  Export multiple instances of the same animation with different intros

  Posted by Paul Connors on November 13, 2017 at 2:38 pm

  Hi Guys,

  I’m looking for a workflow solution for the following setup:

  I have a “master” composition with an intro graphic that contains a placeholder for a company logo. After the intro is the rest of the video. For the first instance of the video I need to render both parts of the video – the intro and the main video. After that first render that “main video” is set in stone but the intro changes (company logo switches). What’s the best way to render out multiple instances of this video?

  A) Company A Logo + main video
  B) Company B Logo + main video
  C) Company C Logo + main video
  D) etc…

  I’m not sure how to now use that “prerendered” main video segment with the different intro versions. I want to use the output from the first render pass in subsequent versions of the video rather than needing to re-render the entire main video with every intro. Anyone know a good way of setting that up to render all the way through without having to manually swap out the logos and manually render?

  Thank you!
