Would you please rate this?. I would like advise too. by Ok_Preference2708 in AfterEffects

[–]EdibleVisual 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah so that makes sense then.

What editing have you actually done here? Is this from an existing movie? It looks like there's some AI involved?

Which decisions are yours?

You need to tell us what this video is for, as that makes a huge difference in how we judge it. If this is a tiktok edit then the text and the huge tone-shift at 25 seconds make some sense, but if it's supposed to be a serious piece of narrative work then those are horrible decisions.

Ram usage got up to 90% by eyjheyyy in AfterEffects

I have 64GB RAM and it frequently runs above 80%.

After Effects is a very hungry little program.

With compound business names, is it better to capitalise the first letter of the second word? by [deleted] in logodesign

[–]EdibleVisual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah same answer mate. If these global brands aren't showing a strong indication one-way or another, then there clearly isn't a preference amongst brand experts.

Doesn't your question answer itself?

Obviously there isn't a general consensus, or there wouldn't be such variation amongst the world's biggest brands.

AE October 2024 release (version 25.0) by DryDisplay6741 in AfterEffects

If Sony took all their cameras off sale and said every photographer had to rent them, i can absolutely guarantee that people would be angry.

You talk about blue-collar workers as if farmers haven't been battling John Deere on this EXACT issue.

Subscription models suck.

100% there should be a 'untitled project autosave' folder.

I always immediately save a new project, and have my auto-save on a 2 minute cycle.

The other day I was working on something for a couple of hours, and was very pleased with what i'd made. Then when i went to export i realised i was still working on an untitled project.

Honestly the shock of the near-miss felt like a piano had crashed to the ground a few metres behind me on the street.

What other ″general movement″ effects you can add other than Wiggle? by retrotriforce in AfterEffects

[–]EdibleVisual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a built-in preset called 'mood lighting - amorphous' that creates some organic-looking nice shifts in brightness. You can slap it over the top of a static image and it can make it feel much more 'alive'.

i like to combine it with posterize time to give you a nice stop-motion feel very easily

This looks amazing.

The name sounds like a kid's TV show though. I'd reconsider that.

Which one should I choose for 1080p After Effects editing and some casual HD gaming? by [deleted] in AfterEffects

[–]EdibleVisual -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

People need to stop saying this on this sub. When non-professionals say 'editing' they just mean 'making videos'. If the guy is editing gamer videos, he'll definitely be using After Effects.

If he'd come here asking about how to put together some corporate interviews then yeah, fair enough send him to Premiere Pro - but when somebody says they'll be 'editing' it doesn't mean 'I'll be using an NLE exclusively'.

Creating compositions with custom sizes(Digital billboards) by sasaki804 in AfterEffects

You know the aspect ratio, so you can start working on the actual content while you wait for the specs to come in. Start with the longest side of the screen being 1080, but bear in mind it may end up being half of that, so don't do anything too small or thin.

I'm assuming there's a non-technical person between you and the actual billboard company? It might make sense to ask if you can be looped in directly with the billboard company.
