Description




Add Time makes adding time easy.

It’s a tale as old as time - a last minute timing change can wreak havoc on any After Effects file. Adding time means moving keyframes, adjusting comp lengths, extending layers, double checking endpoints - all just to ensure that nothing breaks the next time you click export. And that’s just for one comp.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a tool that did all that for you?

Welcome to Add Time - our tool for After Effects that automates all of that loathsome grunt work and makes it easier for you to be what you were hired to be - an artist.

Add some time back to your day

Set the amount of time you want to add in increments of 0.25s. Then, use the playhead inside of your chosen composition to choose where to add the pause.

Automate the math

Inject time into a project, moving keyframes, adjusting comp durations, and extending layer endpoints automatically. Add Time will perfectly replicate any keyframes it moves, making it easier than ever for you to address those pesky timing notes.

Tunnel to the core

Add Time won’t just add time in your current composition - it will burrow into each of the pertinent subcomps, add time, and do the same thing to their subcomps. It doesn’t matter how many nested comps you have - Add Time will dig through them all for you, all while leaving a handy trail of markers in its wake.
