CGTalk - render = crash

built a little logo animation, did a half-res render, got it approved, went to final render and got this:

After Effects error: crash occured while invoking effect plug-in "VideoLook 2"

so i tired a few of the basics, restarting, double-cheking the file, etc. but no dice. i can ram cache the shot but i can't render it? i don't get it.

any thoughts?

hi,
it sounds you have to forget your videolook effect,
i try to use less as possible plugin' effects cause of that,
a lot of effects bugs. i've problem with some final effects, some digimation plugins too, and many others...
did you try to render it without the videolook ?

oh, i realize it's the plugin.

the problem is that the shot's already been approved as it is, so now i need to render it at full res with the same plugin...

what confuses me is that it renders perfectly at half res but as soon as i try to render full res i get that same error. is there maybe a ram issue or something? i dunno?

my 'plan b' is to completely rebuild the shot and simulate the plugin's effect by hand. i can do that but it'd be very time consuming and given that the shot is already 'done' i'd really like to just render the damn thing.

thanks,

Have you tried baking out everything up to the plugin?
