Will C4D R16 LITE be available with After Effects CC?

hi!
Until now, the C4D versione in bundle with AE CC is R14 lite. Will R16 lite be available as free update for AE CC's owners?
Thanks
Best
Domenico

The plan is for the version of Cinema 4D Lite that comes with the next version of After Effects to be Cinema 4D Lite R16. There are also some new features coming in the Cinema 4D integration with After Effects that should make the workflow significantly better.

Cinema 4D Lite wont render in After Effects?

I'm a beginner with After Effects and while trying to use Cinema 4D Lite I came back to After Effects and made a new Composition with the .c4d file. All that showed up in my composition was black, and if I scrubbed through nothing showed up and it stayed the same. When I tried rendering it gave me "After Effects error: RAM Preview needs 2 or more frames to playback."
I'm not very tech savvy, so if someone would kindly help fix the problem in a simple manner that would be awesome!

We can't help without more info. FAQ: What information should I provide when asking questions on this forum?
This might help: details of CINEMA 4D integration with After Effects
Although, if you're a beginner, you shouldn't be messing with C4D yet, you should start here: Getting started with After Effects
Seriously, skip the foundational stuff at your own peril.

Does cinema 4d come with after effects?

I was watching some creative cloud videos and the guy says you get Cinema 4d lite when you get after effects. I have Creative Cloud, so therefore i have After effects. so do i get the lite version of cinema 4d? and if so, how do i install it or whatever?

C4D Lite is automatically installed with AE. It can only be launched from within AE, though, by creating a new C4D file or editing an important one, not as a separate program per se.

Serious resolution issues with After Effects CC (2014) on Windows 8.1 Pro on Dell Precision M3800 laptop??

My new company installed Adobe Creative Cloud (There was some annoying Proxy issues at first, because of the seriously tight I.T policies) but we are having some serious resolution issues with After Effects CC 2014 (also have this resolution problem with Adobe Premiere, Media Encoder, Muse) on Windows 8.1 Pro on a Dell Precision M3800 laptop with icons and interface looking too small and hard to see, is there a fix, an update or a work around, can anyone help?
Any help will be appreciated!
k.regards
Ramon

Hi Todd is there a time-frame for this fix, there is a lot of pressure on me, because I convinced my company to get the Creative Cloud and quite a lot of the CC software is not compatible with the latest Windows 8.1 OS.
Is there at least a work around, until this big fix comes along?

Issues with replacing clip in Premiere with After Effects composition

So basically, i want to track a title to a piece of footage, so i've made my ins and outs and my footage is placed on my timeline in premiere with my title over top. Now I select the two pieces in premiere (the title and the clip) and I hit replace with after effects composition, and it ADOBE does it's thing etc.
but now in my AE project window I have two copies of my title file and two copies of my mp4 clip.
two of them are pre loaded into my timeline and the appropriate ins/outs which is perfect but I can't seem to do anything like tracking to them,
in my project window AE is referring to the ones that show up in the timeline as "compositions" while the extra files that aren't in the timeline are "mp4" and "psd" (the actual file types)
now. if i just delete the two "compositions" that are masquerading as files in my timeline and drag down my mp4 / psd then my tracking becomes available and all is wonderful
EXCEPT
my in's and out's from premiere aren't there and I have to go about all of that all over again and it's very annoying
any ideas?

Copy that! Thanks for the help as it is!
I'll likely have to do as you suggested in the interest of my turnaround but if anyone else out there has any suggestions for my original question of utilizing the dynamic link between PP and AE without the issue mentioned I'd be super stoked!

