<p>A second dedicated ssd for AE is a must. I use a Orico 1TB which sticks to the back of my monitor &#8211; see pic, it works beautifully.</p>
<p>In AE, set the cache very high, change the folder to one on the new SSD.<br />Also, create 2 others for Database Cache and one for Conformed Cache, also on the SSD.</p>
<p>You will see performance improvements.</p>

<p>The key here, is to use a Shape Layer. Add your shape, then move the anchor point (pan behind) to the centre of the shape. Add a CC Bend It effect, move the &#8216;start&#8217; of the effect to the centre of the shape. You can now animate the bend on the timeline.</p>
<p>Regards <br />Paul</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve done this before and it becomes a hassle. When pixels flow from one LED to the other, they look strange because they follow the x &amp; y &#8211; you actually need to distort each side to fool the viewer of an illusion.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So distort your content like so across the screens in order for it to look straight.</p>
