After Effects Projects

Renders

[projectFolder]..\
enders\[dateYear][dateMonth][dateDay]_[timeHour][timeMins]--[compName].[fileextension]

Use this template for all offline and online renders. It will automatically backtrack in the file system and find the correct render folder. Additionally, it will add a date/time-stamp prefix to the renders.

Proxies

[projectFolder]..\proxies\[dateYear][dateMonth][dateDay]_[timeHour][timeMins]--[compName].[fileextension]

Like the Render template, this string will render to the tasks' dedicated proxies folder.

Comp naming conventions

ShortName_v001 or xx_ShortName_v001, depending on whether a prefix is appropriate for additional organization.

Please create a new version number for every new render destined for posting or other departments.
