September 25, 2014 at 8:14 pm in reply to: pixel aspect ratio setting for PAL delivery

I’m new to PAL, but I’m pretty sure PAL does have a different pixel aspect ratio, given that both premiere’s presets for PAL are not 1 and the CCIR 601 specs indicate the same.

You sir, are correct. I have no idea how that happened. Thank you so much!

By playing in After Effects I mean Ram Preview. Screencap of the relevant comp and disappearing layer:

Here’s video capture of how it plays in the ram preview, and how I want it play when as a precomp/render…

Correct Ram Preview

Here’s my AE window for the precomp:

And here’s the video result:

precomped/rendered

Hoping I got enough info here. It’s really frustrating because I can’t find any reason for this layer not to display. Collapse transformations is on in these caps but I have the same problem when it’s off (in both the comp and the precomp).

Thanks again!

Also as an update, there is no permutation of collapse transformations I could try that seems to fix my problem.

Thanks for your response, Dan.

Is there another approach that I’m missing that would be simpler?

Wayne,

As you probably know ram is probably the main performance bottleneck in PP for most users. That said, the jump from 28 to 32 may not be a hugely noticeable boost unless you’re someone who uses multiple adobe programs simultaneously. If you work with, say, After Effects open alongside PP, the two programs are splitting ram. In that case you’d be boosting them from an effective 14gb each to 16, and you probably would notice the change.

Hope that helps,

Clay

October 23, 2012 at 6:38 pm in reply to: Source Monitor In/Out point weirdness working with multiple clips/interpret footage

Experimenting more with it, I notice =when I use my workaround to go to another clip and go back to the one that wasn’t registering my in/out points that it is updating with the in/out points.

It seems like Premiere is registering my in/out points on the first try, it’s just not displaying them in the source monitor until I go to another clip and come back. So this is probably a bug…

Trying to bump because I still haven’t found a solution.

October 10, 2012 at 10:30 pm in reply to: How to make a voice sound like it’s coming over the telephone in post using AE CS5 sound tools?

I am by no means an expert and I don’t normally use After Effects for sound, but this might help you get started.

For the phone effect you want to create an EQ filter so only 400-1k is coming out. Narrowing the bands even more will heighten the effect. Parametric EQ is the effect but I don’t know how it works in AE.

For the room echo add the reverb effect and play with the wet/dry controls. You may have some success going to a negative reverb as well.

Hope that helps,
Clay
