Tom, first I want to thank you very much for your help, but I don’t think we’re on the same page.
That pre-comp that holds the replaceable media is supposed to be an adjustment layer and that matte is there to make the adjustment layer only affect the layer beneath inside that matte area (inside blue stroke).
If you add an image/video beneath it all…

Tom,
What I’m trying to do is what I show on that video on my reply to you.
Here’s the AE project for you to check.
Thank you very much for taking a look at this!

Yes Roland, that’s why I changed my approach by putting an image inside a pre-comp so that I could the replace it with an adjustment layer on Pr that could kept the same effects/transform animations but with no luck 😔

Hi Tom!
What I’m trying to do is use that .mgrt to scale the video on the layer underneath as an adjustment layer usually does.
By exporting the .mgrt with the adjustment layer it didn’t work so I used the Replacement Media feature to replace the media with all of the effects/transformation animations with an adjustment layer on Pr which also didn’t…

Hi guys!

I’m building a .mgrt on AE that relies on an adjustment layer, but premiere can’t read the adjustment layer inside the .mgrt.

It’s something like a magnifying glass with a custom shape based on the adjustment layer custom mask controlled by Nulls.

I tried exporting the .mgrt with an image with all of the necessary effects as a placeholder…

Sorry, was out and only saw this now :/
Collect files:

Using Collect Files to Share an After Effects Project

Have you tried Collect Files? If it works at least you’ll have a backup so you can restart AE or the machine .

If you use adio Waves you can set “Parameteres are set at” to “Birth” each new wave will take the shape of the current mask shape at that time. If you set it to “Each Frame” the wave shape will change every frame to the shape of the mask shape. So you only have to change the mask shape over time to make the waves change accordingly.
In your case I…

Someone may be able to better explain this but in my experience, diferent video players will give you slight different color.
This has been a loooooong discussion all over the internet.

I belive that there’s nothing you could do. If you set your project to don’t mannage color profiles and you use the right colors, then I think that’s it :/

Your composition viewer is set to 4 views, just change it to 1 view on that buttom at the bottom right that reads “4 views”

Hi!

I’m using a mask (only one mask exists in effects layer) to produce a wall where partiles bounce off.

Everything works nice (pic 1) untill I add a Layer Map to change the particles shape from the standard red squares to whatever I want them to be (coins in this case). It’s like the mask somehow changes it’s proportion (makes it bigger in this…
