Hi there.

A second dedicated ssd for AE is a must. I use a Orico 1TB which sticks to the back of my monitor – see pic, it works beautifully.

In AE, set the cache very high, change the folder to one on the new SSD.
Also, create 2 others for Database Cache and one for Conformed Cache, also on the SSD.

You will see performance improvements.

Hi Oliver,

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 ‘start’ of the effect to the centre of the shape. You can now animate the bend on the timeline.

Regards
Paul

Hi.

 

I’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 & y – you actually need to distort each side to fool the viewer of an illusion.

 

So distort your content like so across the screens in order for it to look straight.
