  Importing AE projects into other AE projects.

  Posted by Brett Triantafillou on July 30, 2015 at 1:05 pm

  I want to create an AE project and then import that project into several AE projects. Lets say after I have done so I want to make edits to the first AE project that is used in the several projects.

  If I make the edits to that main AE project how can I make it update in the other AE projects?

  Sorry if this is confusing but maybe this explanation will help.

  I have one AE project that has several medical slides in seperate comps. I am going to use them in 3 separate videos so I created 3 AE projects for each video. Now they all use the same slides and animations.

  THEN,

  I had edits to the slides and wanted to make the edits to that main Slide comp and not have to make the same edits to 3 different projects.

  Its like if I edited a resource say a video and used that in three different AE projects. All I would have to do is edit that video and rerender it and it would update in the project. But imported AE projects dont really do that OR do they?

  I hope this makes sense sorry its so long.

  I keep meaning to try this, but I haven’t given it a proper spin yet. The tin says it does what you want:
