When adding effect preview screen goes red, HELP!

[alexk39909443]

Hi Guys,

When I am adding an 1 effect to a clip it is fine but when i go to add another the preview screen of the clip gets a red overlay over the whole screen.

How do I get rid of this?

Thank you,

- Alex

That's not much to go on.  Here's a guess -- you added the Fill effect to a layer, and Fill defaults to red.  The fix: delete the effect.

And don't EVER try to use AE intuitively.  One of two things is bound to happen -- you'll get hopelessly lost or you'll fail.  Neither is good.  Instead, learn the Basics of AE.  Walk before you run.  And learn from a PRO and not some high school kid on YouTube:
