After Effects and Adobe Anywhere

[Todd Kopriva]

After Effects CC (12.1), which is due for release in a few weeks, has the first phase of Anywhere integration for After Effects.

In this version, you can log into a production, share compositions in that production, and collaborate with multiple other people in other locations on those compositions.

This first phase for After Effects does not include the remote rendering feature that the Premiere Pro integration offers.

Of course, all of this depends on you having an Anywhere server setup (collaboration hub, Mercury Streaming Engine) onsite, within your firewall.

Hi Todd…

Thanks for the reply….

So essentially, 1 can log in and create comps from footage that is on the server and exposed to the production.

What happens at render time?

I don’t know about the Premiere Pro remote rendering, so I don’t know how this would differ.

Just need some clarification…..

thanks!

Footage must be accessible to each local workstation.

The After Effects Anywhere integration has nothing (yet) to do with changing how rendering works.

But you can build comps from Anywhere production ftg?

Save the comps to the production….and then machines with local access can render the comps?
