  • transform animation jitter….please help!!

    Hi Guys,

    When animating simple masked shapes/or even imported illustrator files in after affects 6.5 pro, and on viewing the resultant animation closely/carefully :), the ram preview shows jittery edges aroung the shapes, the motion is not silky smooth, ease keyframes, motion blur do reduce this effect, but does not completly eliminate it!!

    I find that position, and rotation animations on vector shapes against contasting backgrounds bring out this probelem very clearly…?but in some cases , comps with low contrast and blurred edges do show this slight
    jitter on the edges too, but I need to watch the animation carefully?

    Finally I find that medium paced transform animations are the most affected, very fast moves or very slow moves seem not to show this probelem?!!

    please advise , am i doing something wrong in my animations, or have I missed some important preference/setting in ae?

    my system spec.pentium 3GHz\2GB Ram …

    Thanks.

    Have you activated Continuously rasterize/Collapse Transformations switch on vector content?

    Yes…but What I really meant was animating shapes with relatively sharp edges…
