After effects project for website

I am new to creating websites and I wanted to add a small after effects video to my site, but am having issues coming up with the right settings so that is loads fast and looks good web. I have a comp that is 787x459. It is at 29.97fps which I am pretty sure where my problem is. I need a swf file for the site along with the script. What is the best way to export this 3 second project so it loads fast and looks good?
Hopefully I supplies enough info, if not let me know what you need.
Thanks
-Scott

I think this is the code you are speaking of. Is there something in the code that I can edit to remove the player controls?

Can Watch Folder watch for After Effects project files?

I set up a watch folder in Media Encoder but it only appears to pick up or watch for video and audio files. is there a way to set it to watch for After Effects project folders?

No, just media files (movie files).

New After Effects project file for download

New After Effects project file for download:
http://marko-stojkovic.blogspot.com/p/animation_03.html
and more on: http://www.marko-stojkovic.blogspot.com/p/animation_03.html

Not that I'm aware of. I think the largest one I've ever made was around 98mb. At that point, the file became way too cumbersome, and I ended up splitting up the project more efficiently into multiple project files. There may be a limit, but if not, then it would probably be any file size limits imposed by your OS.

Make an edit to an After Effects Project

I have an After Effects project to introduce a new logo. Someone built it for us, but out logo has changed slightly. We cannot reach the designer who did it originally, I just need to replace the PNG he used with our new one without changing any animation or effects. Is there a way to do this?

If you open the project and import your new asset all you need to do is find the layer containing the footage you want to replace. Once you find that footage, locate it in the Project panel and select it there. Observe the size of the image. Make sure that your new image is the same size. If necessary resize it in Photoshop. Now, with the original footage selected in the time line move to the Project panel and select the new footage. You then hold down the Alt/Option key and simply drag the new footage to the timeline and it will replace the original.
Problems arise when the replacement footage is a different size than the original, but other than that, things should work just fine. It may even be helpful to open the original file in Photoshop and drag your new file on top if the original so you can properly adjust the size.

HELP! My After Effects project is complete, but when I render out and playback the video is a lot faster then the original playback.

I have finished my After Effects project. The project includes a lot of text and fade ins and outs and looks perfect in the playback. But once I render and playback with Quicktime the video does not look the same. The animations are very jumpy. Please help!
Thanks,

Hey David,
Also, my AE comp is 29.97, but i have four other comps in that one and they're 23.97 fps.
It seems like that would be the likely culprit. Is there a specific reason those comps (which are, I assume, nested inside the 29.97 one?) are 23.976? Do they contain 23.976fps footage? Mixing of comps, video and different frame rates can often cause juddery playback after rendering, as the interpolation of the frame rates to the master render frame rate happens without any interaction on the user's part. But AE gives many different options (and techniques, everyone has their own) to assist with getting the frame rates and speeds more aligned so the final frame rate is perfect for them all. It takes a little planning, that's all.
Let me know, I'll be glad to help if this is the issue.

Encore DVD 2.0 on Windows: Composition background color of dynamically linked After Effects projects

Hello,
I used Adobe Dynamic Link to import an After Effects project, and I saw that in Encore the background color of a composition is set to black even though it is defined with another value in After Effects.
I had to open the project in AE and place a solid layer with the desired color behind all other layers.
What are the causes for this behaviour? Did I do something wrong or is it a bug?
Best regards,
Christian Kirchhoff

The composition background is transparent. It has per se no color and does not react to blendmodes and such. It's imaginable that Encore resets it to black for whatever reason (wouldn't know, as I design my menus always with full frame backgrounds to begin with). Still, I would consider it a bug regardless, so please fiel away:

After Effects demo for Mac OS X missing Cylore Particle World plugin

Greetings,
I am using the After Effects demo for Mac OS X. The tutorials I want to follow require Cyclore plugins that are suppossed to come with After Effects, but I can't find them.
Thanks

They are not included with the demo because of licensing restrictions. You can go to the Cycore website and download the demos.

Getting After Effects project properties and metadata programatically

Hi,
I'm building a render-farm and I'd like to extract some of the adobe after effects project fields from an .aep or .aepx file. To me it makes more sense to send the start and end frames to be rendered to each individual machine rather than depend on the shared folder feature. If this is possible, the project metadata in projects saved as xml doesn't seem to contain this information in plain text.
If there is a command line tool that can scan an AE project and print out information such as fps, duration, compositions, that would be perfect.
Thank you,
Conrado

Mylenium -
I found the information I needed - this is a huge one for me, since I organize all of my projects using Bridge - I just discovered that in Bridge, if you go into the XMP Metadata by right-clicking the .mov file, the window which opens has a Tab view - the second from the end is Advanced. If you then roll open the Schema entry, under creatorAtom:aeProjectLink (struct), lo and behold, there sits the project name with the full path!
This is huge, in terms of being able to pinpoint the project which created the final output on my system.

After Effects project file size max?

Hey guys,
Anyone know if there's a critical mass with an after effects project file? For example, I have a 6 minute film I'm working on with hundreds of precomps. Is there a time where there's too much going on in the project file? I'm versioning like crazy, but I was just wondering.