CV Artsmart not working with After Effects CC 2014

I'm trying to do a simple Path Spread animation with CV Artsmart (Cineversity plugin) but when I open the animation in After Effect CC with Cineware the animation does not display, it works perfectly in Cinema 4d r15 ...is this a bug or known issue, is there a work around?
k.regards

Not all plug-ins work with Cineware.
Also, make sure that you are targeting your installed edition of Cinema 4D R15, rather than the bundled Cinema 4D Lite, as described here:

Best laptop for working with after effects

I need a laptop for work with adobe after effects and some others. Anyway I need laptop wich will not cost more than 1400€ and which will have inside intel core i7, 4 GB of memory or more and Nividia graphic card. Somthing more pls dont say the apple is the best beacuse i dont like it very much.
Thanks.

4GB is a rather small amount of RAM for working with After Effects. If you can get a computer with more RAM, I recommend doing so.
For After Effects CS5, the graphics card (GPU) doesn't matter as much as RAM and CPUs, so focus on RAM and CPUs first.
In general, a laptop is not going to give you the same performance as a desktop computer of the same price. If you need a laptop, fine; but don't be surprised when performance isn't as good as you might like.

About the crash on quit with After Effects CS4 on Mac OS...

This post on Jeff Almasol's blog gives some information about an issue with ScriptUI scripts that can cause After Effects CS4 on Mac OS to crash when you quit the application:

Trish and Chris Meyer recommend a couple of workarounds on the
ProVideo Coalition website.

I want to maximize the use of the render farm and not just limit it to AE, I want to be able to render in multiple creative applications. Deadline looks good except as of today its Windows/Linux only: http://www.franticfilms.com/software/products/deadline/feature_set/
I want to throw in Final Cut Studio into the Mix along with Modo, Houdini, C4D and other applications, but strictly on Mac OS X.

Updated document about QuickTime errors with After Effects (re: H.264 and hyperthreading)

I just updated "troubleshooting QuickTime errors with After Effects CS5, CS5.5, and CS6" with information about hyperthreading and Apple's H.264 encoder.
The gist is that Apple's H.264 exporter component for QuickTime fails when the computer has a large number of CPUs.

No, this applies to any QuickTime H.264 export. You can export H.264 in a QuickTime .mov wrapper out of AME, too, and it will have this problem.
The various H.264 encoding presets (for YouTube, Blu-ray, Vimeo, iPad, etc.) don't use the H.264 QuickTime component, so this isn't relevant to them.
This problem is just relevant to choosing Apple's H.264 as the video codec when choosing QuickTime as a format. This applies to all software that uses QuickTime, by the way, not just Adobe software.

Help With Dynamically Linking Premiere With After Effects

Recently, I edited some video footage in Adobe Premiere, dynamically linked it with After Effects, and added several effects and transitions within the latter application. However, after I thoroughly finished with my effects editing, I wished to place my After Effects Composition once more into Premiere, but this task met to no avail.
Whenever I copied, dragged, or dynamically linked the After Effects project into Premiere, the footage showed up displaying either "Media Offline" or a series of colors that you sometimes see when a tv channel is offline. Now, I did read several posts describing the dynamic link as being only ONE WAY, but is there no possible way to move my After Effects composition back into Premiere? Or do I have to start from scratch by copying the Premiere footage into After Effects, THEN dynamically linking it to Premiere?
Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Right, I realize that now, but that would require deleting the current dynamically linked After Effects project, right?
Also, I think the solution to my problem would be found if I could find a way to remove the dynamic link between After Effects and Premiere. Any ideas?

Replace With After Effects Composition... What's the Point...???

Hi...
So I have a timeline that I want to CC in AE....
I select all the clips and choose "Replace with After Effects Compostion"
PPRO correctly initiates an AE launch which then correctly makes a Composition with all my clips in it...
Now, ALL the clips, while there in the AE Comp, DONT have the clip names I gave them in the Timeline in PPRO.
They have the original clips names. Like MVI_9987.MOV which is totally misleading....
Why on earth would PPRO NOT adopt the names of the clips in the timeline to the after effects compostion ??
This is my major gripe with Adobe, you have so many GREAT and VERY Innovative but totally NON-Thought-Thru' features. It is killing me.
This here among so manu other things is what makes your CS Suite (Aside from Photoshop) a Pro-Sumer Solution....
A professional solution is NOT regarded professional because it has fancy features, it is regarded as such because the features it HAS have been WELL contemplated and integrated.
I hope your CS6 version is going to take care of all those small problems...
But then again, been having those hopes since CS4

