Hey Jacob, could you share the method you discovered? I’m looking for a similar solution.
Thanks in advance,

Hey Lucas, unfortunately I never found a solution. As a workaround, I ended up just making sure to precomp any shape layers before using them in my master comp, so that I have the ability to option-replace later if needed.
That doesn’t help if your comp/animations are already built though. So, another workaround would be to keep your shape layer in the comp, turn off visibility and/or make shy (as Dave suggested), and use it as a parent for your new comp.
Hope this helps,

[Michael Dominic] “after I export the Avid video file is there a way for me see it interlaced”
Import your Avid video file into AE and interpret the footage as interlaced.

Click Update > Advanced Options > uncheck “Remove old Versions”

Have you tried interpreting the footage as interlaced within AE?
Right-click the file in the project window > Interpret Footage > Main > Set “Separate Fields” to either Upper or Lower.

Also, make sure the layers in your pre-comp extend beyond the last frame of your work area. Then you shouldn’t get that ‘blinking’ at the last frame.

You mentioned using object buffers, but I don’t see any in your scene.
You’ll need to set up and export an object buffer sequence from C4D first. Then bring that into your AE comp and use it as a luma matte for your screens.

Are you working at full-res or lower?
Is the white line appearing at the edge of the equirectangular image?Try this: In your footage pre-comp, add the Motion Tile effect (enable mirror edges and increase the output width/height by a couple pixels) or the CC RepeTile effect (set to “unfold” and increase all 4 properties by a couple pixels) to the clip.

Here’s another method you could try:
Make a pre-comp with all expression artwork layers sequenced back to back.
In your main comp, apply a “freeze frame” to the pre-comp at the timecode of whichever expression you want.
From there you can just add new “hold keyframes” at new time-codes whenever you want a new expression.
I’ve attached a couple of example screenshots incase my instructions are confusing.
