    I finally got it to work. I broke up the project by camera angle and rendered each individual camera angle as it’s own comp and then combined the rendered files in one comp.

    I just updated the file on vimeo, same link new video. Thanks again for all your help. I am glad there that creative cow exits and that there are people like you wiling to help.

    I have a Windows 7 PC, Ae CC 2014, with GPU hardware accelerator turned on in Ae and Media Encoder. It’s strange that what once took 3 hours now takes 120? I’ll keep playing with.

    Thanks so much the help though. I really appreciate it.

    Ok, so now the render is taking over 120 hours to complete?

    The last time I rendered the project it only took about 3 hours. The only setting that’s changed since then is the ramp down setting?

    Do you have any suggestions? Thanks

    Wow! That did the trick! Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it. I’ve been trying to figure this out for almost a week now. I’ll post the final result in a day or so, once it renders.

    I’ve done that too, with the same result. I’ll upload some screen shots of my settings tomorrow when I get back to the office. I’m sure I’m missing something.

    I am using square and I’ve tried ramp up and ramp down, but that’s where I am having trouble. When I’ve tried ramp up and ramp down the animation doesn’t complete the cycle. It doesn’t end at 100%. NO matter where I place the final key frame, the animation ends with the letters not all at the same Z position.

  • Dave, Thank you for your replies and help. I came up with a work around. When I originally linked from Pr to Ae, I decieded to change a few clips in Ae, but after the clip changes I realized those new clips needed some three way color correction. So what I did to solve my issue was: In Ae, I exported my project to Pre Pro; this allowed me to see all my individual clips again and let me make some touch ups to my clip colors. After I fixed my colors and applied a Lumetri look to my overall video, I went back to Ae, turned off all the video clips (but left the text animations on) saved it and than dragged the project from Ae to Pr and whoala! I can see and edit my individual clips now and still edit just the text in Ae.

  • Thanks Dave. I tried rending out just the animated text from Ae but for some reason it’s not in sync. I don’t know why. I may just try rendering my video out from Pr, and adding it to Ae and doing the titles there as a last step as you mentioned. The reason I can’t do a overall color grade yet is that I am working with several different clips from multiple shoots that need individual tweeks.

  • Greg,

    An Adobe tech helped me resolve this issue. Please follow these steps:

    The tech had me open Pre Pro CC and go to “help” and click “sign-out”. When you do that a pop-up appears saying that: signing out will deactivate the following software on this computer unless you sign in again; following with the icon for each Adobe CC app i have installed.

    Next the tech had me open Pre Pro CS6, which upon opening askes you to sign in which I did. Once Pre Pro CS6 was open, The tech had me check under “help” to see if the the option “deactivate” was available or greyed out. For me, It was greyed out.

    Next the tech had me close Pre Pro CS6 and open it again and check “help” to see if deactivate was still greyed out; and it was still greyed out.

    Next the tech had me close Pre Pro CS6 and open Pre Pro CC which prompts you to sign in. After Pre Pro CC launched the tech had me close it and open Pre Pro CS6 again too check under the “help” tab again and confirm if “deactivate” was still greyed out or black (executable). This time “deactivate” was black.

    Next the tech had me launch Encore CS6 tto see if it still required a serial number. This time Ecore opened as it should, without requiring a serial number.

    I hope this helps you.
