When you ask how they were made, what do you mean?
If you mena what programs were used, The FARO one,I belive was made with pIllusion and a compositing program, probably After Effects, though i don’t know for sure.
Where is there a logo called Reklamer? Maybe I missed it, but I don’t see it.

Fairly seamlessly – if you prepare for it
a major caveat is that mac filenames often don’t include the suffix like .psd, .ai, .jpg – so you have to rename them and locate them by hand in AE.
Also look out for (and convert) audio file that have trouble on the PC. Doesn’t happen to often, but I’ve run into it a few times.
If you plan on working in both platforms, conform to what’s best for the PC -I hate to admit it, but Mac’s (And please don’t gloat you “mac daddys”) handle stuff like this a lot better than PC’s.

Crud. I wanted you to test importing it into another project and see if the trouble happened. Also, if it was only happening to that one file, then it wasn’t the program, it was the file. That’s why I said to hold off on reinstalling. Someone else might have had a better suggestion.
If you registered your copy of AE, online, when you got it then you can just copy and paste the exact serial number from your account at the adobe website:
https://store.adobe.com/store/customerregistration/your_account.jhtml
If not, register it now, and then check out this page:
https://www.adobe.com/support/cfcomp.html
It says: Register the current versions of your eligible Adobe product and receive complimentary, person-to-person support on issues related to installation and product defects.
call them at the number 206-675-6310
I got it from this page:
https://www.adobe.com/support/phonenumbers/main.html
After Effects 6 is still supported according to this page:
https://www.adobe.com/support/dtpproducts_list.html
Hope that helps.

After trashing (or before – I’d probably try this first), first try importing the original file into a blank project – Go to File > Import > File, and then just navigate to your old AE Project. Once it’s imported into AE, copy all of the layers from your comp, and put them in a new comp. See if that works.
Then try reinstalling.

1) Have you shut down and restarted?
2) Have you tried it in a different project than the one you are working in (Sometimes files get currupt and AE just bugs out)? You can always import your current project into a new one to avoid losing your work.
3) Have you trashed your user preferences – on my Win XP computer they are here:
C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorApplication DataAdobeAfter EffectsPrefs
You need to tell windows to show your hidden files. The delete the AE preferences TXT document – AE will create it again as soon as you start AE.
Not sure where these files are on Mac.
3) Have you tried reinstalling AE?
4) Have you checked for viruses?
Not that I have any knowledge on this… but give it a shot. I’d wait to hear from someone else before trying # 4 and 5.

If you want to do it legally, then you either write it, buy a program like Acid (loops) or go to a website like https://www.flyinghands.com/ where they sell good royalty-free background music cheap (like $29 or $39). I am using their stuff for a project right now – good selection with a great price tag and no restrictions on use (unless it’s for TV or film – but then you just have to fill out a cue sheet. No extra charge.

I’m in the same boat, but I find quicktime is better. But that has to do with your workflow, and what they can see. If they can’t see quicktimes, then you find a format they can read.
But if you upload stuff to the web regularly (which I do, as well), you need a program like squeeze or cleaner to make it web ready.
AE renders compression very slowly, and since it can’t really analyze the info as it renders, it doeasn’t do a great job of making it look clean.
Programs like Cleaner and Squeeze are designed to do just that, and while i can’t speek for cleaner (but am betting this is the case) they work quickly.

If that’s the case, keep your reel online in more than one format.
I would say at least do it as Quicktime and WMV. Maybe even MPEG-1 too.
