Not exactly sure what’s going on here, but this is a secret handshake I don’t think I’ve ever learned.

Been puppy sitting for this guy, Cooper. Named after DB Cooper because he came to Oregon via airplane.

Things like "comments" or "tape name" don't seem writeable, so I worked up a method of using a "tag data" comp that stores metadata in text layers referencing the item ID.

So who needs tags/metadata in After Effects?

I got myself down a bit of a scripting rabbit hole this weekend, becoming a tad obsessive about the lack of user accessible tags and metadata in After Effects.

I was goofing around with solid definitions via scripting and I think I've been Kyled.

I'm doing some research. Show me your project organization structure! How do you keep organized?

Coming soon. In my spare time as an unemployed artist, I have delved into the world of script utilities. Inspired by my frustrations with a recent freelance job of needing to make lots of arrowheads, I wrote my own utility. 1000 lines of code later, Quiver is almost ready for release.
