Great tips. Thank you

These are greeat tips for anyone who hasn't implemented them yet!
An additional tip about label colors, which I learned from a School of Motion video, is to lable your comps according to their hirarchie. So, for example, the main comps are red, the next level of comps within them are orange, then yellow and so on. Then you can sort by lable color in the project window and have your comps sorted by hirarchie!

That's a very good tip, will definitely try this out on my next project. Thanks for the tip!

12 years ago when I first started with AE I tried to change the label colours and it wasn't possible. I never checked it again until today on this video, I feel my life is about to get a lot better! XD

Is there a way to create a folder within the proejct itself? Or is that just making another precomposition.
