Creating a render-settings template


You can create render-settings templates for different circumstances. For example, you could
create templates for rendering draft copies for review, high-res versions, or different frame rates.


To create a render-settings template, choose Edit > Templates > Render Settings. In the Settings
area of the Render Settings Template dialog box, click New to create a new template. Then select
the appropriate settings for the template. For Settings Name, type a name that describes the
template’s purpose or use (for example, Test_lowres). Click OK when you’ve made the changes.


Render-settings templates you’ve saved are available on the Render Settings pop-up menu in the
Render Queue panel.


Creating templates for output modules


You can use a similar process to create a template for output-module settings. Each output-
module template includes unique combinations of settings appropriate for a specific type of
output.


To create a template, choose Edit > Templates > Output Module to open the Output Module
Templates dialog box. In the Settings area, click New to create a new template. Then select the
appropriate settings for the template. Name the template to indicate the output it will generate,
and click OK to close the dialog box.


Output-module templates you’ve saved are available on the Output Module pop-up menu in the
Render Queue panel.


Rendering movies with Adobe Media Encoder


Your movie is ready for final output. Adobe Media Encoder, which is installed when you install
After Effects, has the widest selection of codecs available for different delivery formats,
including popular video services such as YouTube.


Note
If Adobe Media Encoder is not currently installed on your system, install it from
Creative Cloud.

Rendering a broadcast-quality movie


First, you’ll select settings to render your movie in a quality suitable for broadcast.
