Can someone please explain what in the FRESH FUCK is this? Why does #AfterEffects just close every now and then? Legit subscription! I swear I'll just pirate it again, legit is nothing but endless pain.
Sending my #AfterEffects project files off to an agency who are going to translate it, and setting up the proj so that all the text layers in the dozen or so different derivative comps all link back to a single master layer, saving someone a heap of work. I feel like the universe owes me some good #Mograph karma.
The tinsel is actually procedurally generated using a shape layer, I would make a tute for it, but it renders incredibly slowly. No, slower than what you're thinking, it's actually a Really Bad Idea. I also wrote a script that let me animate the ribon, it's not a physics sim, it's all hand animated. By adding separate controls for each point on the line it's a lot easier to do path animation using shape layers. https://codeberg.org/stib/PureAndApplied_AEScripts/src/branch/cloninate-re-do/ScriptUI%20Panels/points-n-handles.jsx
Hello, #MAPstodon I’ve been exploring with mapping in After Effects lately. Here is one of my recent maps, a re-creation of an 1800s classic map by Cheyyson, complete w/ audio 🔉. I presented this map at last month’s Esri UC along with a couple other re-imagined classic maps.
PSA for #aftereffects users on Apple Silicon - version 24 no longer runs with Rosetta AT ALL. Your Intel-only plugins will not work. Stay on 2023 if you need those. And it's a lot of plugins. The Creative Cloud app shows a "Open (Intel)" option that doesn't actually open Intel :))
I have both 2023 and 2024 installed on a M1 Mac. I want to use 2023 as the default as its the last version to support Rosetta 2 (Intel plugins), but also keep 2024 for the new Roto Brush.
PROBLEM: tools like Overlord and others stubbornly open 2024 whenever I use them.
Any tips? Setting 2023 as the default app to open .aep files is not enough. Thanks.
#Aftereffects may be slow and bloated but at least its 3D camera tracker runs on all cores compared to the tracker in Resolve, which runs on ONE core and takes forever to do a worse job.
