#ADOBE AFTER EFFECT PLAY BUTTON MOVIE#
You design, animate, and prepare your movie in the Device Master composition, and then use the device-specific compositions for previews and to render for final output.īecause you're preparing this project for mobile devices as well as high-resolution devices, you'll begin by creating the compositions in Device Central, which is installed when you install After Effects. You create your compositions in Device Central-a Device Master composition, and a composition for each of the mobile devices you select. Using this information, you can create movies that play correctly and look as you intend on the mobile devices you choose. Adobe Device Central contains device profiles that provide information about these characteristics. Screen dimensions, video frame rates, and color gamuts vary greatly from one mobile device to another. Used with permission of Pearson Education, Inc.
