Hello,

I was wondering if it was possible to call a After Effects ExtendScript from Python?

I was wondering if there was a library/wrapper available?

Thanks!

On Windows, try this:

import os

mycmd = r'"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CC 2014\Support Files\afterfx.exe" -r C:\Users\Username\MyScripts\AE\script.jsx'

print(mycmd)

os.system(mycmd)

That works for me.
