It is not essential to memorize every detail. However being active and staying active is important.
You should also be proficient to a similar degree with the other Adobe programs. You will constantly need them or the skills they require even when working in AE.Learning to be dynamic in problem solving will always be necessary, both to craft a production and to avoid being stymied when problems arise.

You can also find expressions and other scripts online. Which you can use, learn or modify.
Dive in, yes it will confound you at times but AE helps you debug errors.

The beam effect is excellent. And when you learn to pick whip expressions across layers and across compositions you are just beginning to understand the power.
Look for Angie Taylor tutorials. She patiently explains expressions and shows how simple things build fast into very incredible results.

Then look at layer properties, effects and expressions to see if you inadvertently added something or activated an expression or feature.
With expressions typing can take many forms.
If you find nothing ( and perhaps before you do the above, is the font you want to use in the same folder on the same drive as the ones which work ?

The cause of the “disappearing clip markers” is not yet defined.
Without furtherinsight the problem is left unresolved for others who will seek out this thread.
My guess is system overload.

Prelude is something I have not worked much with. But some tout it as the way to cut for “newsies” who need to hose it out the door fast.
It is not very Adobe-Like, so it may work for you to cut before sending to Premiere.

Why didn’t you just reexport it into FCP? Or as an EDM to convert for Avid ? It shouldn’t be that hard.
I’m not quite sure what you are doing with the stack as it is , it just looks like a hard way to work. And nO I would not Start with AE but I would finish with it other than titling. It handles complexity better.
And for the work that it looks like you are doing some clip time remapping looks like it could help.You did not say anything about your drives or the busses they are on. And I am wondering why you are not looking at a hardware monitor and even setting up error logging to trace the problem.
You have your Adobe resources set to use the maximum RAM, Your drives and busses are fast enough.
and your GPU is crunching the hard stuff. So other than some simple setting I do not see why the Marker panel is getting lost.A brief search showed that one clip marker issue (markers dissappearing) is solved by opening prefs> media> and making sure ” Write clip markers to XMP” is checked.

A dump file from Activity Monitor would cut through the parsiflage.
And Did you check to see what you have the Adobe prefs set to use? Are you using a CUDA capable GPU ?
I started earlier to make comments about workflow between news room Avid users and Premiere users.
But I cut them out.And for what you are doing I would be choosing After Effects anyway.

You say your machine has the resources. But the videos tell a different story.
I think you are working with too much at once for your machine.
Try shying half the layers and see how it works.I still think you should open a system monitor to see how the hardware is actually dealing with it.

May 7, 2016 at 5:18 pm in reply to: Masks Edges Appear in Video Output On Some ScreensAre there sub sequences with masks? Are all clips at the same frame rate? If there is time remapping the Seguence render may be pulling data from the incorrect sub sequence frame.
Scrup the seq and see if the outline is in every nearby frame or just some.