Not that I'm aware of. I think the largest one I've ever made was around 98mb. At that point, the file became way too cumbersome, and I ended up splitting up the project more efficiently into multiple project files. There may be a limit, but if not, then it would probably be any file size limits imposed by your OS.

HELP: My Videohive After Effects project is rendering artifacts! AE CS6

Hi all,
HP-HPE 510t
i7 2600 @ 3.4GHz
16GB Ram
Windows 8 x64bit
Nvidia GTX 660 Ti
I purchased a Videohive After Effects project with motion gfx and video, and it is rendering artifacts in two places.
I'm exporting Quicktime + animation, tried + PNG, and + photo jpeg but all with the same results.
I even contacted the author but he cannot explain why either. The interesting thing is, it renders beautifully without any artifacts in AE.
Only on the export render do I see the black silhouette artifacts. Below are some photos of what I mean.
Please help? i'm trying to export the highest quality for youtube and am going to H.264 the lossless version.
It looks correct in AE:

But with black artifacts in lossless render?

Thank Rick,
Only reason that I'm using photobucket instead of the built-in image embeddor (camera icon), is because it doesn't seem to be working for me. All I get is an empty dialog box, tried also with video but that one seems to be working properly.
maybe ill try firefox.
any solutions for the artifacts??
My output module settings so far have been..
tried:
1) Quicktime + Animation (lossless) quality 100
2) Quicktime + photo jpg
3) Quicktime + PNG (lossless) quality 100
4) Quicktime + H.264 30mbps
tried rendering again with "Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously" turned off...still getting artifacts only on these text offset animation frames.
still looks perfect while in after effects.. I restarted my computer, I cannot figure this out.
Help!

Hi I'm thinking of buying Adobe After Effects CC for my MacBook Pro. But I am worried it won't work. Here are my specs 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB Ram, 1333 MHz DDR3,13-inch (1280 x 800) are my displays and I'm up to date with latest software.

Hi I'm thinking of buying Adobe After Effects CC for my MacBook Pro. But I am worried it won't work. Here are my specs 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB Ram, 1333 MHz DDR3,13-inch (1280 x 800) are my displays and I'm up to date with latest software. I need to know if this will work on this Mac and or if there is any other After Effects that will work.

The display would not. However, your model does not have a discrete GPU, and the integrated (Intel 3000) would not meet CS6's requirements (any CS6 software) alone.
However:
Standard VRAM:
384 MB
Maximum VRAM:
512 MB*
Details:
Apple reports that "memory available to Mac OS X may vary depending on graphics needs. Minimum graphics memory usage is 384 MB". *If upgraded to 8 GB of RAM (or more), 512 MB will be reserved for video function.
In other words, you would need to upgrade your RAM to 8 GB. The VRAM (video ram) of the processor can exceed its specifications if you upgrade your memory to 8 GB. In order to run the software, you would have to upgrade your RAM first:

Opening a really old After Effects Project

I had some work come through where I needed to revisit some AE v5.5 projects. But CS5.5 or CS5 wouldn't open them. I had to reinstall my AE v7.0 to open them. Then I used CS5.5 to open the AE 7.0 project. (And I would have been screwed if I was using Lion because there's no Rosetta to run AE 7).
I vaguely remember a chart showing what versions can open up what. I'm assuming this is a 64-bit issue?

I've never seen a chart, but each version of the Help document says what can open what.
Here are the relevant notes from After Effects CS5 and CS5.5 Help:
Note: After Effects CS5 can open and import After Effects projects created by After Effects 6.0 and later.
Note: After Effects CS5.5 can open and import After Effects projects created by After Effects 6.5 and later.
> I'm assuming this is a 64-bit issue?
It's a development and testing issue. If we say that something works, we test the bejeezus out of it. If we attempted to keep project import back to After Effects 1.0 projects, we'd have to spend a lot of testing time (and some development time) on that, and that would keep us from developing and testing new features. And we know that the rare cases in which people do need to open very old projects can be dealt with by the workaround that you used.

After Effects project not updating

Hi
I have an issue with media encoder, when I use media encoder to render a After Effects project and then need to make a change to the original AE project and re render I’m finding that the change is not reflected when I re open that file in media encoder.
I take it that media encoder is caching the file but then why is the cached version not updating?
Any help please

What version of After Effects and AME do you have?
After you make your changes in After Effects, you should use the Composition > Add to Adobe Media Encoder Queue command, which was new in After Effects CC (12.0). Alternately, you can drag the comp from the Project panel in After Effects to the Queue panel in AME.
Otherwise you'll need to quit and restart AME to force it to reload the project.
Under the hood, AME reads After Effects comps using Dynamic Link, which loads a copy of your After Effects project in the background. If you save changes into your After Effects project file while Dynamic Link still has that copy loaded into memory, that copy is not affected. (This is a bug. You're welcome to file a bug report about it.) Only in the case where AME has flushed that copy from memory would it reload the project file and see the updates, which may happen if AME needs the memory space and will always happen if you quit AME.
The difference with the Add to Adobe Media Encoder Queue command, or dragging the comp from After Effects to AME (in After Effects CC (12.0) and later) is that every time you do this, a temporary copy of your project file on disk is created with the current state of the comp. Having that updated project as a unique file avoids the issue of Dynamic Link needing to update the previous instance of the project.
