basic timewarp question
Hi, this is probably a simple problem that I’m having because I’m new to after effects but I’m trying to slow down a clip I’ve imported from premiere.
its a 10 second clip that I’m trying to slow down using the timewarp plugin but instead of slowing down the clip, the footage is getting cut off instead. At 100% i see the full clip, anything lower and the footage starts getting shortened.
Sorry for the dumb question in advance, i’ve been trying to follow how it was shown in a video tutorial but I cannot figure out what i’m doing any different to not make this remotely work.

i’ve tried setting ‘stretch’ to 200%, doing the precomp thing by hitting ctrl+shift+c, tried prerenering too but still the same problem. The footage simply starts at an earlier point and no matter what I can’t get the actual part that I want slowed down to show in the timeline.

Perhaps you haven’t extented the composition to match the longer length. Here’s an example of a super slow motion yet all frames are fully retained. Keep in mind, it was created for a timewarp 18fps and has timestretches in the output, so adjust accordingly in your project.

thanks for the help!
I tried pre-compose again and selecting ‘move all attributes to new composition’ option allowed me to adjust the time and control where in the clip the footage would slow down.
I’m glad I went through the hassle too btw, the footage rendered perfectly and they’re so smooth that you’d think it was ramped on the camera!
