Doubtlessly, Adobe After Effects is one of the best tools and backbone for graphic designer and motion graphic maniacs.

- Why does AME stop after a few seconds of rendering, like right before it goes into the clips it freezes. It doesnt say anything about the clips being corrupted. I can still use AME whilst the rendering is frozen there. My clips didnt work at first in AE because they were AVIs.
- Reset preferences for Adobe Media Encoder. Make sure that Adobe Media Encoder and After Effects are closed in your machine (while following the steps). Quit Adobe Media Encoder and After Effects. Open the Finder, hold Option, and click Go on the menu bar.
You know that YouTube is the second largest search engine out there. Whenever, you create a channel professionally, you supposed to do some branding.

Therefore, Adobe After Effects can create eye-catching intro video for your YouTube channel. Although, it takes few minutes or hours for a newbie but professional Adobe After Effects users can do that within few moments. That is pretty good.
