Thanks again!

Thanks Ted!
Let me ask you then, how do i switch all my AE files from 8 to 16 or 32 bit?
Also, In the render window, in “color managment” you can also choose preserve RBG, should I or it doesn’t really matter as I am rendering RGB?
If not, then “convert to linear light” on or off? not sure if it is necessary if is not a 32 bit file?
Thanks again!

Hello Robert!

I hope you remember you helped me tremendously last week with some scrolling text…But i have the last question for you as I have been trying to do something else without success:

Everything is working fine but the only problem i have now is that i want to speed up the whole thing. So what i did first was to change the speed in my null, the expression was:

rate = 6; //value in px/sec
value – [0,rate*timeToFrames(time)]

and I switched it to this:

rate = 8; //value in px/sec
value – [0,rate*timeToFrames(time)]

But now all the positions of the comps are totally screwed…not idea why???

So what i did is just change the speed by changing the % in time of the pre-comp.But why are the positions changing when i just change the speed of my null? do i have to create a new null of the pre-comp which already have the previous null parented? I actually tried this (making a new null with fatser speed and doing a pre-comp with the other null inside) and didn’t work because all the positions are again, displaced (all the comps are outside the frame now…)

I just like to understand if there is something i didn’t do on the first place…

thanks again!!

hello Robert!
just wanted to let you know the credit scrolling titles are working great thanks to your suggestions, now my final question is:

at the end i have a layer that I want to be scrolling the same way but I want an ease at the end of the movement. Because is parented to the null like all the layers, is stopping very abruptly at the end, how do i do an ease at the end??

Do I have to do a new null with an expression with an ease at the end for just this layer?

the expression i have now is this:

rate = 6; //value in px/sec
value – [0,rate*timeToFrames(time)

THANK YOU!!

[Esther Casas]

Is working great robert, and then…how do you change the expression so the texts scroll faster?

rate = 6; //value in px/sec
value – [0,rate*timeToFrames(time)]

is this 6 a “standard number” i am going to do tests just changing this number, is something else i should be checking when i do this? this number 0?

[Esther Casas]

an another question for you R….i am planning to add some small images through the credits, randomly…and also maybe some small quicktimes..what is the best way to do it? just importing and throwing them in? i am guessing it’s pretty straight fw but before i start i like to make sure i get your advice…as it’s been great!

[Esther Casas]

hey R! not 320, but 20 comps!! 320 will be waaay too many! ha!

thanks for the tip, yes, i think i will make pre-comp of the 20 comps and parent to a null that has the expression. i will let you know how that goes…
not wordy, you are helping me a lot Robert, be as wordy as you need to be, hope i am not making you to be more wordy than normal…
