Import from Illustrator to After Effects

Hello

I can't import an Illustrator file into After Effects. The project of the Illustrator has seven layers. Import the file by selecting import into After Effects > name of file > import as composition by keeping the dimensions of the layer.

In the timeline panel, there are 7 Illustrator layers, however, all the things on the other layers seem to have moved to the top layer because it is the only layer that controls anything; opacity, position etc.

Anyone know what is happening?

See you soon

Your description sounds like not create you layers in Illustrator.  You need to do.

You probably just have a layer of 1 of your Illustrator document.  You create layers 2-7, moving things in each layer, and it is also good rename each layer with something that makes sense.  Hardcore artists Illustrator blow that right away.  In the case of a human body, they would be the eye right, where eye, head, torso, right arm, left arm, right foot, left foot.  Just double-click on the name of the current layer and re - nominate away.

  • I can not import PSD file to After effect in the form of composition.

    I can not import PSD file to After effect in the form of composition.

    When I try to import the PSD file according to the effect CC (2015) as a composition, AE will stop responding and then I have to close and restart the application.

    After effect CS6 works very well, but AE CC does not not and will close while I try to import the PSD file as a composition.

    can anyone help?

    Hi good morning all.

    I finally found what causes this problem.

    That I've added the link of 3ds max compositor (CEAP) to my folder plugin effects Jefferson, sequelae stops responding to PSD (import in the form of layers as a model) files.

    then, after the removal of this file (CEAP) every thing change to normal mode.

    now the question is only how to use 3ds max scene after effects without this headache.

    Thanks for everyone.

  • Export from Illustrator, inner glow effect pixelated

    I design a keyboard emoji for a client and I used the aesthetics > feature of inner glow that correspond to the typical style emoji. However, when I export from illustrator as a .png, despite the expansion of the appearance, the effect of inner glow ALWAYS appears pixelated.

    I'm not zoomed in. The rasterization of the Document settings are correct. Is this just a problem with the help of the effects in Illustrator? I'd really hate to have to use photoshop for after their design perfectly in illustrator.

    I have also included a screenshot of what it looks like in illustrator.  Halp!

    Develop the appearance makes your non scalable resolution. Expansion after this step will only broaden your pixels.

  • How to extract a logo imported from Illustrator?

    Hello, I am trying to take a logo I've vectorized in Illustrator and bring it into After Effects. I want to extrude the logo to make it appear 3D but when I "Create vector shapes", it creates the outline but the logo itself is no longer visible. How can I "fill" in the image of the real logo? The attached picture shows what looks like my computer once I have converted the file .ai in outline, and then set the depth of extrusion to 200.

    Capture.PNG

    It's really hard to tell on a screenshot, but this form seems to have a lot of paths and many of them look like they are not closed. You need to keep things as simple as possible if you try to extrude with Ray-traced rendering.

    A much better option would be to bring your Illustrator artwork into a 3D application and OBJ file that you can import into a project lite of C4D in AE and build your model 3D there and then export.  You will as well as more options and you will work a lot faster. Blender (blender.org) is a 3D application open source modeling tools with very powerful. This is the way I would start unless you already have another 3D application.

  • How to import from Illustrator with layers at the same place?

    Hey guys, when I import Illustrator files and import them as images to preserve layers, I get an object for each layer. However, when I move these layers in my computer, they either moved by default to the Center or everywhere where I drop them. How would I move into the model while maintaining the position of the layers in my file to have real?

    Just open the computer that is created when you import a file WAS in the form of composition. You do the work yourself.

    You do not understand how After Effects treats assets. Each active element is the size of the asset with the anchor in the Center. Keep the sizes of layer means that each layer of the Illustrator file is imported into a folder as a separate asset of the size of the layer. It's the same thing with Photoshop files imported as a composition.

  • 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).

  • I imported a Garageband file after effects CC 2015 and hear a clicking noise

    I exported the file of Garageband as an aiff uncompressed in iTunes. Why this file creates a clicking sound when I make in After Effects? It sounds perfectly fine when I play it in iTunes and Garageband.

    In fact, I went to Audition CC 2015 and export the file as an 8 bit 48000 Hz with 2 channels. The click has reduced but is no longer complete the entire song, even if I increase the size of the buffer of 512 to 1024. It does not always end the whole song. At one point the song was more audible.  A technology Adobe told me that Adobe After Effects is unable to deal with 16-bit audio in development mode.  I need to hear the 16-bit version. I did my thesis in AE using music, so I can't believe I have to use the 8-bit version to try to animate, and then import the version made in first. Very disappointing!

