Rename items project wide in After Effects with as much ease or power as you want.

A smart import and batch replace tool that greatly improves the workflow of importing and replacing files especially file sequences and highly nested hierarchies.

Batch process folders of After Effects project and search and replace file paths. This can come in handy if you are moving a project to a different folder structure like a new server. You can also use it to batch replace files in many projects at once.

Converts the expressions in your projects so that they are compatible with After Effects running in any language.

Search for and edit text layers throughout your After Effects project. You can create your own text style presets and apply them to multiple layers at the click of a button.

Search, apply and edit expressions throughout your project. Expressions can be saved, or instantly applied to one or more properties. It can also check for broken expressions, re-enabling them automatically where possible.

SaveCompAsProject is a script that, as it’s names says, export any of your composition as a new project.

Duplicates the selected layers and if any of the layers have expressions referencing any of the layers being duplicated it will update the expressions to point to the newly duplicated layers. Might make more sense if you watch the demo :-)

Activates disabled expressions in selected layers or entire comp. A true life saver!

Allows you to copy a marker and paste it on any other layer. After Effects does not allow copy/pasting markers in their UI for now, so this script is here to help.
