  Hi,
  Does anybody know how do we make some templates projects (.aet) from an After Effects project (aep) ? Thanks ! Denis

  No, you can’t do that. That ground is exclusive Adobe territory. ;o)

  Here’s an article that will explain the process. It’s essentially as simple as saving your project via the “save as” command and changing the suffix to .aet. Then the compositions within that project will function as templates that will be ready for modification. Bear in mind that when you save a template file, any changes you make to said template will disolve if you fail to resave the template again. I typically save it with an alternate name and a version number to let me cycle through them quickly.

  Yes, simply renaming will give some functionality, but I think he was more after having those previews which you can’t do that way. ;O)

  What is the difference between an .aep and an .aet? And what the purpose would be?

  Thanks
