  • Adjusting AE template

    Posted by Lisa Dare on September 9, 2012 at 7:35 pm

    Hi, I bought an AE template that has flying video placeholders in it. I would like to pause the placeholders so my videos can continue to play for an extended period of time while the placeholder is at its largest size. The designer told me to keyframe the camera layer, but will not give me any details. I’m not sure how to set the keyframes or change the layer to accommodate the extra duration, or how the process will affect the other layers of flying titles etc. Would appreciate any advice!

    Hi Lisa.
    If you select camera layer and hit “u”, all keyframed properties will drop down. You need to set up new keyframes when your placeholder is in the biggest size and copy them forward to video end.
    If this is an advice you are asking for…

    Yes, all other keyframes need to be shifted ahead on time spent on video. If there are many comps and animations to manipulate with, you can try to timeremap those comps.
