I have just started animating yesturday and I have exported my first 7 second shot from dragonframe. But there is slight grain and slightly noticable flicker. Can someone help give some walkthrough advice in After Effects to fix this problem?
Could you please post images of the problem so that it is easier to help you?
When I loop the images at 15 fps, there is a slight amount of noise, a result of the grainy look. There is also a slight amount of flicker on the yellow wall. I did some research and DSLR cameras might be because of this... IDK... UGH! 
Help someone... please.
What camera are you using?
A canon t2i
Hello Lucas, that grain can becaused by many reason, A: your ISO is too high which can cause camera noise (grain).
B: your camera settings need to be changed I.E: use a lower aperture and higher shutter speed or vice versa. And C: your lighting. I would suggest lowering your ISO alot over lighting the set so you can have a higher shutter speed without needing a major drop in your Aperture. Good luck and if you have any questions I can always help out.

Thank you! That is the most likely reason from my standpoint. I will retake the shot tomorrow with the correct settings. Also Shutterpoint, I sent you a contact request on Skype earlier today. Once again, if you need assistance on the DC and Marvel Project, we can collaborate on Skype.
It Worked! Thank you so much Shutterpoint!
