Telegram Animated Sticker Tutorial

here for the fried rice

this is so annoying why doesn't telegram just allow people to upload animated GIFs as stickers with transparent backgrounds? It would be so much easier

你好，为什么我的tgs文件生产了，上传到telegram的时候显示空白呢？

do you know how to make a glossy effect on the animated object? I wonder if there is any masking tool we can use in after effect, since i used the masking technique but when I render it, it says "no masking is allowed" but i have seen someone done it.. thank you

When attempting to render I keep getting "Render Failed! Composition should not include any images".

In illustrator 2023 I drew a square shape, saved that as an .ai file with default settings, imported that as composition in an empty After Effects 2023 project, made a new composition, dragged just the imported .ai file to the timeline, and exported that composition using the extension - I did exactly what this video shows.

Any idea what might be happening here?

I had after effect open and it still worked

Nice one

hy thanks for the great tutorial, I follow every step but the sticker is comlpetely transparent when imported to the sticker bot :(

Bodymoving only renders in JSON. I cant make it render in .TGS. Any suggestions?

Please I need help
When I'm done exporting to tgs file my animation brings up this grey looking background and all the parts scatter.

Please can you help??

Okay when I import images to edit I get an error. Composition should not contain any images. How do I edit the file inside AE so when I try to render as tsg it doesnt do this. There has to be a way people make custom animated stickers all the time featuring popular icons etc.

thanks for such a straightforward tutorial! it's been a very useful foundation! :)

so many thanks bro

Having an issue and I'm losing my mind. It keeps saying the file is a video it's. A gif. I don't get this at all so maddening!

so when I click on create shapes from vector layer my layers turn grey and the whole picture is filled

RENDER FAILED! Composition should not include any images.

Please help.

how to make multiple shape layers into one to add puppet tools effect? I've tried pre-compose, when I export it to a tgs file, the puppet effect doesn't exist

Hi! When I add an image (ai) and try to render it, I get the message, failed because it can’t render images. How to change this?

It Dosent work

does this also work with already made PNG images? I opened it in illustrator and resized to 512x512 saved it as .ai - opened it in after effects and did all the steps.
for some reason when I richt click the .ai file --> create shapes from vector layer it just makes the image grey (when I click on fill and make it transparent I still cant see my image anymore - its just plain white.)

I do see the selected area moving when I go through my timeline like the image should move because of the keyframes I placed.
Dont know if there is a solution for this?

i can't install the plugins... keeps saying error -193 :((((

Excellent video, thank you!
.
Possible errors and solutions within the export plugin for telegram:

duration error: In composition settings indicate duration of 3 seconds or less

Very helpful tutorial. I tried using Gradient Fill for the stickers, but it rendered weirdly with the color kinda off when preview in telegram. Have you tried with Gradient before? Whats the best way to do it ?

Use the parent/link list to stick the hand to the wrist, so it will follow the path of your animated arm

What file do you save in for the final work

Can I do that with a gif image?

Any advice for getting the sticker to be less than 64kb?
