4. Click the triangle to expand the Render Settings options. By default, After Effects renders
compositions with Best Quality and Full Resolution. The default settings are fine for this
project.
5. Click the triangle to expand the Output Module options. By default, After Effects uses
lossless compression to encode the rendered composition into a movie file, which is fine for
this project. But you need to identify where to save the file.
6. Click the blue words next to the Output To menu.

7. In the Output Movie To dialog box, accept the default movie name (Destinations), select the
Lessons/Lesson02/Finished_Project folder for the location, and then click Save.
8. Back in the Render Queue panel, click the Render button.

After Effects displays a progress bar in the Render Queue panel as it encodes the file, and issues
an audio alert when all items in the Render Queue have been rendered and encoded.


9. When the movie is complete, double-click the Render Queue tab to restore your workspace.
10. If you want to see your final product, double-click the Destinations.avi or Destinations.mov
file in the Lessons/Lesson02/Finished_Project folder to open it in Windows Media Player or
QuickTime, and then play the file.
