Alpha From To Effect is flickering - Captivate 6

I had added 10 image buttons in the slide and provided an animation “Alpha From to” and mentioned the value as Initial 0% and final as 100% and applied the same for all the other buttons too.. But when I animate and see the smooth effect is not coming. It gives some jerk or some flickering effect is happening and this is not happening for all the buttons 1 or 2 buttons only.. how to rectify this.. Please help me.

Thanks for the replies, unfortunately most of the objects are buttons so I have to add the effect manually which is already unwieldy given that I'll have hundreds of coordinated assets by the end of this project. The transitions don't seem to be working, however it was creating a cool effect for one thing. This is why I wanted to do these elements with videos, but alas...
Thanks for the replies, I'm still waiting for IT to respond but if this problem is continuing then I don't see an update helping this particular issue.

Transferring from After Effects

I am trying to key out a green screen using After Effects. The program itself does a better job with the footage I am using than FCP. After I finish my work I am having trouble importing the footage back into a file that FCP can read. Does anyone have any suggestions or tips on how I could export from After Effects into a file that FInal Cut can read or is there a possible direct way to send that footage to FCP.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

There are two ways to do this, use ProRes4444 or use the Animation codec. Open up the help system that comes with AE and look up how to set your rendering (not exporting) queue to produce a movie that contains the alpha channel.

Export a 3D title text from after effects to my desktop

I am having trouble exporting my 3D title text from after effects to my desktop to use in premiere pro...sending to render que but won't render for export. Am I missing a step?

It would help if we knew your render settings, your experience level with AE, a little more about your workflow. Even knowing what version of AE and what OS may be helpful. This is probably just user error. Normal workflow would be to add the composition to the render cue, select a folder (the desktop is a lousy place to store assets by the way) and then press render. Without changing anything you'll get lossless DIm (digital intermediate) suitable for use in any NLE but not suitable for playback. If you need transparency then you should select lossless with alpha in the output module from the pull down.
If you want something else then tell us more.
Inside AE, if you see a search help field at the top right corner of the app type in 'rendering,' press enter, then read through the first two articles.

When I add my composition to the Adobe Media Encoder from After Effects, it renders out incorrectly?

Why is it that when I add my composition directly from after effects to the adobe media encoder, it renders out of the adobe media encoder incorrectly? By that I mean the video comes out a little scrambled- parts of it overlap other parts. Is this an issue with 'dynamic link'? Did I do something wrong? I'm working in CC.

I also don't understand what you are saying. What do you mean by "parts of it overlap other parts"? A screen shot might help.
What were your render settings in AME? (Format, Codec, data rate, etc.)
What is in your AE comp? If footage, tell us what format, codec, etc. Tell us what effects were used too.
What exact version number of AE CC are you using?

Problem with sending clips from after effects to premiere. Color looks different. Any advice? Can't link. 4k raw in premiere and 40 layers per clip in ae. Can't handle it.

There's a definite color difference from Premiere to ae. I'm using cineform files as alphas from ae to put back over the clips in Premiere as a layer. The problem is the color doesn't match like it did in ae and the mask and all that seem funky. Anyone experience this or have ideas?

How do I set text from an effect?

How do I write an effect to set the text on a text layer? The text functions appear to be part of the AEGP suites. I've tried to access these from my effect, in both the 'FrameSetup()' and 'Render()' functions, the text doesn't appear.
Since there are text effects that come with After Effects, it must be possible. I must be overlooking something fundamental.
Thanks,
Bob Bales

Thanks,
I basically copied from the "Trxt Twiddler" sample. My sequence of calls (with appeopriate suite pointers and arguments) is:
AEGP_GetEffectLayer();
AEGP_GetNewLayerStream();
GetNewStreamValue();
AEGP_SetText();
AEGP_DisposeStreamValue();
AEGP_DisposeStream();
If this is correct, I;ll start checking the values of the arguments.

