Should I render a looping movie in After Effects or in Flash Pro?

Hello. I am using Flash Pro CS6.
Right now I am trying to make a simple SWF file that can play three looping clips via individual play buttons.
I made three FLV movies in After Effects. They are  80 frames , 30 fps clips, but those clips have lots of same frames. I mean one clip is something like this.
AAAA BBBB CCCC DDDD AAAA
AAAA DDDD CCCC BBBB AAAA
AAAA BBBB CCCC DDDD AAAA
AAAA EEEE FFFF BBBB AAAA
It contains just 6 frames(A,B,C,D,E,and F). As you can see there are lots of same frames.
I want to make SWF as small as possible, so to make it small, I should import still images and make a new timeline in Flash pro and render them as SWF in it?if I import still bitmap images(ABCDEF images) into Flash Pro and make a SWF in it, Flash Pro can do better compression than AE? If so I will remake the timeline. I really need better compression because I need to submit a SWF file whose limit is 5MB.
If I need to make my SWF small,Which is the best choice? Making a FLV in AE and import it into Flash Pro and publish, OR Making a movie using those still images in Flash Pro and publish? Give me your advice. Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your advice.
Is it better to make a movie in Adobe Flash? Can you explain the  merit? I always use AE and it's much easier for me to make a movie in AE, if there is not big difference I want to stick with AE timeline. Tween function is kinda hard to handle.
And thank you for the FLV info.I will upload them and use them as an external clip.

  • Import files.mov in After Effects.

    Hi everyone.
    I'm coming to you because I have a new problem when I'm importing my files.mov in After Effect cs6.
    I use "Toon Boom Studio" to make stickman animation (it's for a project for my school) and when I'm exporting the file, I set 25 fps, 1920x1080 resolution and Apple ProRes 422 compression.
    When I'm playing the animation in quicktime, we can see that every parameters are corrects :
    But when I import this file in After Effect CS6, a strange thing happened :
    The fps of this file is to 26.042 and especially I don't have all the frames of my file. I mean there isn't the last frame of my animation. It seems that my animation was cut at the end. But it isn't when I played it in Quicktime or VLC.
    I'm sorry for my english, I hope you will understand me.

    Hello,
    You means changes the fps of the file to 26.042 to 25 ? If it's what you are talking about, I already try this, but it still miss the end of my animation.
    I create an animation with a stickman of 8 frames, 4 differents :
    And when I open it in After Effect, there isn't the last one. And it seems that the first picture last 3 frames in AE instead of 2.

    I have created some movies using After Effects but can't open them now because I get the following message:

    HELP. I have a project that needs to be delivered.

    The alert message is just telling you that a specific feature won't use the GPU. This message is innocuous. It only means that the processing of one specific, obsolete feature will use the CPU, not the GPU.
    Are you saying that After Effects won't start or open your project?

  • Has anyone solved or worked around the After Effects CC red flash frame glitch?

    I can't find any mention on any forums of the After Effects CC red flash frame glitch later than Feb. 2014. I just installed 12.2 (which was my first CC version) on my macpro and started getting the red flash frames randomly, but with increasing frequency, in my projects. I have never had this problem before on any previous computer or version for AE. The forums I've read have referenced ProRes source footage, outputs to ProRes, and lens blur. My project uses all of these things.
    If there is a universally accepted solution/work around, I haven't seen it definitively. Do I not use ProRes source footage? Do I not render to ProRes 4444? Do I not use the lens blur effect? Do I give up and go back to CS6?

