See Render and export with the Render Queue panel. You need a compressed movie that will be played on the web, or used for DVD or Blu- ray disc. To create a high- quality movie file that is compressed for the web, DVD, or Blu- ray disc, encode it using the Adobe Media Encoder. See The Adobe Media Encoder.
Note: Some. kinds of exporting don’t involve rendering and are for intermediate stages. For example, you can export.

Dynamic Link is not rendered. A movie can be made into a single output file that contains all the rendered frames, or it can be made into a sequence of still images (as you would do when creating output for a film recorder). To generate output, you can either render your compositions using the After Effects render queue or add your compositions to the Adobe Media Encoder queue with the render settings that you have chosen in the Render Queue panel. For the Render Queue, After Effects uses an embedded version of the Adobe Media Encoder to encode most movie formats through the Render Queue panel. When you manage render and export operations with the Render Queue panel, the embedded version of the Adobe Media Encoder is called automatically.
The Adobe Media Encoder appears only in the form of the export settings dialog boxes with which you specify some encoding and output settings. When you place a composition into the Render Queue panel, it becomes a render item.
You can add many render items to the render queue, and After Effects can render multiple items in a batch, unattended. When you click the Render button in the upper- right corner of the Render Queue panel, all items with the status of Queued are rendered and output in the order in which they are listed in the Render Queue panel. Note: You do not need to render a movie multiple times to export it to multiple formats with the same render settings. You can export multiple versions of the same rendered movie by adding output modules to a render item in the Render Queue panel. When working with multiple render items, it is often useful to add comments in the Comment column in the Render Queue panel. If the Comment column is not visible, right- click (Windows) or Control- click (Mac OS) a column heading, and choose Columns > Comment.
In the Render Queue panel, you can manage several render items at once, each with its own render settings and output module settings. Render settings determine the following characteristics: Output frame rate. Duration. Resolution. Layer quality. Output module settings—which are applied after render settings—determine post- rendering characteristics such as the following: Output format. Compression options. Cropping. Whether to embed a link to the project in the output file.
You can create templates that contain commonly used render settings and output module settings. Using the Render Queue panel, you can render the same composition to different formats or with different settings, all with one click of the Render button: You can output to a sequence of still images, such as a Cineon sequence, which you can then transfer to film for cinema projection. You can output using lossless compression (or no compression) to a Quick. Time container for transfer to a non- linear editing (NLE) system for video editing. You. can select, duplicate, and reorder render items using many of the.

Choose Composition > Add To Render Queue. Drag the composition to the Render Queue panel. Note: To create a composition from a footage item and immediately add that composition to the render queue, drag the footage item from the Project panel to the Render Queue panel. It is a convenient way to convert a footage item from one format to another. Click the triangle next to the Output To heading in the. Render Queue panel to choose a name for the output file based on.

As After. Effects renders the item, you are unable to work in the program. You cannot rerender a completed item, but you can duplicate it to create a new item in the queue with the same settings or with new settings.
Note: After an item has been rendered, you can import the finished movie as a footage item by dragging its output module from the Render Queue panel into the Project panel.

Select the source composition for a render item in the Project panel: Right- click (Windows) or Control- click (Mac OS) the render item and choose Reveal Composition In Project from the context menu. Remove a render item from the render queue (change its status from Queued to Unqueued): Deselect the item entry in the Render column. The item remains in the Render Queue panel. Change the status of a render item from Unqueued to Queued: Select the item in the Render column. Remove a render item from the Render Queue panel: Select the item and press Delete, or choose Edit > Clear.
