NT PRoductions shows how you can search through a large number of Ae projects.

If you need to look through a ton of After Effects projects, don’t just open them up one by one and look through them. You can automate the process by creating a functional script. In this latest Ae scripting tutorial, NT Production’s Nathan Lovell takes us through creating a batch search script.

The script will allow you to search for items and footage throughout a large number of AE projects and locate where missing or needed footage is. 

More Searching.

This tutorial isn’t the first one like it from Lovell. A while ago, he showed how you could make a script that could search through Ae files, creating a “search in” command.
