I work as a postproduction editor and cg artist. I always have to go back and forth from avid to after effects : i have to export a lot of subsequences in order to use them in after. This is a real pain in the a** as there are often more then 100 of subsequences to export.
So i wrote two scripts to do it for me :
the first one takes an edl (actually two) and uses ffmpeg to create the subsequences media in both texted and textless versions, i wrote two versions : first in batch, second in python (which is way faster and would potentialy work on a mac with a few tweeks).
The second one just creates compositions from these elements two by two so i don't have to because it would be a drag.
It is a js script you run from after effects.
I guess i should just write a whole js that does all of these in after but i'm not sure js is able to run cmd commands without tweaks.
My questions are :
1- Can one sell python or batch scripts on ae-scripts ?
2- Does anyone here faces the same challenges, and would they be interested in using / buying these scripts ?
