October 16, 2013 at 7:15 pm in reply to: Why are parts of my full render looking corrupt, but not when I render in small parts?Okay yes I just tried rendering lossless again and the full video looks good. It’s when I choose H.264 format that everything messes up. Whether I am rendering as H.264 direct from AE or using the lossless render and then compressing it to H.264…same result (error’d frames).
What other preset can I use? Vimeo and Youtube both want H.264.

October 16, 2013 at 6:48 pm in reply to: Why are parts of my full render looking corrupt, but not when I render in small parts?Ive tried rendering directly from AE CS6 and AME CS6. Both of them i’ve tried rendering uncompressed quicktime animation, as well as H.264 (which is my final destination since I plan to upload to youtube and vimeo).
Why would something like this be happening?

October 16, 2013 at 6:34 pm in reply to: Why are parts of my full render looking corrupt, but not when I render in small parts?The frame is really just a normal picture of a man and it has two words of text over it. Thats it. It shouldn’t look like someone hit my screen with a hammer. I cleared AE disk cache but no luck.
Someone please help! I’m desperate to solve this!

August 23, 2012 at 7:24 pm in reply to: Possible to track sky with single foreground object?The problem is the guy in the foreground is throwing his arm around a lot and doing a whole bunch of body movements so I’m whipping the camera around to keep him in frame. So he’s not exactly static, but I do like the idea of doing a camera solve and then pushing the track back further in z-space to get closer to the way the sky moves.
What did you mean by unlinking the layer so it does not move? Is there a tutorial for this? I would love to learn how to create a track offset but I’m not sure how.
Also how can I use one tracking spline, the instant it goes off frame or gets covered by the subject I add in a new spline elsewhere and continue? What im asking is how can I go about doing the offset tracking like you recommend?

July 8, 2012 at 10:28 pm in reply to: How to do a film-like fade where the darks get brighter first and then midtones get brighter?Walter, perhaps I misunderstood how the effect I want actually works so here’s an example:
The fade is seen at 0:03 and 0:24 and throughout. Now that I think about it gradient wipe might be what I need but it still doesn’t look like the filmic fades im seeing in the video. Perhaps it’s the vignette animation? (if there is one).

What im finding is that gradient wipe does the opposite of what I want. When I animate completion from 100 to 0, the highlights reveal themselves first instead of last. Any thoughts?

June 29, 2012 at 11:46 pm in reply to: How do I get a Premiere file perfectly imported into AE…for color grading?What is “exporting via dynamic link”? I know about selecting clips in PPro and using “replace with AE composition” which works fantastic but I’m not sure how safe it is, I think its a form of dynamic linking if im not mistaken. Is exporting via dynamic link an option I can press somewhere?
How do you make a copy of your layers in PPro? Do I need to create 6 new tracks and copy+paste my clips into them? And what is the purpose of doing this rather than just using your main layers?
Lastly, its funny you speak of Davinci Lite because I plan to export via xml into Resolve for my next project too! That program looks powerful.
