Here's a cheeky tip - if you have a render hungry animation that comes to a stop, pre-compose those layers that are no longer moving and add a time-freeze to it. Huge time saver.
Not specifically rendering, but for previews; disabling some heavy effects like Glow, Blurs, etc helps to skim quickly through the timeline. I always disable the layers which aren't my point of focus and it helps incredibly. Awesome one @Black Mixture. I love your style, especially the GIFs xD.
There are so many UA-camrs talking about this stuff, many with huge subscriber bases. But NONE as good as you at NOT WASTING MY TIME! Entertaining too. QUESTION: It you have a fast external Thunderbolt 3 SSD, would that be put to best use for media or for a cache folder?
Thanks so much Vince! I'd recommend using your fastest drive for your cache. Your cache will be written to and accessed more often than your media files by After Effects, so having a fast drive for that will help keep your previews speedy.😊👍🏾
Check Intel Gamer Days for some dope deals! gamerdays.intel.com/ His recommended specs apply to a laptop about the same. Obviously you won't get the same GPU performance, but that isn't as important for most aftereffects work. Make sure the laptop has SSD storage (NVME is best) and at least 16gb of ram!
Thanks! You made this just in time (for me)! This greatly helped me pull the trigger on buying a new PC for editing as it made me feel confident that what had I put together was going to meet my needs. I may have gone a bit overboard on some specs (i9 10 core CPU, 64GB of RAM (2 slots), NVIDIA RTX 2080, 512 GB SSD + 2 TB HDD) but I only spent $2,000. Keep bringing that solid content!
@@itz_yeastic For the specs he cited, that _only_ makes a lot of sense. But then I guess maybe it does not include the money spent on monitors and shit.
thanks for this info... speed speed speed...never can get enough of it. Especially now that I am animating characters. A combo of Joystick, RubberHose etc can really slow things up!
Great vid I recently upgraded to 16GB ram but still found 0 results in performance boost so yeh I started watching these optimization vids and AE EATS A LOTTTTTT OFFFF RAAAAAMMMM If anyone is buying a Laptop for editing, remember to buy a great one already coz u cant upgrade it like PC's
incredible video! i’m building a high end i9 system but this vid helps w the software optimisation so i can get all the performance out of my soon to be new beast rig
Amazing video, even tough i work in AFX for a long time, there's really a few videos that explains how to set up and optimize the hardware and make a good usage of the things you have. Congrats and I'll be taking note of a few things, thanks!
Lets be honest Adobe products are RAM hungry, in order to get the most out of them the sweet spot is 32GB. I have 64GB because I also use 3rd party plugins, Element 3D, trapcode particular which are RAM consuming plugins. With RAM the more the merrier.
I just ordered an omen 17 with a i7 11800 and rtx 3060. This combination gets some of the highest after effects score. Im finally replacing my msi gt70 which i got like 15 years ago future proofed at the time and its just not able to keep up anymore. It has a 4 gig gtx 675mx which has been an amazing gpu for the time ive been using it. I also got ram to upgrade the omen 17 to 32 gigs of ram from 16.
Not sure either, but youtube hasn't been promoting our vids. Make sure to turn on notifications so you won't miss on any uploads. I appreciate your support tho 🙌🙏
with it in a few weeks or months if I pour enough ti and effort into it. I'll be watcNice tutorialng many more of your videos for tips and inspiration.
So...I've got a Ryzen9 5950x 16 cores-32threads(4.9Ghz turbo), 1T M2,1T SSD, 3090FE and 128GB RAM...my after effects is running SLOW AF... I am currently rendering a video in Media Encoder and it use up to 48% on gpu@35 degrees I'm going to watch the rest of the video..maybe you have some tips&tricks on how to make it go faster.
this is a very good presentation... lot of works the graphics visualizations make things are so easy to understand... thank you!!! Godbless you Black Mixture.
Whoa!!! So you are telling me that all the time and energy I spent on deciding a laptop was for nothing coz getting a ryzen laptop with nvidea graphics ain't gonna cut it? Oh man!!! After months and months of brainstorming and disturbing all my friends I had decided that I'll get the HP omen 2020 (ryzen)
Press caps lock when rendering. This will turn off playback as you render and cuts render time in half
great tip, thank you for sharing!
@@BlackMixture Thanks for the video!
Not really. It still has to do all the same calculations. The only time this works is if you are using a real garbage compute or (ugh) a laptop.
@@MAGAMAN yes, me right now.. not a bad laptop, just old.

I don’t get it
@@MrInterpriser i think hes just saying if the layers arent gonna move then just pre-compose the layer that isnt gonna move and add time freeze to it

Awesome one @Black Mixture. I love your style, especially the GIFs xD.
best after effects tutorials youtuber ever
awww you're so sweet! We appreciate you! Much love💖
Been using after effects for long time. But i have to admit this is the most amazing tutorial. God bless.
Awwww man, what a huge compliment! Thanks so much 😊
Which laptop are you using?
Him: you don’t need to buy those things
Also him literally seconds later: Oh and by the way, you need to buy a good graphics card, RAM and an SSD
Yes that sucks
Lmao my bad. The point is make the best you can with whatever you got 💯 less is always more
@@BlackMixture it’s been a year... you’re a legend. And since then I’ve bought everything I told was too expensive hahaha

Do you got any recommendations for a laptop that can run after effects? Loved the video btw ❤️🤞🏾
I'd appreciate a suggestion on this also.

Nice! I'm about to do something similar
**only spent 2000 dollars**
this literally killed me
@@itz_yeastic For the specs he cited, that _only_ makes a lot of sense. But then I guess maybe it does not include the money spent on monitors and shit.
Can you show a link where you bought the computer from?
Always love your videos! You are great at explaining complex things in a simple way.
I appreciate that, Jared! I am happy to help!!!
U made it simple man ur subscribers are well deserved
After Effects doesn’t benefit like C4D does from GPU usage. After effects benefits more from processors, storage and RAM.
thanks for this info... speed speed speed...never can get enough of it. Especially now that I am animating characters. A combo of Joystick, RubberHose etc can really slow things up!
thanks for the wisdom! All the best in your creating adventures.
No problem sir! Thanks so much!
Thanks for the great video it was very informative. I'll definitely start trying some of these techniques when AE is slowing down again.
Thanks man! You inspired us to make this video 💖

THANKS A LOT BRO I TRIED EVERY THING YOU SAID AND IT WORKED FOR ME
THANKS FROM MY BOTTOM OF THE HEART . ❤
Export your AE file from AE to Media Encoder will render your video even faster. Btw that Plastic Love is pretty dope
You know it😉
@@BlackMixture one more note that I need to add, Media Encoder can also compress your AE file into any formats such as mp4 while rendering
Very nice explanatory video!
Great video man !
Great job ❤️ Big thanks!
Can't wait to see your other videos.

Disculpa Una Pregunta Que Tal Te Va Con La Línea De Tiempo. La Visualización Es Fluida?
YES! I LOVE YOU!
how come after effects only uses 4 out of 32 cores of my Ryzen 9?? It's so annoying
thanks it was really usefull
You guys will get there soon. Just keep practicing I'll see you guys at the finish line

this is a very good presentation... lot of works the graphics visualizations make things are so easy to understand... thank you!!! Godbless you Black Mixture.
Appreciate you!
The truth is that the unknown scares all of us, but we just have to practice so we can get well with the software.