16:9 video sides cut off when exported from After Effects

When I export a 16:9 video from After Effects, the sides are cut off in the exported clip. I've tried different export settings and and my composition settings are correct, from what I can tell. Does anyone know why this could be happening?
Thanks!

and my composition settings are correct, from what I can tell.
But are they really? We cannot know, because you don't say anything about your exact render settings and comp settings, which is what is required here. You could be using an unsuitable CoDec or even crop your output inadvertently by using a specific output module setting....

Missing editing components from my effects panel

I just started using my Premiere Elements software on a Mac after having first used it on a PC. I am trying to edit something and noticed that many of my keying effects are missing from the effects panel. How do I find or restore them? I need the keying effects for green and blue screen but all thosse are missing. Please help. Thanks!

G Pizzarello
Although the operations of Premiere Elements Windows and Mac are very similar, there are differences.
One of the differences is in the keying effects, such as Chroma Key, Green Screen Key, and Blue Screen Key. Many will steer you in the direction of Videomerge as a possible workaround. Not one of my favorites. But, you can check it out to see if it works for you.
Please take a look at my blog post on the use of the Difference Matte as a possible replacement for the keying effects not present in Premiere Elements Mac. This blog post would apply to Premiere Elements 11 as well as 12.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/05/pe11-difference-matte-as-substitute-for.html
As for other Premiere Elements Windows and Mac differences, I have reported some in another of my blog posts directed to PE11: Mac Information Round Up
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/08/pe11-mac-information-round-up.html
I am strictly an Elements Windows user. So, that blog post was one of my initial steps to get acquainted to Premiere Elements Mac.
Please review.
Thanks.

Generate text from the effect controls

Is it possible to generate text from a textfield (or something similar) from the effect controls?
I have an Adjustment Layer with a custom effect on it with a Slider, two Color pickers and four Checkboxes.
Can I somehow add a textfield that the user can input text in, and then link this to a text layer in the composition?
The reason I want this, is because the user can add all the information in one effect, instead of having multiple text layers to edit.
I don't think there is a textbox for this, but is there anpther way? Let's say I add an effect that has a dynamic name, that I can link up to the source text of my textlayers in the composition.
Any help would be much appreciated
Eirik

Thank you for fast reply!:)
Ok, then I guess it can't be done, not the way I hoped anyway.
This is the effect I have made. I have linked the properties to other layers.
What I wanted was an input field where the user inputs for example "My Title". The source text of my text field in the composition would then update to "My Title".
I know I could probably do this by code, but then the original point kinda disappears. It should be easy for the user to adjust the settings under one effect, instead of having to adjust it multiple places.
I guess the user have to edit the textfield in the comp by actually going into the layer (doubleclick it/highlight it with the text tool etc.) unless you have a genius workaround? (Please say you do:P)

Exporting layers of audio from After Effects cs6 to Premiere / or Audition? Is this possible?

exporting layers of audio from After Effects cs6 to Premiere / or Audition? Is this possible?
Help - I have an After effects project with multiple layered files and want to copy these to Premiere / Audition. For example I know if you select multiple video files from After Effects these can be pasted straight into Premiere intact - but this does not work with audio. I want to take existing layered audio files from After Effects to Audition / or Premiere but can't copy and paste - is there a simple solution for this?

Hi thanks Dave for responding - yes that could work as a 'workaround' - I was hoping there would be a way I can keep the existing independent audio layers and corresponding audio levels from After Effects- in the same way I can copy and paste video files from After Effects to Premiere - rather than exporting a flattened AIFF /WAV from After Effects.
This would then allow me a lot more control working on the final edit - especially as currently a lot of the audio layers overlap. It does seem there is no simple solution for this, so otherwise I can do what you suggest - and 'stagger all the audio files' in sequence so they do not overlap on the timeline and then when I import the flattened exported AIFF file into Audition/ Premeire / I then can cut it up again and recreate the overlaps. Was hoping there might be a simple copy + paste method or other 'export method' but I guess this is simply not possible. It would save me about 7 hours of work, but not the end of the world I guess
One final point - some of the audio clips are .mp3s but the majority are WAVS, hopefully this should not create any issues on the export.
thanks again for your help, if you or anyone has any other solution pls let me know
Best