The bit I do not understand is why the need to rename the Clips and how that becomes of value in either PPRO or AEFX (or Resolve or elsewhere).
Say YOU have to colorize my movie that I am currently cutting. The timeline consists of about 630 clips, derived from about 300 sources (Clips in Bin)
The clips in the bin have the original rush name... Thus BLABLA.mov... This way you can alsways go back and in time. Adobe has integrated something called METADATA and THAT should be use to describe scenes, shots etc.
That is why adobe made a BIG deal out of integrating Metadata..
Now, in above scenario let us assume that you CC in AfterEffects. I'll send you the project via overnight on a hard drive, and tomorrow you open it either via Importing the Project into AE or by opening it in PPRO and hitting replace with AE comp.
You going to get 630 individual layers in the AE Com. The layer names are going to be derived from the source clips. So you are going to be looking at MAX 300 different names. YOU SHOULD be looking at 630 different names. But you are not.
AE will ignore the PPRO clipsnames and just generically name the layers by the source clip name.... Again... even if I had renamed all the source clips in the bins ONE source clip could be contain 7 differen subclips in the whole timeline.. ALL THOSE clips would share the same name... Thus nothing to do with it label..
So, now I have YOU on the phone, breathing down my neck, trying to communicate to me WHICH clip had THAT cool sunrise effect. I DID label it Sunrise... But PPRO and AE messed that up... So I go....
Hoooold On, Shooter..... Let me just open the timeline and count from left to right.... 1,2,3,4,5,6.... 459,,,, Ohhhh there it is... Clip number 459 from the left... Have fun Counting clips.
I hope you understand what I am saying, if not... OK... at least then I can understand why you DONT understand -) (No Disrespect Meant)
You make the following over dramatic claim about how fast your workflow is ....but to me, that would be slow and imprecise.
Based on your questions I can understand why you would feel that way.
I bet you are one of those guys thinking FCPx's event library sucks ;-)
Can you tell me how you name the clips in the workflow you describe here...?
I select the clip, hit ctrl-r (rename clip), give it a name and move on to the next...

Mat,
I'm sure you've figured it out.
I don't know how you got two separate source clips - you should have a sequence (comp) and the footage in the project window (bin window) for each In your comp, the tracking can be done by selecting the layer in that comp.
And - you've probably already figured it out that you needed those comps so they could dynamically link back to PremierePro easily.
If you have any Ae/Pr questions - I'm going to try to be in this forum more. I love this stuff.

Premiere pro CC " Replace With After Effect Composition" Cinema DNG AKA CDNG Issue

I am trying to right click on a cinema dng file and do a "replace" with After Effects Composition. When doing so it only brings in a single frame rather than the entire adjusted video clip. Does anyone know a solution or workaround? Is Adobe aware of this problem? Will they continue to support Cinema DNG files? or should we lean to another NLE? Please advise adobe.

Thanks.
After some testing, it looks to be an After Effects issue. The Replace command did open up AE, create a new project, import the segment of the clip I wanted, and created a proper composition with the correct duration. It even opened up the Camera Raw adjustment panel for me to play around in. The problem was that every frame of that 1 second long clip was identical, it was the first frame of the whole clip.
When I went into the Media Browser and opened up the same clip from the hard drive, it too opened up as the whole clip seeing only that first frame.
When I imported using a right click>Import command (exactly what we shouldn't be doing in PP with tapeless media), the clip came in properly with all frames.
So AE is acting weird with CinemaDNG files, it seems. You may have to start out in AE and DL from there to PP.
