One of the most imporatnt things we can do in After Effects to save time and order up our project is using PRE-COMPOSITIONS to arrange certain objects into one container. Precomposing in After Effects allows us to group objects, nest compositions and precompose several layers into one (new) compositoin. This frees up our working area, separates files from each other and allows us to combine elements and apply effects to them in bulk.

Wow damn bro that's the absolute most disgusting annoying and cruel error you can get. Don't worry let's tackle it right by the cohones. We have to go into your preferences and reset all it's options and clear the cache right away. I hope you are okay with your settings beeing reset. Go to EDIT > PREFERENCES and go to Media & Disk Cache. Empty the Disk Cache and clear any Database & Cache files. Now Quit After Effects, hold down Ctrl+Alt+Shift and click on your after effects shortcut to start it. It will ask you if you want to reset the soft. Try precomposing now, if not you will have to go to the Adobe Forums for help but they probably tell you to reset as I did and to reinstall the software. Let me know please if it did help!

I came here to ask a question - when I precompose layers, "Move all attributes" is unselectable. It says it's selectable but the button doesn't select :( Please help.
@andrewpach
@andrewpach 6 жыл бұрын
Hey mate, this is simple, because if you have some attributes set (like for example having the Motion Blur selected for a layer) or making the layer an Adjustment Layer when you simply precompose it - it will put the layers you selected inside a new comp and the PRECOMP will get those attributes. If you select MOVE all attributes INTO the composition they will remain on the layer instead of beeing put on the comp. Perhaps in the older versions it's greyed out when you have no attributes set, but it's impossible that it doesn't work properly. If it does, you need to reset your AE settings! Hope that helps :)

@andrewpach
@andrewpach 3 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure you say "your clip was of the same duration, it got trimmed" so is it trimmed or stayed the same? I think precompose might not be the only solution. Maybe use time remapping to extend it back again if needed. If you decide to precompose it, right click on that precompose -> Time > Enable time remapping and you could drag it out if needed!

You can use the Trim to Area of Interest function which is useful. You make a cropping around your layer and then you can "trim comp to that area of interest". There is also a script which is $10 from what I see on AEscrips which you could look into if you REALLY need that function aescripts.com/pt_cropprecomps/

@andrewpach
@andrewpach 2 жыл бұрын
I think you need to enable 3D first on the object, but I assume you did since you have some 3d movement. This way the Z axis movement should be traced as well. There shouldn't be any problem adding an 3d effect layer that follows your traced object as long as you make sure that you enable 3D (the little box on the timeline) for that particular layer as well.

You can also set the opacity for the actual pre-comp in case that is neccesary. However I cannot agree to this statement. If you set the opacity of a layer and then precomp this layer it will keep it's transparency (opacity) levels since that particular property stays the same

Haha Jacob no no, don't worry you will get it. A Pre-comp is just a container, a group in which you put items. Any items from your timeline. You can, but you don't have to use them (depending on what you do). Just imagine, you have created a little car from 10 elements. You want to resize them now. You don't have to click on each single element of the car and resize it manually, or even create a null object and parent and resize - you can simpyl use a precomp! Create a precomp > call it car > put all 10 elements in there > now just resize the precomp called "car" and you would be done :)

I don't think that is possible, if something is a composition and you have it on the left side in your Project panel double clicking should take you inside that composition. You could try and reset your view on the top right hand side of after effects because maybe you closed the main preview window. Click on Window > and select Composition: (none) on the bottom half of the listing.

In AE how do you "pre-bake" movement in a Pre-composition? I have stabilized some high shutter speed footage on a point track. I have pre-comped the footage, the null object and transform movement that stabilizes the footage. But when I apply Force Motion Blur or Pixel Motion Blur to the precomp in the top Comp it blurs the image from the transform movement within the precomp, not the movement on screen. I have already looked at a few tutorials and this seems to be one of those things that is so simple that no one talks about it. Like just click this toggle in this buried menu. The only thing I can think of is to export the precomp and bring it back into the project.
@andrewpach
@andrewpach 3 жыл бұрын
A effect is applied to the layer of your choice - if you chose the precomp to be motion blurred it will blur the entirety of it and its layers inside. You can either keyframe the effect itself in its blur value (so the blur value goes up and down) but that would be tedious. Another way is to use the build-in motion blur property of the entire comp (ctrl+k -> advanced > there you have the shutter amount of the motion blur) but that will limit what you see to this one value. Remember to enable motion blur for the comp itself.

