Let’s speed up your render times\u2014and workflow\u2014in After Effects with these handy settings and hardware tips.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rendering is an annoying (but unavoidable) aspect of the motion graphics process. However, you can take a few steps to make your After Effects renders <\/strong>as fast as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

1. Enable Multi-Frame Rendering<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The first setting you need to turn on for faster renders is Enable Multi-Frame Rendering<\/strong>. In short, the more cores your CPU has, the more frames After Effects can render simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To enable this, navigate to Edit > Preferences > Memory & Performance<\/strong>. To learn more, check out Adobe’s After Effects User Guide on Multi-Frame Rendering<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Optimize RAM Reserved for Other Applications<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You need to tell After Effects how much RAM it should reserve for other applications. In After Effects, navigate to Edit > Preferences > Memory & Performance<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From there, you can set the RAM Reserved for Other Applications<\/strong>. In most cases, you can set this to the minimum value After Effects allows. (Usually around 10% of your total RAM.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
