00:00:00,650 --> 00:00:06,880

Hi guys there's a special lecture to answer a few questions that came up in the Q&A.



2

00:00:07,130 --> 00:00:10,910

I always encourage you to ask all your questions.



3

00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:18,160

The question was if you change the time in the making position how do you fix the time for a pre-camp



4

00:00:18,250 --> 00:00:21,740

or any other lead that you have in the main opposition.



5

00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,290

It's a very easy very simple go me step by step.



6

00:00:26,570 --> 00:00:30,590

Let's say you have here a make camp that is five seconds inside.



7

00:00:30,740 --> 00:00:33,080

There is a pre-camp and some other letters.



8

00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:38,830

It really doesn't matter what kind of place now you want to extend the time here to 10 seconds.



9

00:00:38,870 --> 00:00:39,970

How do you do that.



10

00:00:39,980 --> 00:00:42,730

You most probably already know you right click.



11

00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:47,190

You go to composition setting and you set the time for 10 seconds.



12

00:00:47,190 --> 00:00:47,860

Here you are.



13

00:00:47,990 --> 00:00:49,680

So this is 10 seconds.



14

00:00:49,700 --> 00:00:51,000

You click OK.



15

00:00:51,020 --> 00:00:53,920

Now you notice the zoom here is still fixed.



16

00:00:53,930 --> 00:00:55,800

It did not change the zoom for you.



17

00:00:55,910 --> 00:01:02,670

You needed to zoom out and you notice that the pre-camp still has its own five seconds.



18

00:01:02,690 --> 00:01:04,120

This how it was created.



19

00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,470

And all the other layers has been cut off at five seconds.



20

00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:13,630

Well this makes sense aftereffects is not going to increase the time of your leg.



21

00:01:13,670 --> 00:01:15,820

This was just a solid leg.



22

00:01:15,860 --> 00:01:18,500

It will keep it at the original time.



23

00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:26,910

If you create a new text for example over here and you see any text you'll notice now that the text



24

00:01:26,910 --> 00:01:29,460

has gone to the end of the composition.



25

00:01:29,460 --> 00:01:31,630

This is a preference that is set.



26

00:01:31,710 --> 00:01:35,100

But nevertheless I am sure you have it until the end.



27

00:01:35,100 --> 00:01:42,390

Now you'll notice that you have the old letters that are five seconds and you would like this to continue.



28

00:01:42,390 --> 00:01:44,910

Otherwise it would cut off here to do that.



29

00:01:44,910 --> 00:01:46,320

It's very easy.



30

00:01:46,320 --> 00:01:48,610

There are two ways to do it.



31

00:01:48,660 --> 00:01:52,200

The first method is to come to the left here go to its end.



32

00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:58,660

And when your mouse is like double arrow right left and right you just click on it and you extend it.



33

00:01:58,830 --> 00:02:00,290

That's one way to do it.



34

00:02:00,300 --> 00:02:03,330

What if you had 10 layers what will happen.



35

00:02:03,330 --> 00:02:06,120

Let me duplicate this 10 times or something like this.



36

00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:11,560

Now you have very many players taking each one of them and attaching it to the end won't work.



37

00:02:11,670 --> 00:02:18,390

What do you select all the layers you take the timeline indicator and you put at the end or simply you



38

00:02:18,390 --> 00:02:25,440

can press the end key there is a shortcut that I mentioned several times in the course but now I'm going



39

00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:32,880

to be specific it is art or option on the Mac and the Arite square brackets you can see it on your screen



40

00:02:33,210 --> 00:02:35,300

the right square bracket here.



41

00:02:35,470 --> 00:02:40,430

It will extend all the layers till the timeline indicator.



42

00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,510

I will undo this.



43

00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:48,660

So if you put your time line indicator before and select all your layers and press alt option on the



44

00:02:48,660 --> 00:02:55,380

Mac and right square bracket it will stretch them or it will extend them if you like stretching extending



45

00:02:56,150 --> 00:02:57,730

the time line indicate.



46

00:02:57,900 --> 00:02:59,410

Then go back and do it again.



47

00:02:59,460 --> 00:03:05,360

Here you are of course the same will happen if you want to cut off your layers.



48

00:03:05,490 --> 00:03:12,870

At this point for example you can use option or alt on Windows and the left square brackets here.