    Hi Keith,
    I have the "same" issue with the red frames in AFX CC
    I have seen them first, as I resized a prores4444 HD to a smaller format and saw the redframes in the preview window.
    Setup in AFX: I created a comp from the HD Prores4444 footage and put this comp in a comp with resolution of 960x540.
    The output format was again prores4444.
    I shuttled through the clips in the small comp and I saw the red frames too.
    When I switched to the HD comp at the same position everything was fine.
    I "solved" the problem by flushing the cache, twice. Because after the first purge I was only able to render the first clip. The second one had the red frame problematic again.
    Maybe It has something to do with hardware accelerated layers.
    I'm using a MacPro running OSX 10.8.5 with a Nvidia GTX680.
    Cheers

  • Dynamic Link from After Effects CC to Premiere Pro CC Performance Issues

    I just updated my After Effects and Premiere Pro to CC and since doing so I've found numerous performance issues.  One that is seriously hurting my workflow is the poor performance of the dynamic link with After Effects compositions into Premiere Pro.   In CS6, you could make a change to the AE composition, save it, click over to Premiere Pro and it would quickly update and you can play your timeline and preview your changes.  You could also move the clips around and add cross dissolves and watch the changes quickly in Premiere Pro CS6.  Now, since updating to CC, if you save the composition in AE and click over to Premiere Pro it won't update on its own.  Sometimes it just shows a single frame of the AE composition.  I found that if you right click and "Edit Original", go into AE and then click back over to Premiere Pro and it will finally update.   But if you make any changes to the placement of the AE composition on the timeline, or add a cross dissolve, fade, etc. it again won't play the AE composition any longer.  After you make any changes to the AE composition you have to right click and go to "Edit Original", go into AE, and then click back over to Premiere Pro.. Then it will finally update.

    Thanks Kevin.
    Unfortunately in my case the export doesn't solve the issue. The video only looks good while in the composition... I've tried exporting it in all the different formats with several codecs, but to no avail...
    You can check my own post in the After Effects forum: AE linked composition looks different in Premiere

  • After Effects export as Premiere Pro project weird PAL/NTSC problem

    This post is not a question. It's here, because I've found a solution and want to share with You.
    I've noticed a strange problem during export from AE to PR.
    Ok, here I go.
    AE = After Effects CS3
    PR = Premiere Pro CS3
    My AE project is D1/DV PAL Widescreen. It is a sequence of slideshow with some video effects applied. I needed that sequence in PR. I was happy to find a new feature - export as premiere pro project (new for me - i am pretty rookie ;). Thaks to this feature I have saved most of my disk space that is always to low. But, like every first try, this one was not perfect too. I had two problems.
    Problem no 1.
    I opened exported project in PR and saw message like "video effect AE.CC COMPOSITE not present".
    Whole composition was working perfectly except that one video effect that was fundamental for this project.
    *Solution was as easy as it can be. I've just copied that effect from AE plugin folder to PR plugin folder. It worked for this.
    Problem no 2
    Like says AE Help "When you export an After Effects project as an Adobe Premiere Pro project, Adobe Premiere Pro uses the settings from the first composition in the After Effects project for all subsequent sequences."
    Project settings in PR was exactly D1/DV PAL Widescreen. So where is the problem You ask?
    Therefore why my Timeline works in NTSC 29,97 frame rate if all settings match PAL 25 frame rate?! I don't know.
    *Solution to fix this annoying bug is to create a new project in PR with all settings for D1/DV PAL Widescreen in this case. Than just import that PR project exported from AE. Now timeline works like it should in PAL frame rate.
    That's it.
    I hope this post is helpful, because I didn't find any answer for this here in Adobe forum.

    Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
    I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
    Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
    I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
    The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house.  It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service.  Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen.  It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
    I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device.  I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream.  Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
    I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it.  Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
    Thanks for the help!

  • After Effects project into Premiere Pro

    I am having trouble importing my After Effects  project into Premiere. It isn't playing once I bring it in to my premiere.

    What versions of After Effects and Premiere Pro? What operating system? What kinds of source footage?
    What exactly are you doing? What menu commands are you choosing, and what things are you clicking, and in what order?
    Here is a page that describes ways to move things from After Effects and Premiere Pro and vice versa:

    There are many ways to move things between these applications, but importing an After Effects project into Premiere Pro is not one of them, so I'm confused by your issue as you've stated it.

