By far the easiest/most functional way of doing this that I've found, no expressions required. Thanks for the video!

Thanks for this tip! I was working on an AE project and needed to incorporate a simple timer into it. Your video saved me a ton of time. (Actually, without your video, I just couldn't have done it. 😃) And thanks for keeping your video just short enough to explain the steps correctly. You're a real lifesaver (and timesaver, too) !

Stumbled upon your video looking for a "timer after effects" Thanks for the detailed video. Everything is clear and concise with you. I have a video 24:59:59 - 60fps * (on your video 1:29), if I set the timecode[30] my timer becomes 30fps! How to get 60 frames per second? Special thanks for the font, when I used Uni Sans Heavy there were big spaces between the numbers. And now how to transfer from Ae to Premiere Pro?

Hi there! Great question. I looked into it and I would make the effect at 30fps, but once you pre-compose the composition, make the original composition at 60fps. So essentially you have a 30fps comp inside a 60fps comp. To get the composition into premiere, with both programs open, you can click and drag the composition from the project panel in after effects into the project panel in premiere. Premiere then basically imports that composition. This a cool new feature Adobe recently added. Hope this helps!

Great question. Unfortunately you can't using this method. But you might find value in this video below: kzitem.info/news/bejne/tYuin3Z_noJ8m20 You can manually animate numbers. So say you can have your first keyframe be 72 and the last keyframe be 0. Just make sure that your composition is 72 minutes long.

You can try adding the effect called "Fill" to the layer. This will allow you to change the color of any layer in a composition. Hope this helps!

You can try pre-composing the countdown timer composition. And then change that new pre-comp to 50fps by going up to Composition > Composition Settings If you want to see how to pre-compose layers, feel free to check out my video below. kzitem.info/news/bejne/q55st5ZqrWWJnqQ Cheers!

Thanks! I would try and make the composition one second longer. You might have to go back to the beginning but if you make it 20:01 that should give you enough frames to have it start at 20:00. You can trim the layer as well if it is too long by dragging the side of the layer in the timeline. Hope this helps!

Thanks! I'm glad the tutorial helped. You don't have to pre-compose the layer if you don't plan on using a mask to remove unwanted decimals. I found that if you want to mask out the milliseconds or hours, the mask won't work unless the layer is pre-composed. Hope this helps explain!

@@johnthevideoguy Actually I have another problem. Since I did the countdown effect, every new composition I create now has a countdown background. It looks my comp setting is normal, and there's no effect on the comp. No matter what I do, like creating a new project to start a new comp, the numbers doesn't go away. Do you happen to know why?

That's odd. It sounds like a cache issue. I'd try cleaning your AE cache by going to preferences > Media & Disk Cache. There's a clean database & cache button. That might solve the problem.
