Create a bunch of FLA

[lucacosta]

Hi, I work in an animation studio.

We need to create hundreds of fla files with the same structure,  but different content, for example, shot1.fla will have an audio track called audio1.wav and a sequence of jpg as animatic from folder shot1...so shot2.fla will have the same structure but the audio file will be audio2.wav and a sequence of jpg as animatic from folder shot2...and so on until shot 200

if I do a template and just drag the element inside it take a lot of time.

Does anyone know a system (maybe with FLEX or ADOBE FLASH BUILDER or other resources) that allow me to create that fla automatically putting inside the right audio and animatic according to the shot number?

thanks

Luca

HI Luca,

Perhaps looking at creating a dynamic banner set that would pull data from a csv, xml, etc.. file that then loads the appropriate files into the banner ads. We are currently experimenting with googles dynamic feed to do things like this so we can make changes on the fly without having to open multiple files throughout the day and make small edits and republish.

Just a thought

hmm, it seems interesting, my final task is .fla not the .swf.

But in any case, it worth take a look at the dynamic banner structure to see if I could help

Thanks for the tips

Luca didn't say anything about banner ads. Most people (hopefully) are not using Animate to create ads.

It is probably possible to do what you want using a JSFL script.

Clay thanks again for your insight, while my company asks us to use the software it is not my call on what I can and cannot use. Animate does a great job (BTW) of creating ads and we have been able to make some amazing experiences with it.

Again thanks for your insight.
