That will do it. And on your PC I believe the cut, copy, and paste shortcuts should be
Ctrl+X, Ctrl+C & Ctrl+V

Sure, select the effect in the effect controls. Hit Command+C (copy).
In your timeline select all of the layers you want to have the effect
and hit Command+V (paste)

A quick way to select multiple layers in the timeline is to group them by color. Then you right click on the color group that you want and “select label group”

Damon,

I find it helpful when creating graphics in PS or AI to add a couple of blank layers to the document before importing to AE. That way if you want to modify your image at a later date your not changing the total layer #. Not much help for you now but next time…

Works like a charm!

Thanks again

Hi Dan,

Thanks for your time.

There is only 1/2 rotation on the null. Basically just flipping a layer to reveal another layer behind it.

The expression seems to work if I enable it while the current time indicator is
a few seconds into the comp.
Once I move the time indicator to the start of the timeline, I get the error.

Here is an AEP-

Im running a blackmagic intensity one one of our suites feeding to a LG widescreen from AE with no issues. It does seem to slow everything down a bit when the output is enabled though.

After Effects lacks a lot of the best compression features that actual compression software utilizes. For that reason most people only render lossless files from AE like Animation or Prores. Then take that file into compression software like Adobe Media Encoder,Apple Compressor, or sorenson squeeze to compress your H.264 video.

If your color mode is not RGB in the PSD it won’t separate the layers on import. Is that your problem?

Hi Adam,

Check out this tutorial over at Video Copilot where the camera drops
through layers of “ground” to reveal an underground garage. Sounds
like your trying to do a similar effect-
