After-Effects-ExtendScript-Training-part-5

Part five of the After EFfects ExtendScript series by David Torno, posts coverage of accessing multiple items in After EFfects through ExtendScript, moving to the next steps by creating a larger multiple-line script and combining JavaScript code.

this week we will be accessing renderqueue items, templates, outputmodules, as well as the file output name and path

David shows how to use variables, “for” loops, and alerts(), with an example in accessing the After Effects render queue, showing how you are able to batch retrieve RenderQueue Items, Output Modules, and file output paths.

Parts one through four of David’s After Effects ExtendScript Training covering the basics of Javascript, the Adobe IDE, and the After Effects Object Model Structure can be found here.
