What you learned: Export a broadcast-quality video file
Personally, I always export my video using the Render Queue in Adobe After Effects and there is an option to add your video to the Render Queue in the main menu. Alternatively, you can also simply select Composition – Add to Render Queue to add the currently active composition into the render queue. After Effects is often not the last step in a production pipeline and you want the highest quality file when exporting for the next step. AME can give you the H.264 (as well as every other codec Adobe supports, including Animation) file with the benefit of being able to process in the background while you continue to work in After Effects. Browse the latest Adobe After Effects tutorials, video tutorials, hands-on projects, and more. Ranging from beginner to advanced, these tutorials provide basics, new features, plus tips and techniques.
Note the bit depth settings in your project
- Click the Project Settings button in the bottom of the Project panel to open the Color settings and to find out the bit depth of your project. (Higher settings like 16 or 32 bit will require specific codec settings when you render your project.)
- Change the setting in the Depth drop-down menu (if desired), and click OK to close the panel.
Tip: Friday night funkin game free play. Artists and designers often work at higher bit depth to smooth out gradients and access more varying colors. Working at higher bit depth does require more processing, and 8 bit is the minimum depth required for broadcast-quality video. Batchmod pc. Microsoft silverlight version check.
