  • Renders Just One Frame

    Hi,
    I am trying to render a composition. It renders one frame. It’s 30 seconds long, so it’s not a monster clip. I tried rendering is as an AVI and Quicktime movie, and get the same results.
    When I view the composition settings, it shows the duration as 30s (0;00;30;00).

    The software doesn’t seem overly friendly….

    Rendering Help Would Be Appreciated!

    Ae only renders frames between the markers on the timeline so if these markers are together you will only get one frame.

    I would say Ae is pretty good one the whole and well worth learning though IMO some areas are not so good – most notably the motion controls ……..

    ………….. just my tuppence worth.
