  Lose Res when animation stops

  Posted by Eric Klassen on January 4, 2007 at 7:27 am

  I can’t figure out why my animations are losing res when they come to a stop. During the animation, all looks clean, then when it stops, the res goes to hell. Anyone know what’s causing this “pixelation” on the following animation? see the opening animation when the curvy logo comes to a stop.

  Thanks in advance,

  Dave,

  It’s a vector logo from Illustrator. I brought it into AE directly as an .ai file. I set the continuously rasterize button to on, and rendered with the best settings. The quicktime file I get looks good, but when I export it out from fcp for the web using QT7 800kbps, I get that jagged look. This doesn’t seem right to me, but I thought it might be a web compression thing. The other QT7 web movies I see out there are super clean so I think there’s something else going on. I’m wondering if there’s a step somewhere I’m missing.

  Any idea for a fix?

  Thanks,
  Eric
