Re: What to do when AE just won't render?

That's a great idea. Mind if I ask for some advice though - I take it it's not as simple as just creating proxies. If I understand correctly, rendering out a proxy is a means of creating working files. When you go to render the final comp AE will re-render those files you've created proxies for. Am I corrrect?

Therefore I'll need to disable the other layers in my comp. However, as I mentioned earlier, two of the four Particular layer are psuedo-shadows. How do I set the comp up so that when I re-import the rendered file it will retain transparency etc?

Thanks for your answer, really appreciate you taking the time.
