    Someone may have said this already but here's how (I do it for my reels probably a few hundred times).

    Export as video. It'll export everything, even nested and animation-scripted movie clips. Make sure all of the Quicktime settings are correct (especially size, because it may default to your last used size). If you're having issues exporting (like it fails), try adjusting how long it exports for (i.e. set it to export 20 seconds), and then choose if it's using ram or using HD. Depending on how long or complex it is, you may have to use HD option. If you need alpha transparency, select that option in the QT panel that pops up. Export as QT.

    Then once you have the video. Use After Effects to do whatever to it (trim, scale it, etc). Then export as GIF out of AE.

    Sometimes a PNG sequence works but with nested clips it has issues a lot of times.
