Back in the 80s, it was called a Streak, pioneered at R/Greenberg Associates by Ken Stytzer and Vincent Giordano. The titles for the movie Superman started the trend. They did it the old-fashioned way,on an animation stand. So that’s part of the story, but not the important part for you…. how to do it. I wish I could help more.

Thanks, Walter, that solves that. I’m still trying to figure out how the Lynda.com instructor keeps AE in the same window as Pr P, and toggles back and forth from one application to the other. However, I’m beginning to suspect it may be that he also gets two windows, he’s just edited it cleanly within the course for ease of viewing. In any event, thanks for the time and the help. Much appreciated.

Thanks. The Lynda.com course/lesson is: Premiere Pro CS6 Effects Workshop with Maxim Jago/Chapter 6/Time Remapping. You can see the “toggle switches/modes” button at 7:20. Here’s the link:

And let me see if I can upload two images, one the lesson version showing the toggle, one my mac, showing both windows.. the result in both cases of clicking “replace with AE composition.”

hope that works…

Hi – Question for Kevin or whomever – Migrating from Media Composer, I currently have CS6, will upgrade to CC once I’m up and running and it makes sense to do so. My graphics card is an AMD Radeon HD 6970M, not Mercury compliant. I want to purchase a graphics card that will work for both CS6 and CC. What do you recommend? I’m a cutter, not an effects person, but as of now, I need to incorporate some light aftereffects and photoshop work into my kit bag. And I work in longform, so sequences can get heavy – lots of layers with color effects, positioning, etc.

iMac 27″ mid 2011, 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
12 mb RAM

Thanks!
Bill

Hi – I’m just starting with AE, doing a tutorial with Digital Tutors, and AE has started to run impossibly slow… System Info: iMac, 27″ mid 2011; 3.4 ghz Intel Core i7 processor. 12GB of RAM. Graphics Card – AMD Radion HD 6970M 2048 MB. 763 GB free on a 2TB SATA disk drive.

Preferences are set at: RAM reserved for other apps: 3 gb
Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously – ON (though OFF makes no difference)
Installed CPUs 8 (don’t know how to change this value)
RAM allocation per background CPU 1.5 gb
Actual CPUs that will be used: 4.

I’m most with “hyperthreading,” etc. Can anyone help? Images take a minute to show up… and make working impossible. thanks!
