  Automate importing and rendering

  Posted by Barak Ziv on December 5, 2008 at 9:50 pm

  Hi, many thanks to anyone and everyone who can provide help.

  I have multiple sequences in different folders. (About hundred different sequences, each one in it’s own folder) I’m looking for:

  1. A way to automate importing them into After Effects, without the need to click ctrl+alt+I and go into one folder, then go into the other folder etc in order to bring them in.

  2. automate the rendering- each one should be rendered at the same format, a divx movie. I know how to set a default in the render queue, but instead of assiging the different sequences to different comps myself ( i know it’s possible with one drag to the comp icon to create multipul comps, but still) and then render them. Also- is there a way to automate the name for the output, even if it’s differet from the sequence name (for example- movie_1,movie_2 etc;)

  I basically wonder if there’s a script or an efficient workflow for that. Mostly for the first question.

  Thank you very much, I appreciate the help.
