Importing Photoshop Images
I’m making a simple animation, and the easiest way for me to draw things is to use layers in Photoshop — copying over the previous “frame” (the previous layer) with slight changes.
What is the best and easiest way for me to import these into AE?
I know that I can put them into groups, but that’s time consuming for some reason I end up with two copies of each image in AE.
Is there anyway for me to get AE to separate the layers into individual files? No layer has any styles, as of now.
Thanks,
Mike

What version of PS?

Sorry, I have the CS3 Production Suite.

Look at the animation timeline… you can then save this as a frame based animation and then export it as a MOV or just import the PSD into AE CS3

So you’re saying I can save in in PS as a frame-based animation? Cool, I’ll check that out.
I did finally get it to import. I can’t remember exactly what I did, but I think it was “import as footage” but not highlighting the “Photoshop sequence” box.
Yesterday I had that box clicked, and I just got one big merged file. (I think.)