    Ohne Sessepolster Systeminformationen wird das nix. Entweder die Plugins blockiert material oder werden ist nicht scripte mit den entsprechenden sceen fur Videodekodierung und Anzeige Funktionen. Ansonsten:

    Failed installation. Error U44M1P7 | Updates

    Auch gut possible, dass das Ujpdate die hose worse ist und dadurch inkompatible Komponenten originated sind einfach. Einfach das neu installieren und drüber cleaning tool.

  • Import Layered PhotoShop in After Effects

    I am under PhotoShop CS5 and After Effects CS5 on Windows 64-bit machine. I want to import a layered PhotoShop file and keep the layers so I can animate the separated elements. Sometimes, everything works fine and I get the PS icon waited in the timeline panel for each layer. But sometimes, everything done exactly the same thing, I get a funny icon on the left (RGB?) and the bounding box of each layer is the size of the model with the anchor point in the middle of the model. The layers are not cut to the limits of the content. The color of the chronology for each layer is green instead of blue. What is going on?

    File > import file... Import kind > composition - keep the sizes of layer.

    after_effects_pslayers_01.jpgafter_effects_pslayers_02.jpg

    The problem is caused by importing a Photoshop file with the sequence checked Photoshop laminate, then click on import in the form of composition. I made a short video to show the difference when you import the same file with two different settings. The problem you will have, is that the images won't be long 2 images.

    It is however a work around this problem if you are engaged in the project loan. First solution, re - import the same PSD file with the correct settings, and then replace the image in each layer. Second, select all layers, then go to layer > time and apply time remapping for each layer, then spread the layer.

  • Import a project in After Effects, and then again...?

    I work at first and there are things I want to do in AE. Can I import an entire project? What can go wrong?

    Or is it a really really stupid question...?

    I use CS3 PP and AE CS4

    Yes, you can import a Premiere Pro into After Effects project.

    Under the hood, it works in the same way as if you were to copy and paste objects in Premiere Pro, After Effects, so the limitations are the same as for copy and paste. After that Effects and Premiere Pro have not all the same features, if certain aspects of your Premiere Pro project will be ignored or converted. There are tables that describe what gets ignored and converted in the section "copy between After Effects and Premiere Pro" using After Effects.

  • [Illustrator to After Effect] Can I bring up the size of the animation, I did in @2 x @3 x?

    I made an animation using Illustrator file. Can I evolve until the resolution of the file after that I did the animation in AE? Or any job here?

    Looks like you want to offer a product of better resolution. There are two options. One is to place your original publication to a larger, collapse transformations, then scale it up to the desired size. If your original composition was continuously rasterize enabled for all vector layers, it works for all vector unless layers some effects have been added to the layers. There is another way. I suggest that you use the script scale Comp. You can find it by clicking file > Scripts and select range of demo or scale of Composition.

    Once you have opened it has just created a new width of model and all your work will be intensified and animations will work fine. Then maybe go you through the layers and turn on the pixelation continues for all layers of IT.

  • Import from Illustrator to AE

    Weird problem / bug on computer keep layer sizes, for a file illustrator in AE. (Photos attached) This means that they are in odd pre comps or previous chart of layers and it is all very weird.

    This happens a lot on CS6, but also on the cc 2015.

    Anyone who encountered this? The only work around I can do at the minute is to rename the original files.

    You had import as an activated sequence option. Try again.

  • How to increase image quality when importing from Illustrator?

    I have a logo that I created in Adobe Illustrator that I try to place in the Muse.  Whenever I do it, it is of very poor quality, blurry and pixelated.  After doing some reading on the discussion Forum, I tried to resize the image in Photoshop and Illustrator, so that I wouldn't have to do it in Muse.  That did not help at all.  I also tried adding transparency 1%, which was not good.  I know it's a high resolution image, so I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing wrong.

    Thoughts?

    Is there a solid white rectangle behind the logo in AI? If this isn't the case, please try again after put an opaque white rectangle 100% behind him.

    When the smoothing of the edges of the content (anti-aliasing), the options are limited, if the background color is specified (transparent). If background colors are known and 100% opaque, much anti-aliasing of higher quality can be obtained.

    PNG preserves transparency. JPEG is opaque. When you go to the JPEG format, I would have expected I have made high quality anti-aliasing, but perhaps this is not the case. If you open the output PNG or JPEG of AI in Photoshop it look pixelated there?