@andrewpach 4 жыл бұрын
From what I know the pre-composition will maintain the blending mode but you can't expect this blending mode to yield the exact same results as the layer had. Just go inside that pre-comp and give the blending mode to the layer again so everything will be as before. Switch the blending mode of your precomp to normal or let it stay as is depending on the situation.

@@andrewpach You see, when I change to precomp editing I cannot see where the remaining objects in the main composition are. This makes for a very frustrating experience because many times I want the objects inside the precomp to align in the main comp. Like for example in Adobe Animate they have the Movie Clip object, which somewhat acts like the precomp but allows you to double click it, graying out the remaining objects but allowing edition in-context. I hoped something like that existed for AE =/

Seems you are just going wrong about it! Just position everything on the original comp and then press CTRL+ALT+C to precomp it. Or just drag and drop it into an existing comp it should fall in place and not changing its position values. If you just drag and drop it from the main comp on the timeline inside an existing comp on the timeline nothing will move. Don't worry it works like it should, just a matter of checking and training a little with it!

As a noob I don't have any clue how to find "Main Comp" manu or "project" menu on top.. so you have two "windows" and I don't have any clue how to find them.
@andrewpach
@andrewpach 4 жыл бұрын
They are always open with the standard and default after effects menu but if you don't see them do not worry! Simply press CTRL+0 (zero) and the project panel will be visible and you will be able to double click on the main comp there. Any windows you don't see can be made visible by going to the "Window" on the top After Effects menu and selecting the according window, like "Project" or " Effect Controls: (none)"

Hey mate, of course. I do have lessons for a beginner on my second, totally about After Effects channel here: kzbin.info/door/iIs_XfIl__ufojb4hO-ETQ and in my premium course for beginners! It would be the perfect one to learn AE from scratch to intermediate user. The link to my course is in the tutorial you watched, here: kzbin.info?v=xLcSAfNAAzw&event=video_description&redir_token=YBEYocp5cOXXM1T0WFFeBCB36uV8MTUwODg4MjMyOEAxNTA4Nzk1OTI4&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.udemy.com%2Faftereffects-beginners-complete%2F%3FcouponCode%3DAwesomeStudentYT

how to close the precompose group without delete it if i need to rearrange all the element?
@andrewpach
@andrewpach 7 жыл бұрын
Just press the little (X) button. You will only delete the composition, if you hit DELETE on the left side in the project window, else it won't get deleted :)

If I was making an edit and wanted to loop it should i precompose then loop it with the remainder of my video?
@andrewpach
@andrewpach 5 жыл бұрын
It's up to you if you want to loop only one object or the entire composition. you could pre-compose it and just put multiple of those pre-compositions on the timeline and you would look everything easily that way :)

@andrewpach
@andrewpach 4 жыл бұрын
Every precomp you make is active in your project panel on the left top side of After Effects. You should be able to access it there. Don't worry no comps get lost, all of them are available to open and possible to put inside your project.

this might be a ridiculous question but how do i undo a precomposition? like if i precomp a clip how do i undo the precomp?
@andrewpach
@andrewpach 3 жыл бұрын
You don't "un-precompose" you just delete a composition. The clip you dragged in will be still available on the left top side of AE in your project window. You can delete that composition from the top left side as well if you want to completely get rid of it.

Brother! i need your help. What's the computer rig you use for your after effects work? I have a new ASUS ROG laptop with GTX1050 4GB DDR5, 16GB RAM i7 9th gen and SSD with a 4k vid my workflow feels like sh%#$t! PLEASE HALP!
@andrewpach
@andrewpach 5 жыл бұрын
Hey Lalo. First off a laptop will mostly nearly always be slow in AE. A 4k display...in a LAPTOP ?! that is a complete overkill and will destroy performance. To be honest ram plays a big role so having 32gb might help but for the most part AE is such a freaking donkey beast that it swallows up anything you throw its way. I must say I have a very similar ASUS ROG (G751J which has 32gb ram, an older i7 and a GTX 980) and it works pretty well with AE. Just make sure to extend the disk cache for adobe and to purge your memory frequently (Edit > Purge > All Memory & Disk Cache). Good luck!
