One quick way to kill editing momentum is to start a render. It’s necessary, but can be painful waiting for your motion graphics or video editing app to process your project. In the past, I’ve always twiddled my thumbs while rendering in After Effects (or jump over to a different program). Now, here’s a better way.

Whenever you add effects, images, or video clips, After Effects must render the results for you to preview or export. This process is largely done in the background, without your knowledge. But sometimes during the final export, rendering problems can pop up unexpectedly.

In this video by DigitalSandwich.net, you’ll see how to use Adobe Media Encoder to do background rendering in After Effects. After saving your After Effects project file, open up Encoder. Bring the AE file into Encoder and target a composition to render. It’s as simple as that.

Note however, background rendering in After Effects (using Encoder) will not be as fast as if you were actually rendering in AE. Glen from DigitalSandwich explains that Adobe products place the highest priority on the application that is at the forefront of your system (the one you are actively using). So, if you’re working in AE while you’re rending your After Effects project in the background using Encoder, After Effects will get a higher percentage of your available RAM. The trade off here is that youre actually able to keep working. In that case, I’ll take the slower render speed.
