  • How should I manage a steadily growing library of After Effects Projects?

    Posted by Tom Lee on October 29, 2012 at 7:18 pm

    I’ve slowly accumulated After Effects Projects and want to create a browsable directory of them. Has anyone done this.

    I have each project in its own folder which contains a still image of the project and a preview video of what the final output will look like.

    Is it possible to somehow use the Finder’s folder directories to create some sort of Gallery?

    Or any better ideas? Can Bridge do this somehow?

    Thanks,

    Tad

    Thanks,

    Adobe Bridge will do this job. Just Copy all the Project folders into one New Folder and then Open Adobe Bridge though AE. Now, Browse to the directory of your New Folder and Drag it to the Favorites Collection.

    Whenever you will open Bridge next time, You New Folder will be there to access easily from Favorites Collection.
    By this you can simply Preview all the images and Video files right there in Bridge. Also you can Import the project file.
