  Script to manage keyframes

  Posted by Romain Charles on January 5, 2015 at 4:59 pm

  Hello, Happy New Year!! 😉

  I have this project with a lot of animations and a voice to synchronise with.
  I’ve split the animation in 20 compositions and then have regrouped them into one global, with the voice (having markers on it to help me).
  I was wondering if there was a way to manage the keyframes inside the 20 compositions, without having to open each comp, and constantly switching between them and the global to follow markers, to test synchronisation.
  What about having some keyframes in expression controls added to the 20 compositions, used as markers (using expressions) for (groups of) keyframes inside the composition ?
  Or copy all the keyframes in expression controls linked to the concerned properties inside the comp, to manage easily ? If only a script could automatically do that..

  What do you think ?

  Is this the sort of thing you envision?
