Editing template using script.

[SIDDHARTHA_GUPTA]

I have read that it is possible with the scripting in after effects to batch create videos using templates…for example a script which provide instructions to AE to take data(text or images) from a xml, csv or .txt file and render out the video in any format?

Say if i want to customize a template 50 times using 50 different text , can i just make a text file or list of the text changes and do an automated render..??

I know the same question might have been asked previously in the forum however i could not find a strong solution there fore i am posting this question.

any solution would be a great help.

There are a lot of scripts available on the web for things like lower thirds from spreadsheets. AE Ehansers has a bunch of free ones and a nice forum. AEscripts.com is another resource. There is also a scripting forum right here. Check the links on the right side of this forum's home page under the Related Forums or Sub Forums heading.