  • Error Code: 34 Mac OSX 10.8.4 for Photoshop CC, Bridge CC, After Effects CC, and Flash CC

    Hello,
    So I am installing all the CC versions of the software and all but Photoshop, Bridge, After Effects, and Flash installed without a hitch. On those 4 programs I get the same error code: 34. I am able to install the CS6 variants of them without any problem and run it. Here is the error code:
    Exit Code: 34
    Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example,  ERROR:
    -------------------------------------- Summary --------------------------------------

    I have been unable to fix this on my own and with what I've found online. I'll list what I have done so far to try to fix this issue. I have tried to use the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool but the issue is since PS, BR, AE, and FL won't install I can't clean them to try a fresh install. I tried installing the CS6 versions to see if it would dowload the 'Camera Profiles Installer_8.1".
    Any help on fixing this ASAP would be much appreciated!

  • Is there an easier way to work with adobe after effects and final cut pro x

    I use adobe after effects and I am thinking about deleting motion and compressor ( I can always install again). If you have a good reason to keep those apps let me know because I don't want to be hasty. If I delete them and stick with after effects and final cut pro...  Is there a secret to easy working between FCPX and adobe after effects?
    Thanks

    You'll go from FCP X to and from Motion a lot easier than AE.  Motion does pretty much anything AE does, most of the time faster and easier.  Without Motion, you can't do custom templates.  You can't customize the encoding of files without Compressor.  Why would you want to remove them from your system?  Leave them, use AE if you want along side of them.  But I'd learn Motion first.  Cause AE doesn't read FCPXML, so going back and forth between them is a PITA.
    And until Apple releases the round trip between FCP X and Motion fully, we have this gem:

  • After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 not available for installation for 32-bit systems

    After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 require a 64-bit operating system and processor to be installed and run.
    If you subscribe to Creative Cloud but use a 32-bit computer system, you will not be able to download and install Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6.
    This issue primarily affects users on the Windows operating system, since all supported versions of the Mac OSX operating system are able to run 64-bit applications.
    See this document for details:
    "64-bit Windows required for After Effects and Premiere Pro CS6"
    In general, you can only download and use applications for which your computer system meets the minimum system requirements.
    Premiere Pro system requirements
    After Effects system requirements

    Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
    I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
    Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
    I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
    The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house.  It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service.  Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen.  It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
    I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device.  I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream.  Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
    I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it.  Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
    Thanks for the help!

  • After effects vs final cut pro?

    Is comparing adobe after effects to final cut pro, a fair comparison? What I mean is, looking around on youtube, I see better... effets on projects made with projects on after effects. now, I love FCP for editing, does adobe give a better program thats can do effects. I am looking to make my videos look more profesional, and I notice after effects has effects built into its system to do effects.
    After looking at this vidoe, im sold, final cut pro can not do this that quick.

    Effects do NOT make your videos more professional. Professionalism is the only thing that can make your videos appear to have been produced, written, shot, and edited by a professional. Even faking professional video requires elevated professionalism.
    Hey! Just wait one second! That's is NOT what is promised by Apple and whoever makes those promises! All I have to do is buy the computer and the software and I'm a "professional!"
    But I truly and strongly encourage you to go ahead and purchase After Effects based solely on the Video Copilot tutorials. Know in advance that AE is about ten times as complex as FCP ever will be and you will want to post extensively in the Beginner's AE Forum on the cow.

    I would also suggest extensive posting in the FCP Beginners forum on the Cow for the OP.

  • After Effects AND/OR Premiere  Pro CS5 ?