Color in .mov file from After Effects CS6

Scrren shot of how my animation looks in After Effects CS6 (on the left), vs. how it looks when rendered to a .mov file. (on the right). See how washed-out the colors look?
I am on a Mac, latest software versions and OSX.7.4. The source material is in RGB mode, Color Setting is Adobe RGB 1998, which is my wRGB working space. Color settings are synchronized across the entire suite. In the AE project settings, I see that color management is turned on and we are indeed in the Adobe RGB 1998 color space.
Possibly export settings, because I do not know thing one about those!
Thanks,

Read this FAQ: What is the best format for rendering and exporting from After Effects?
Then I would suggest trying a different codec. When you send your comp to the Render Queue it says lossless next ot the Output Module Settings, that means that it's using After Effect's defualt lossless settings, which uses a codec called Animation. Animation is an ancient codec that delivers huge files and it isn't used so much in production anymore. If you click on lossless the Output Module Settings screen will come up where you can change the format of your render and you can change the codec by hitting the Format Options button.
I've seen that washed out issue before with the Animation codec and just did some tests. I also played with the Color Management settings using the Animation codec by going to the upper right hand tab in the Output Module Settings menu. That seemed to have no effect on the final look of the render. A quicktime render with the Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) codec seems to match the AE screenshot almost identically.
Unfortunately, you can't get the ProRes codecs without having either Final Cut Pro installed or Apple Motion. I think it's possible to buy them from the Apple website. However, there are other lossless codecs you can try such as Uncompressed YUV 10bit or 8bit, but I just did a test and I got a much darker render than the ProRes renders and the screenshot. Judge for yourself what's best...

Sound problem with exporting from After Effects

Hello everybody,
I exported a windows media video from premiere cs5 (it was shot with the cannon 7d).
The video has 1 video channel, 1 audio channel that contains a conversation, and another audio channel that contains only music.
After I exported it, I imported the video into After Effects cs5, I added some effects, and then I exported it as a windows media video.
The audio settings were:
Mode- music
codec- windows meida audio voice 9
audio format- 20kbps, 22.05 khz, mono
Even though the video from Premiere was flawless, the one from After Effects contains the conversation perfectly, but the music is very low and even erratic.
Did anybody experienced this problem?

AE doesn't deal with multiple channels. It always assumes that a file with 2 channels is stereo. You need to export the audio from Premiere separately or create a proper stereo mix, not throw two interleaved mono channels at AE...

Importing project from after effects to premiere, plug in effect not available?

Hello all, Im using cs5. When I import a video project to premiere from after effects, i get an error message saying that an effect plugin from after effects is not available in premiere. Specifically the glow effect. I thought that since after effects had the effect that premiere would too. I'm asking for the college i go to as we are not too familiar with this program and we have a sub for the next few weeks, thanks in advanced !

oh sorry, i didnt notice that the post i posted didnt have really any info, the page froze and the page saved my info, i guess i submitted the wrong post. anyways, this whats going on.
I make an after effects cs5 composition which is a .MOV video i took, roughly 1 minute with the glow effect applied to the video. I then import the composition to premiere, premiere then gives me the error that premiere does not have the glow effect and therefore, won't be applied. below is my specs and here is a link to another post of mine that might possibly have something to do with this. after effects cs5 keylight (1.2) crash with dynamic link error?

Blurry comp from After Effects to Premiere

Hello,
I did a simple logo as a 3D object to spin and have some text flash by. I encoded it and imported it to Prem Pro. The problem is the logo and text look blurry when I hit play. Is there a rule of thumb for export settings etc etc. Thanks for the help.

Suggestions -
1. Use Dynamic lik instead of exporting from after effects and then impoting in premiere pro if you have production premium or master collection.
2. If you are exporting for the purpose of importing in another application (premiere pro or Encore) you should chose to export in uncompressed format like uncompressed avi. So that you dont loose quality twicw that is once while export from after effect and then while export from premiere pro.
