Adobe CS3 "Snap shot" help

[Michael Pick]

I have Adobe After Effects CS3 Pro. When I click on the camera button under the comp screen, I hear a camera click, then nothing happens....

Where does After Effects save the snap shot from my footage? Please Help!:violin:

What are you trying to accomplish? If you are trying to save an image file, you do that through file/export/Image sequence.

The snapshot feature is only for a A/B reference frame by frame. I believe this only stores the image to cache. If you move the timeline and then click the person icon, this will show you the last frame "snapshot"

Hope this helps.

Thanks for answering me! I just have one more question...

When I click on export Image sequence, Adobe renders ALL of my video frames... So now I have like 1800 jpeg files/pictures on my desktop. Is there any way that I could just pick the one frame that I want to export?

Go to Composition -> Save Frame As and it will export the frame you are on.

It worked perfectly! Thanks!
