8000×1000
Hello, I have a client that wants me to render out to 8000×1000 pixels. I thought the maximum AE could handle was 4000? Has this changed at all?
cheers,

Hi Lee,
The theoretical maximum comp size is 30,000 by 30,000 pixels. We frequently do comps larger than 8,000 by 1,000 for multi-displays systems. The larger your comp is, the more RAM each frame will use, and the shorter your previews will be. You can also definitely expect some lengthy render times.
Also, you might want to find out how you are expected to ultimately deliver the animation, because different playback systems will have different requirements.

We work at 7000 across quite alot…it works fine but everything takes AGES! you hit a RAM limit somewhere not far above that size, but I guess if AE went 64-bit you might have more headroom..
