  5 minute AE and PP sequence taking 10 hours to render!

  Posted by Camille Katz on December 11, 2012 at 1:57 pm

  Hi,

  I hope someone can help me please.
  I imported a short 5 min AE composition with hardly any effects just some background color changes and 7 cc particle explosions into Premier Pro with some music i made.
  Then when i tried to render the premier pro sequence in h264 360px youtube size it first told me that it will take 10 minutes then it said 4 minutes remaining and suddenly went up up up to 20 minutes then 4 hours and finally 10 hours! i had to cancel it.
  What am i doing wrong? Is it normal that something like this takes 10 hours to render??
  Is there a way to make it go faster?

  Thank you a lot in advance,

  Camille

  Render times can be highly variable. We know nothing about the effects youre using other than CC particle, we know nothing about your computer system, GPU, and so on.

  Yes, After Effects is known to recalculate render time like that if the file starts off with few or no effects and then hits a section with 8 layers.

  One of the best things to do is watch your CPU temp. Modern processors will throttle speed (slow down) if they aren’t in their optimal temp range. That’s external of your project or available hardware.
