  • dublicate compositions – everything except background missing

    Posted by Tamara Reer on December 11, 2014 at 2:29 pm

    I am such a beginner in after effects and I have purchased a template and now i want to copy only part of the composition and paste it at the end of the timeline to get a longer clip. I have dublicated the composition, added it at the right position in the timeline in the slider animation and then added keyframes (position and destination?) for the camera as it was in my template. Unfortunately the different compositions were one over the other. Then I have added a 3d level in the animation slider and everything in my dublicated compositions disappeared except for the background. The rest of the composition is fine.

    Do you know what is wrong…
    It would be so great if you could help me

    With out seeing the hierarchy of the template you purchased, it’s impossible to tell you exactly what you need to do extend it.

    You could try contacting the author of the composition and ask him. If that doesn’t work, I’d be willing to take a look at the composition. Upload it to a file sharing service—send me a link at johnnycuevas@netscape.net
