    Just to confirm… you have imported an image sequence into After Effects, and wish to simply remove on frame of the playback?

    If I am correct in my assumption, there’s a couple of ways, but I’d recommend going to the frame just BEFORE the frame you want removed. Hit Command+shift+D (or control + Shift + D on PC) to duplicate the layer around that point in the timeline… What that does is it cuts the clip from the original layer where the timeline marker is, and in the newly created layer, it picks up right at that point and continues until the end of the clip.

    From here, move the timeline marker to just AFTER the frame you want removed, then hit option + [ (or alt + [ on PC). Then, you just have to drag the clips together so there is no gap between the ending of the first layer, and the beginning of the second layer.

    Hope that is what you needed to know.
