"Crop Comp to Region of Interest" but for Solids?

There isn’t a way to resize a Solid layer in After Effects similar to how you can resize a composition using the “Crop Comp to Region of Interest” method, is there? I know I can add a mask to a Solid layer to crop it, or I can go into the Solid’s settings and change the dimensions there, but what I’m wondering is whether there might be a way to…

You might be able to use the CC Burn Film effect to accomplish a similar look as the transition in the example you posted:

I agree with Andy that a matte involving a circular wipe and an evolving noise texture would probably get you even closer, but CC Burn Film is in that wheelhouse and is probably easier.

Reply to Proxy workflow and choosing destination for proxy files

Yep, that’s what I’m sticking with; thanks. I’m not sure why the other option even exists. I guess you can use it, but with more limited options, I’m not sure why.

Hey, Nicolas!

Thank you so much for the suggestion; I will definitely check that out. I was really deep into a heavy project at the time or I would have tried it as soon as you posted!

Trimming down huge DNxHR source files for delivery of media-managed project?

I need to send a project to another editor but some of my source files are absolutely huge, while the sections I actually used in the edit from these sources are only a few seconds in some cases. So, I’d like to trim these source files down before I send them, but keep the edit intact. The upload/download times will ridiculous otherwise.

Not a keyboard shortcut exactly, but scrolling the mouse wheel works for me.

In my line of work, we have to capture UHD video at 59.94 fps from an HDMI source almost daily. Our current setup has the AJA Kona 4 as the capture card and we capture directly into Adobe Premiere to DNxHR in Windows 10. This works, but because it has some drawbacks (needs an HDMI-to-SDI converter, and also needs an additional peripheral to hear…
