Compatibility After Effects Please check exact version compatibility under the "COMPATIBILITY" tab below
Conform Studio is a set of scripts designed to manage your VFX production. With Conform Studio you can automatically precompose your shots, batch rename them using highly customisable presets, extract your compositions into separate files and trim your media to reduce the amount of data you distribute to your artists. After the work is done, you can replace the compositions with rendered files, automatically update them to the latest version or replace the renders with graded files from another folder. Don't waste your time - it's not worth it.
