-Animation is good – high quality.
-Photo-JPEG at 89-91% or so is good, slightly lower quality, but smaller file size (good).
-I’ve heard PNG is good, but I haven’t used it yet.
-If you work with FCP, ProRes would be a good option, but search the COW for ProRes — there used to be a slight glitch with ProRes and AE, as reported on http://www.capria.tv a while back.
– Apple Intermediate is another option, yes.If you work with Windows (or with others who use Windows), then Animation, PNG or Photo-JPEG would be the choices.

Tried applying the wiggle expression with a low frequency?

Hm.
Tried rendering to different codecs?
Tried different source footage?
Tried saving to a TGA sequence?
Tried switching off all effects? -
Yep. When you consider what your time is worth, buying models is often an excellent option.

Hmm … yes. Adding blur and glow, but only to the streaks might be good. That could be done by duping the streaked layer, blurring it, then setting its mode to “add” or “screen”. This way the cars would not be blurred as well.
Now if the camera is locked off, and you have some time, you could draw some masks where you want the streaks and use the stroke effect to get sharp streaks. Maybe dupe and offset them a bit to get extra copies to save time. Just a thought …

Heh … check the original poster’s name on the other thread. 🙂

Effect>time>echo is one way. You might have to make the trails, precomp the footage, then speed it up.

The best way is to buy one from a place that sells royalty-free meshes, like this one:
https://www.the3dstudio.com/product_details.aspx?id_product=13999Pick a format that’s compatible with Invig, that is, one that Invig can import.
Googling “royalty-free” “diamond” and “3D” might get you somewhere. Maybe add “DXF”.

AE automatically defaults to 30fps for imported sequences. Did that happen here?

Fair enough. I guess we don’t have the whole picture yet.
