Adobe AE; Making the WHOLE Avatar Music Video there?

Postby BungiJumpMeh1 » Wed Mar 05, 2014 8:56 am

So; I've seen that some people have made their whole video in ae, I could do that I'd think to myself, I only use sv for cutting clips from the 24 minute episode, so on that note, when in ae and You can click alt+Bracket to trim, but it doesn't actually cut down the whole thing right? there's still a part there, where the video wont show up (cause you trimmed it) if I'm getting my point straight? so I'm basically asking is there some secret I don't know about, about making videos from large sources (Whole episodes, movies) I'd like to know how some of you guys make the whole thing in ae ^^ without any other programs (other than photoshop :P)

After Effects isn't made for cutting video, that is what Premiere is for, After Effects is for exactly what the name says, effects.?.Adobe had dynamic linking between the two so that it's somewhat settles, but it's not perfect. To answer your question about making clips, you are correct, it cannot make clips. You can hide parts of a video, but the entire length shows on the timeline and there is a layer for each video.

Hmm ok! Would premiere make it easier to work in ae ? I've seen the option to import from premiere, so I'm guessing so :P cause I'm constantly rendering each clip and importing to ae,

Kinda.??.it doesn't really like clips with altered speed, but for the most part it works rather nice.

it also doesn't like clips that have certain attributes enabled.?? like "scale to frame size." Clips with altered speed used to just flat-out not work in Adobe CS6 and below.?? in CC it works.?? sometimes.??