    Hi guys,
    I am quite new, I have only done one videoproject and that was in Premiere Pro CS4. Now I got a new machine and have both Premiere Pro CS5 and After Effects. I have started learning AE from some videos and it is quite impressing what you can do there.  So I hope I can use AE to  improve my videos.
    My question is, shall I do the project in PPCS5 and then connect to AE for making special effects on clips or shall I do the whole project in After Effects ?
    If I choose AE for the project, will I miss some functions from Premiere Pro?
    Many thanks in advance !
    Sven 

    Thank you guys!
    You put me on track, expecially with the link!
    From beginning I am just taking care of  old videos that noone look at because not edited so most of the time just crap.
    I want to edit them, try to improve color and sharpness but also add some funny elements so they are more interesting to watch.
    I have 30 videos from my daughter, each 1 hour and 8 of my own (really crap) and 8 VHS from a friend. That is just to start with.
    Start Adobe Premiere Pro from within After Effects and capture footage for use in After Effects. (See Use Adobe Premiere Pro for capture (Production Premium and Master Collection only).)
    Use Adobe Dynamic Link to work with After Effects compositions in Adobe Premiere Pro without first rendering them. A dynamically linked composition appears as a clip in Adobe Premiere Pro.
    Use Adobe Dynamic Link to work with Adobe Premiere Pro sequences in After Effects without first rendering them. A dynamically linked sequence appears as a footage item in After Effects.
    Start After Effects from within Premiere Pro and create a new composition with settings that match the settings of your Premiere Pro project.
    Select a set of clips in Adobe Premiere Pro and convert them to a composition in After Effects. "
    So with a testvideo I will start using these 5 different methods so I learn when to use which one!
    And I also have 4-5 videolessons to watch.
    Thanks again!
    I probably be back soon with more questions!

  • After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro

    I thought After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro were part of the cloud. Neither appeared in the download manager and I'm not able to install.

    This question gets asked a lot because, rather than putting a simple, clear explanatory note into the Application Manager, Adobe confusingly opted to simply omit apps not supported by your operating system from the download screen thereby leaving users such as yourself bewildered as to why those apps are not available for you for download.
    Many people often think their Application Manager is somehow broken or corrupted.
    I take it that you're running Windows XP 32 bit or Windows 7 32 bit?
    Neither will run PP or AE unfortunately so those apps  are not available for you to download.
    64 bit operating systems only.

  • After effect et première pro CS5.5

    Bonjour,
    j'ai installé la version d'essai d'after effect et première pro CS5.5. Dans After j'ai importé une petite vidéo de 12.15 s, faite avec mon appareil photo . dessus j'ai fait la même chose que dans le tutoriel d'adobe tv intitulé "utilisation de l'outil roto-pinceau. j'ai fais le même parcours, la seule différence est que quand je fais une prévisualisation ça mets du temps à refaire chaque image par image, même après avoir figé le roto pinceau. c'est vrai que sur ma vidéo j'ai beaucoup plus d'intervention que dans le tutoriel, mais bon après avoir enregistré mon projet, je vais dans dans première pro, j'importe mon projet after, et là pas moyen de lire ma vidéo. j'ai la prmière image puis ça passe à celle du milieu puis à celle de fin. j'ai passé des heures dessus et je voudrais que ce ne soit pas en vain. peut être ai je mal choisi le type de composition, mais pour être honnête, je ne sais pas trop ce qu'il faut choisir car il y en a tellement. quelqu'un pourrait il m'aider ? j'aimerai pouvoir faire mon projet avant la fin de l'essai.
    merci d'avance

    Bonjour Pierre, C'est par hasard mais avec plaisir que je lis ta réponse à Quinou presque deux ans plus tard!!!
    Des sous-titres c'est toujours mieux que l'anglais même si ce n'est pas commode de lire, essayer de comprendre et regarder en même temps le déroulé du tuto. En cas de réel besoin, c'est toujours très utile d'avoir un tuto sous-titré à défaut de traduction orale.
    C'est l'occasion de remercier tous ceux qui sur ce forum apportent leur aide aux utilisateurs qui a un moment ou l'autre risquent de tomber dans le désespoir absolu que se soit par leur manque de connaissances  ou problèmes divers réels ou supposés des logiciels.
