1. first we convert footage to monochrome/grey scale, then drop in a sepia effect (red giant/magic bullet), then the 3rd pass is the scratches/hair for the old film look Keying off of your use of the word then, note you dont have to actually apply effects to the clips in any particular order, you only have to ensure the stacking order in the Effect Controls panel is correct. Note you can drag effects up and down in the Effect Controls panel. This is useful when you want to experiment or try some what-ifs.

Lee, thanks as usual for your thorough reply. i have not read it all carefully yet since i am at work, but i can answer a few of your questions: the clips we are trying to render are less than a minute. I have details at home on exactly how many frames & how far it got before freezing. The effects in question: it's actually 3 layered effects i guess. first we convert footage to monochrome/grey scale, then drop in a sepia effect (red giant/magic bullet), then the 3rd pass is the scratches/hair for the old film look. these are being done 1 at a time, rendered, then put the next effect on. i realize this is quite processor intensive- does the rendering process have to re-render each effect each time- like-is it rendering all 3 levels of effects every time? i tend to think not- what's done is done- and now we change it again- but i'm not sure. graphics card is an Nvidea- can't recall the model right now- but it is a 1 gb card.
the processor is the i7-920 btw, and i'm thinking the ram is the DDR3 variety-but don't quote me on that yet! And we are using CS4- for some reason I thought we had 5. does that make a difference in that we are using the 64-bit version of Windows 7? I'm hoping for an "AHA" moment here... looking forward to the next round of diagnostics from you- this is actually quite interesting to me. By the way- my husband is the "artist" of our team in this case- he just wants to film & edit without all this technical "nonsense". I am pretty much the "tech-girl" since i know more about that end of things (not nearly as much as the folks here in the group). --- In [email protected] <mailto:Adobe-Premiere%40yahoogroups.com> , Lee Menningen <l_mennin...@...> wrote: > > Adriane mentioned that manually rendering, even in bits and pieces, fails, > unless the duration selected is very short, but no mention was made re: how > short these were.
