Text animation presets do not load in After Effects CC (or Adobe Bridge when browsing presets). They don't show up in Effects & Presets panel. I believe they used to show up but no longer. They are in the presets folder so I'm not sure why they won't load in either program.
View 2 RepliesI'm using Photshop CS5.1 on my Mac (OSX 10.5.8) and don't seem to be able to load tpl files.
I put the file in Photoshop's "presets -> tools" folder and tried to open it via the brush presets picker. When I browse for the file, only ABR files are shown, TPLs are greyed out.
I had a folder with a lot of presets in Lightroom 5. When I start the program I only see the Lightroom presets and a couple of presets I made earlier. I started all the backups I made since Lightroom 5 but none starts with the bundle of presets I want. Is there something I can do to start the program again with all my presets? By the way, I see all the presets-names I made in the Lightroom-presets map (in the folder Develop-presets more specified).

I am running CS6 extended 13.01 for 64 bit . I have 12 mg ram and working with Windows 7
Im using a mel script to automate basic scene parameters. For some reason though, after I run a setAttr on defaultRenderGlobals.currentRenderer, I cant apply a loaded preset until after I manually open the renderGlobals and select one of the mentalray tabs. Im running "loadNodePresets "basicSet";" as the last line of my scene builder script. What is the proper way to load the preset without manually opening the renderGlobals window?

I have a flash animation, just shapes and tweening. I was wondering if there's a way to convert it to After Effects but keeping it editable (i.e. getting AE shapes and keyframes).

I made a walk cycle (walking forward). I saved the .bip file and what I want to do now is load the walk cycle and loop it a couple of times so that I can fine-tune a couple of things. The problem is that when I load the .bip file from the "Load Motion Capture File", I get many unwanted keys, as if I were loading a MoCap file or something. I want the same keyframes I used in the original animation, just looped. Been playing with Key reduction settings for a bit, but couldn't figure out how to do what I need.

When trying to print in Elements 11, after clicking "Print/Page Setup/Presets/Show Presets", the box freezes. Clicking Cancel or OK does not work. I then have to Force Quit Elements to clear it. Apple say that it is a problem with Elements. Using the same procedure in other applications, clicking Cancel or OK does work.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow do I import 3D models into a 3D layer in After Effects? Previously this was done by exporting the model to Photoshop Extended where you could save the file as a 3D layer PSD file and import this 3D information into AE. But with CS6 this functionality seems to have been removed from what I read in the documents. So how is it done now?
View 6 Replies View RelatedSo far all of the tutorials I've seen regarding Cineware walk through how to bring a 3D object into AE. But, I haven't seen anything yet on bring a 3D animation into AE.
I have a simple Cinema 4D 3D animation created with C4D R14. I successfully brought it into AE CC via Cineware.However, it is not clear how to make it play in AE. It plays well in C4D. But, I can't get it to play in AE.
I've made a fabulous Smoke Text effect that I then insert the .mov file into Final Cut Pro. The smoke effect I downloaded from the tutorial has a black background and therefore when rendered out, it's a basic white text against a black background. Once in FCP, I have to turn the file's opacity down in order for it to layer over a video file and not black out what I layer over it.
How can I make the file transparent? A simple toggle of the transparency grid isn't going to do it. I need to make or find a video of smoke that is transparent?
I have recenty had to reinstall all my software, and manged to find most of my old Lightroom settings in the Lightroom Presets folder (inside the Appdata folder on a PC) but I seem to have lost my custom tone curves.
Do you know which folder they should be in (indise the Lightroom Presets folder)
I STILL don't understand why there are TWO comminty forums for Lightroom;
I'm trying to export an animation created in photohop, its frame by frame, no background. I've been exporting it as an image sequence, now I"ve coloured it I need to solve this transparency issue.Is there a way to export it to use in after effects on top of a background layer.
So I just want to see the character, no background, animation on top of my background layer in after effects.
I'm working on a time-lapse project where I have taken 240 shots of a highway heading into my city, and have erased the cars from the shot, creating the look of an "empty city". This will be one of many sequences like this.
I got the highway background plate perfect, no cars, and I threw that into my AE comp (CS6), along with the 240 images as a JPEG sequence. I've layered the background plate on top of the image sequence and used a mask to "hide" the cars from the highway. The problem is, some of the cars are taller than the roadway (trucks, busses, etc), so they push into the upper part of the frame where the motion is supposed to happen. If I extend the mask upward, you can see a literal bisection between the still plate and the animated JPEGs. If I just move the mask path to hide cars as they go by, the moving mask becomes VERY obvious in the exported QuickTime.
I have worked on After Effects and recently started doing my Motion Graphics work in MAYA. I made some models using the Polygonal Mesh primitive objects for logos etc etc.
I was wondering if I can animate the growth of an object as though it is being formed formed in 3D space. I tried doing this by taking it in AE but it becomes a Flat image and I loose the z dimension, thus I can only move the mask in X & Y axis.
If there are any tools to animate or any Keywords that I can explore to make this job feasible. I do not want to pull down the transparency and animate it as then it makes the entire object disappear or visible at the same time.
I'm struggling to create an effect to a layer shape like the one from below. I feel that it is possible using repeater instead of bunch of layer shapes, but I'm not able to control each copy "individually", to get that wave.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've just started to use AE again (CC version) and I'm trying to make a simple 3D text animation and it seems like it's taking an excessively long time to render. I have a 4 year old MacBook Pro (2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB, NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB) and it's taking several hours to render and export a 5-second clip through Media Encoder. The animation is just text on a black background. I'm using the ME YouTube 480P preset. The original file is 1920x1080 because I am going to have to chroma key it over some existing 1080p video. I did a little 3D work years ago and this seems like an awfully long time for such a short, simple animation. Is there some simple, common mistake I'm probably making? Should I scale the comp down to 480p?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a mobile app overview and I want to add a little "tapping" animation a whole bunch of times for parts where a button is tapped and so forth. I made an animation of a circle scaling quickly to show the tapping.
The only way I can think of doing this is painstakingly mapping out its position keyframes for the different times in the timeline along with setting hundreds of keyframes for the scale. Is there a way I can just animate it once and then just insert it on various parts of the timeline?
can you create a javascript file to use in your website from an animation you made in after effects? or do you have to export as a swf file and open it adobe flash and then create the javascript for it. or do you just simply embed the swf by creating a flash website?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded to Mountain Lion form SL. Suddenly AE can't import lot of .movs.I am almost sure this is a compatibility between the Quicktime components nor the location of them.
For instance, some H264 files are imported fine, as Mp4 files as well. Pro Res, PNG, even Animation! Gives me the "this Moov is unsuported or damaged"I removed the AE pref., chequed my disk permissions, and nothing. Also, i can't see Adobe QT32 Server in the Activity Monitor, but i think this is not a problem because other quicktime files are imported ok.I don't have any firewall trying to break the communication between AE and QT. I tried to opend the files in Premiere, and Media Encode and gives the same errors..I have removed Xvid, Perian. From Quicktime Pro, i have removed all third party component in Libray/Quicktime and in System/Library/quicktime and nothing. Also I'm lost WHERE the final qt components go:
1-HD/Library/Quicktime
2-HD/Users/User/Library/Quicktime
3-HD/System/Library/Quicktime (empty, i don't know why)
The QT codecs: Quicktime pro opens certain files and when i tried to export, it crashes. Quicktime X Plays the files normally, even Prores and even the Finder Preview sees them.this is the QT report:
