Effects. As common for most editing workflows, I started by import and organize my source footage. I then cut the entire project using the original footage. Now, as he comes to effects and final optimizations, I noticed that there are several items that I need to work in After Effects.

    I know (and use) the function 'Replace with After Effects Composition', but this only works for an item in the Assembly. I have dozens of clips from same source footage and would simply replace the master-clip with a composition. In this way, I can do the AE-job once that overall the clip and the whole project remains perfectly organized.

    As I read elsewhere, there is no characteristic that makes this replacement directly. Trying to "Replace Footage" with one generates an AE-project error. After Effects render and replace the images with the rendered results (as advised in a similar topic) is no option, given that I'd lose dynamic links in this way. My question is: Y at - it another way or the workaround to replace my source footage of the layer with an After Effects composition?

    Thanks in advance for the help and advice!
    Best regards

    What you can get in the way you want.  Your best option is to export a new clip of the AE and use it to a replace operation in the tray.

    In the future, as a Pseudo-solution you can put the 'AE' in their own, dedicated footage clips and change using these sequences, as if they were real clips.  This would allow you to keep the dynamic link in place.

  • Rough Cut created as a prelude with transitions, sent to first Pro works then, using 'replace with After Effects comp', loses the transitions. Why?

    With the help of Creative Cloud 2015 apps exclusively on a 64-bit win 8.1 Pro Gigabyte MB 8 core AMD pcu with 16 GB of ram and nVidia GeForce 8800 GTX graphics card. I deleted all the cache and restarted.

    Created a simple Rough Cut in prelude routinely using H.264 in mp4 video and still photos from format of (via Media Encoder) components ingested in prelude ~

    Rough Cut, composed of a sequence of 1 always followed by 4 x 3 second mp4 followed by another still followed by 4 more 3 second MP4, total length of 30 seconds.

    Together, then the default prelude "Cross dissolve" transition between each item in the first edit.

    Successfully sent this first edit in Premiere Pro using the menu option integrated prelude - send to first.

    Works like a charm in Premiere Pro, including cross-fade transitions.

    HOWEVER, now, in Premiere Pro, have not been able to use then 'Replace with After Effects' option under ' Dynamic Link ~ option is grayed out, regardless of how I select the element/sequence to replace. "

    The only way I have found to use all the options 'Replace with After Effects' is the one that appears when you right-click on a sequence in the timeline window, but when open in After Effects, crossfade effect has disappeared; Only the elements of the scene still show when parsing through the sequence in the timeline.

    After investigation, it turns out that the order of the individual elements that contribute, in the after effects project Panel, has been auto-réarrangés as assets to dissolve cross is now distributed among the other elements of the sequence and therefore cannot perform the intended function. It also destroys the fade in Premiere Pro effect that worked very well before attempting this 'Replace with After Effects' option.

    I need to find a way to keep this intact sequence in Premiere Pro and after Effecys and be able to use After Effects to add additional effects to this rough cut sequence...

    I have run the available tutorials in Adobe and Lynda.com and searched the forum for an explanation, but so far, nothing, I found has solved this problem. :

    1. How can I get the Adobe Dynamic Link to function when it is grayed out in the choice of Menu file?
    2. How to make the right click option 'replace with After Effects' to send the sequence in After Effects without changing its infrastructure, as described above?

    I await with confidence to find someone here who knows what I'm doing well wrung out! and who can show me the error of my ways. TIA. /PSB

    First transitions don't come in After Effects. They never have. Your workflow is not compatible with dynamic link. You should use AE to create shots and then change these shots in Premiere Pro. Trying to bring in a sequence which was finalized with effects and transitions is a losing proposition and not recommended.

  • I'm suddenly needing help with my browser Firefox (6.0.2)

    Hello
    I'm suddenly needing help with my browser Firefox (6.0.2)

    (OS: I use Windows XP).

    When I open the browser, I don't see is a totally white screen of white, with all the toolbars at the top.

    I know that my physical connections are very good: I have tested the modem, turned the pc market etc and I can also receive/send emails.

    This problem started today, September 8, 2011 and has never happened before.

    Is it a coincidence that Firefox itself to day before I disconnected yesterday evening? Could this be something to do with this particular new update?

    I also noticed that just before I "opened" Firefox, I now get a small box indicating:

    [JAVASCRIPT APPLICATION]
    Handl exc in Ev: TypeError: this oRoot.enable is not a function

    This never appeared before - I hope that it offers a clue has what is wrong.

    The browser not be stuck in Mode safe, said by the way.

    Of course, I can't find solutions to the problem on the internet, I don't physically see all Web sites!
    (A friend sends this request in my name from their pc)

    Any light you can throw on this problem of confusion would be much appreciated. I'd rather not have to uninstall and reinstall Firefox if possible.

    If the only option is to uninstall Firefox and reinstall from your site, I'm also in trouble (I can not see the internet or download).
    In this case, would you be able to send the .exe file as an attachment to my e-mail address? In the affirmative, please let me know and I'll give you more details.

    Thanks in advance.

    One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.
