Hi,

I’m trying to do, what feels to me should be, a relatively simple animation.

I need to animate a Trim Path around a shape that has been created in Adobe Illustrator. The Illustrator shape has been created using an inner stroke, and so to match the dimensions I need the After Effects shape to also have an inner stroke.

For some reason, in 2024,…

Hi,

I’m getting a strange graphical issue with Premiere Pro where my timeline will “flicker”. Essentially the waveforms within the timeline will flicker in and out of view, or sometimes disappear completely (I can post a video example. Not sure how to do so on this forum.)


Obviously this is a big issue because it means I can’t edit to the waveforms.…

Hi,

I’m pretty much a newbie when it comes to After Effects and I’m sure this is a simple fix but I’d appreciate help in resolving it.

In my project the dark blue hexagon in the bottom right and the middle, turquoise hexagon overlap to create the light blue shape. I have precomposed the light blue shape, and it sits on a separate layer to the dark…

Hi. I’m sure this is a simple fix but I’m new to After Effects and I can’t figure it out.

I’ve got two hexagons, that overlap on two different layers. I’ve used the track matte to create a shape where the two hexagons overlap. How do I then apply the lined pattern just to the new overlap shape?

Any help very much appreciated.

Thanks.
