  AE collaborative project workflow advise ?

  Posted by Xav Vonl on April 22, 2018 at 1:17 pm

  Hi everyone,
  I’m starting a team-project in after-effects where several artists, including myself, will be working on individual project files, all of which will be aggregated in a “master” AE project, handled by me.

  My question is :

  instead of loading an aep as usual, like a composition, in a new in a new project, is there a way to work with “children” aep’s within a “parent” aep, with children aep’s being used as “reference files”, or whatever you would call them, just like a regular footage, in such a way that when a child aep is edited and saved, the master aep gets updated with the changes ? (like it would be with, per say, a psd file) ?

  Fingers crossed 🙂

  Thanks for your input Dave,

  yes that was my question, other than importing one aep within another “the regular way” and then obviously it would not update anymore and it can quickly be a huge mess…..
  As for Adobe Team, I haven’t experienced it myself but from the videos I’ve seen online, I’m nowhere neare to being convinced, to say the least…..