49

00:03:13,050 --> 00:03:14,400

You know that's what happened.



50

00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:19,170

It has cut them off from the beginning till the time line indicates.



51

00:03:19,190 --> 00:03:22,540

So now you know how to extend these letters left and right.



52

00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:25,810

But the trick here does YOUR has content.



53

00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,860

In our case here it just is solid.



54

00:03:27,860 --> 00:03:36,350

It has constant Let's focus on the pickup play can be short and not is that I have a black small triangle



55

00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:37,720

here and another one.



56

00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,460

If I click and try to drag is not going to work at all.



57

00:03:41,460 --> 00:03:43,230

Not left not right.



58

00:03:43,470 --> 00:03:44,850

So how do you fix that.



59

00:03:46,060 --> 00:03:47,400

Let's open the play comp.



60

00:03:47,410 --> 00:03:52,090

I can just double click on it and you notice the pick up his five seconds.



61

00:03:52,100 --> 00:03:52,980

OK let's.



62

00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:59,770

It's time to for example 10 seconds or even more right Right-Click go to composition setting and choose



63

00:03:59,790 --> 00:04:02,180

a time to 10 seconds.



64

00:04:02,180 --> 00:04:06,310

Here you are even 15 seconds if you like or whatever time you want.



65

00:04:06,310 --> 00:04:07,870

I would click OK.



66

00:04:07,870 --> 00:04:09,970

Now of course it did not zoom in.



67

00:04:09,970 --> 00:04:11,710

It gets it at the same zoom.



68

00:04:11,770 --> 00:04:13,070

So you need to zoom in.



69

00:04:13,330 --> 00:04:19,750

And you notice here the is being cut and then it's difficult cut because this player has been moved



70

00:04:19,750 --> 00:04:21,220

just like this.



71

00:04:21,220 --> 00:04:21,710

OK.



72

00:04:21,910 --> 00:04:24,200

So you need to extend this players.



73

00:04:24,310 --> 00:04:24,910

Why.



74

00:04:24,910 --> 00:04:31,230

Because if you come back to the main camp you'll notice now it is open to be extended.



75

00:04:31,390 --> 00:04:32,830

But there is no content here.



76

00:04:32,830 --> 00:04:36,140

If you notice at six seconds you got your pick up.



77

00:04:36,220 --> 00:04:37,720

There is no content.



78

00:04:37,750 --> 00:04:43,610

So you need to extend the last provided that I have content and then not videos of course.



79

00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:49,580

So you select all your players here you are and then you put the timeline indicator at the end.



80

00:04:49,630 --> 00:04:52,750

Of course you can stretch them one by one if you like.



81

00:04:52,750 --> 00:04:53,830

That's no problem.



82

00:04:54,070 --> 00:05:00,600

But then the best way to press alt or option on the Mac and the right square back.



83

00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:07,580

So now all the players are going till the end of this pre-camp if you come back to the main camp and



84

00:05:07,610 --> 00:05:14,510

now you need to extend it while you can use alt or option or right bracket or click on it and just stretch



85

00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:15,520

it at the end.



86

00:05:15,790 --> 00:05:18,850

I would go for the ultra right back.



87

00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,270

Not here you have the black rectangle again.



88

00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:26,880

It means this is the end of this pre-camp and this is the beginning of the pick.



89

00:05:27,340 --> 00:05:29,560

Actually that's all there is to it.



90

00:05:29,710 --> 00:05:35,800

If you have a short main composition you will extend its time through its settings and then go back



91

00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:43,150

to your pre-camp and also extend its time and extends the layers and come back to your main compeer



92

00:05:43,450 --> 00:05:51,290

and also extend all the layers using the arrow or using the alt or option right brackets.



93

00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:52,930

Thank you very much for listening.



94

00:05:52,930 --> 00:05:58,380

I hope this was helpful and I hope I summarized it in a concise way.



95

00:05:58,390 --> 00:06:02,480

It's pretty easy by the way and that you need to get used to it.



96

00:06:02,530 --> 00:06:08,830

So from now on don't create a short Gump's create lumber camps and then shorten them.



97

00:06:08,860 --> 00:06:10,030

That will be easy.



98

00:06:10,270 --> 00:06:10,880

Thank you.



99

00:06:10,890 --> 00:06:12,170

I'll see you in the next election.
