Any ideas on how I can get this to render (without crashing) with the latest version of Adobe After Effects 23? I have tried both versions on MAC and PC and both crash either moments after you load the project file or while rendering (no more than 100 frames so far) Please help. Daniel

Intresting idea!

Hi! What freedom do I have to change the background to fading solid colors without any grunge or old-style effect? Can I also change the shapes of the particles? Like turning circles into squares? If so I am very interested in this template!

Changing the background colors would be fairly easy if you know your way around After Effects. You could just turn off the existing one and replacing it with your own.

Turning the circles into squares would be more challenging since in some of the animations the circles bounce off of each other and interact with each other. In these shots, replacing them with squares would look a bit odd. In the other shots where the circles are not touching each other, it would be possible to replace the current circle shapes layers with rectangles. However it will require some After Effects knowledge, so be sure that you at least know the basics of shape layers and replacing layers in animation.

Very good work thank you very much for this great job, but I have a problem to export the work. I tried everything, #5 Exporting file on your help files, Media Encoder, Render Queue on after with several encoding…nothing work there is all the time an error message à 12 seconds. I don’ t understand why. Could you help me please?

I use AE CC and the problem is, it dosen’t work when I export the Main Comp. When I export The content everything work expect that I have not the background. The error message is something soooooo long and in french that I think that it will dosen’t help us…

How much RAM do you have in your computer? Maybe try purging your Memory and Disk Cache in AE(you can google this if you don’t know how). Have you tried exporting as a PNG sequence? Sometimes this will work better.

Maybe you could try making a new comp and import the background in there? If all else fails please send me an email through my profile page and we can discuss further. Maybe you can send me over your project file and I can take a look as soon as I’m available.

It’s OK! I changed the background in the content and everything work! Thanks for your help

Great work. If i extend the time on timeline i dont’t see the background… how i can see the background under my composition? afte 3:30 the BG disappears. thanks

You probably need to hit the shy button and it will reveal all the layers including the BG layer and then you can extend it!

Cool project! =)

Hi there, is it possible to buy a version for CS5 ?

Hi there! Unfortunately I don’t have CS5 anymore so I can’t help you. Maybe you know someone who can revert it back to CS5 for you, but I can’t guarantee the template would still work correctly. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Love this – what is the best way to resize overall project? I’m trying to reduce file size and reduce render time. I’m using a top of the line 2014 MacBook Pro with 16GB RAM, but rendering is taking literally all day. I was able to reduce composition size, then fit layers to comp, but there are now “ghost” text layers which still remain at same size. Ideally, I’d like to change overall size to 800×450 and render to that size too. Thanks for any insights!

Hi and thanks :)

Render time takes two hours max on my MacBook Pro 2012 8GB RAM as far as I can remember. Are you using Adobe Media Encoder to export it into a H264 encoded MP4 file? That is as far as I know the best file type for small sizes and high quality.

Maybe some of the textures used in the project tax heavily on your RAM but that still doesn’t explain why my 2 year older MBP would complete the render much faster.

Easiest way to reduce resolution is:
- Make a new composition @ 800×450
- Import the Main Comp in to it.
- Resize Main Comp to fit screen area with the scale property.
- Export

Reducing the resolution shouldn’t make that much of an impact on render with this project I think.

Not sure what you mean by ghost text layers but try revealing all layers in the timeline window by hitting the ‘shy’ button inside every comp.

Thanks for the quick reply. I’ll try that. I think some of the effects layers didn’t scale down when I tried it originally. I have Adobe Media Encoder, but wasn’t using it. Appreciate the tips – I’ll try them now. I’m a noob on AE, so thanks for making it simple!

I’ve been hypnotized watching the preview… Absolutely great work!! Congrats ;)

Haha thank you very much :)

Absolutely fantastic.

Yes you are! :)

Can you edit the animation of each scene?

Well the physic animations are baked in per keyframe so it is possible but not desirable. It is best to leave them as they are. You could speed up or slow down the animations with time stretching of course. Since every physics animations is pre-comped you can change the position of (for example) the falling animations easily, they will just remain falling and bouncing at the same pace and speed but at another position.

The animations of the texts and other simple line animations are freely to edit as you like since their keyframes are not baked. Only the physics are baked. Hope this helps Laura!

Nice inspirational work!

Thanks Vineet :)

Is there also a with plugin version of this project?

No, unfortunately not. I have baked in the keyframes with this project. I could have saved the physics settings within the Newton plugin but once I had someone else load them on their PC it wouldn’t load properly and gave off some errors. Also you would have to load the physics settings for each separate scene in Newton manually and that is not desirable for a template I think. So yeah that is the main reason I chose to bake them in the project.

This is absolutely perfect! I cannot believe what I have wanted to make is already here – word for word too! wow! Thank You!

Such nice words! Thanks attagirl :)

I purchased this awesome work.
But pls take a look at your Envato mail inbox.
Cheers, Micha

Let me shorty say something about the author.
I asked for the 5.5 version and … after a very short time I got it.
THIS IS WHAT I CALL HELP!!!!!!
Many, many THANKS to motionvids!!!!!
Can I vote 100 stars?? ;.)

Haha thanks michak! I wish you could, but now we’ll have to do with 5 stars only :D Thanks for the rating and have fun with the project.

It’s my pleasre!!!

I see I’m not the only one who have got the idea of Apple’s commercials ;) Good work mate :)

Thanks! Yes those guys at Buck are really amazing. :D

Cool animations!
