After Effects Apprentice 08: Nesting and Precomposing with Chris Meyer and Trish Meyer

Let Chris and Trish Meyer share with you two of the core secrets required to become an efficient After Effects user: understanding the render order (the internal order of operations After Effects uses when calculating masks, effects, transformation, track mattes, and layer styles) and the use of multiple compositions where a composition may be nested into one or more other comps. This makes it easier to group layers, efficiently re-use a common element to quickly accommodate client changes, pan around large composites of multiple layers, and solve render order issues.


Topics include:
Grouping layers by nesting and pre-composing
Identifying and solving render order issues
Navigating composition hierarchies
Editing a precomp while viewing the result in another composition
Preserving the frame rate of a nested composition
