thank you , but I must be doing that wrong, because I copy the effect to the new layer and that still does not work.

Low usage of processor

$

I am using after effects v16 latest update and I have 36 logical processor with 64gb RAM and Titan xp GPU

When ever I am using tools like camera track, noise reduction, motion tracking, stabilize or anything which require high usage of processing my AE hardly uses any hardware. I can see only 2 to 3% of processor and 1% of GPU and 20GB of memory(55.8GB allocated for AE) and I am not using any application in background and my processors are clocked at 4.1 GHz.

 

Why do AE in incapable of using maximum hardware?

I am tracking a footage of 6mins of full HD with clear tarck points (No scope for confusion in the footage and same scenario for other footage too)

Its been more than 40 hours now, but only 3 mins have been tracked.

What is the solution to make AE to utilize near 100% available hardware resource.

Try to purge your RAM and disk cash, go to edit/purge..

can you share a screenshoot including your work flow with all layer?

Really Puppet tools is very sensitive to the shape where you apply so if you try to copy the puppet effect from one layer to other and there a re any difference in layer size or so you will not be able to get the result you want and you will start see some glitch. the best way is create the puppet on the candle you want than duplicate the candle layer including the puppet effect.

There is no such thing. Sorry, but you don't seem to understand how AE works (or for that matter many video processing programs) and simply have bought the wrong computer. By its nature a lot of video processing strictly depends on linearly chewing through sequential frames, hence there can often be barely any parallelization and then you have to take a brute-force approach by having the most powerful single-threaded processor. A system with 36 physical cores clearly is not that and each individual core's efficiency will be quite low, in turn causing the long waits. Again, there are no magic switches or tricks here. You seriously need to use a different computer.

Hi, First of all thanks for the good explanation.

 

Everything worked, but I can not change the particles.

and do you know how it is possible to add the turbulence field on the particular effect. When I trie to add this nothing happens, only when i change the emitter type from layer to sphere.

 

For example like this->     Fluid Simulations w Particular | After Effects TUTORIAL - YouTube 

 

thank you in advance

I put the pins on the original shape, made the animation.  then duplicated the layers.  the layers are the exact same size .     the pins did not copy

 

Edit.   I found what I was doing wrong but it created a new problem

 

When I moved the new layer to the new position,  i did not highlight the pins, so the pins did not move.

 

new problem :  when I move the pins, the graphic "breaks"

Hi. Having multi cpu processors, tons of RAM and huge GPU's does NOT equate in general to faster performance or more usage of the CPU cores. All the hardware in the world won't make a difference unless the software architecture was designed to address them. Most applications are still single threaded and not multi threaded as the hype would make one believe. "Hyperthreading" was Intels and Microsofts biggest marketing hype but what they left out was that software developers weren't yet making any apps to utilize this technology feature. So essentially this is what happens (in layman terms)

 

You give an app like AE an instruction and the data is sent to the CPU and RAM. The next instruction follows the first BEHIND the first one. And so it goes, Its like a single conveyor belt type system. In parallel computing architecture instructions are sent in parallel stream and this is where having more CPU cores come in, The instruction is literally "split" in segments with different cores managing different parts of that instruction and as more instructions follow more cores take on the workload.

 

I trust this makes sense

Hi Denise

 

I would recommend the following

 

Uninstall AE with the Adobe Cleaner Tool

 

AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool.dmg

 

Allow it to remove all preferences. Reinstall and tell me how it goes

 

This might just fix your issue. If it doesn't there is probably a plugin that upon loading is corrupt and is stopping AE from launching.

We will look at that solution should the one above not work

Yes that what i'm typing before you post you reply right now, so if you move your object the pin will not move so you must precomp the candle and duplicate the precomp layer . to precomp the candle , selected than go to edit/pre-compose

Hi guys, any way I can achieve this ?

Shape layer bug in AE 2019 (v16)

If you start a new comp, draw a shape layer, then create another shape layer the previous layer jumps weirdly. Keep add ing a few more shape layers and it crashes.

So can't work in new version currently.

 

Mac running MacOS Sierra

I can't Mojave as that has caused issues with Dropbox grinding the machine to a halt!

All depends on how the footage was shot, how that person is lit but first step could be in AE effects called Motion Trails and many some Glow.

The shot is shot at home on a green screen, a bit amateur, just for a test.

I'll try motion trails, thank you !
