An After Effects render queue for ShotGrid Toolkit.

Overview

AEQueue

An After Effects render queue for ShotGrid Toolkit.

Features

  • Render multiple comps to locations defined by templates in your Toolkit config.
  • Compress full-res renders as MP4 and GIF using ffmpeg.
  • Copy compressed renders to a review folder.
  • Upload renders to ShotGrid for review.

Installing

To install AEQueue make the changes in the example_config directory to your own toolkit config. This includes the following:

  1. Modify env/app_locations.yml to include tk-aftereffects-queue.
  2. Add env/includes/settings/tk-aftereffects-queue.yml to configure AEQueue. (See info.yml for details on configuration values.)
  3. Modify env/includes/settings/tk-aftereffects.yml to include AEQueue in your asset_step and shot_step sections for the tk-aftereffects engine.

TODO

  • Make UI dpi-aware.
  • Add Publish step to publish the base render (and aep?)
  • Add pre and post render hooks.

    Looks like fields were being modified that should not have been, namely the user field. Fix by reducing the fields to update to the bare minimum.

  • Copy file before bg render.

    Copy file before bg render.

    Make a copy of the AE project and pass the copy to aerender for background rendering. Ensures that the bg render process has a static and up-to-date copy of the AE project to work with!

    Addresses a bug where starting a bg render would not get the latest changes in your scene.

    • Suppress dialogs while rendering directly in AE. Users should no longer need to accept dialogs for overwriting renders or warnings about color bit depth.

    • Fix issue where a Failed task was not propagated to all depedent jobs, causing the dialog to get stuck running, when it should Fail.

    • Fix failure caused by rendering to Google Drive on some fresh installs of ShotGrid. Solved by fixing the following two related issues.

      • Fix path generation ensuring that paths point to the correct output folders.
      • Fix BNS output module templates. Please remove the existing templates
    • Improved reliability of background rendering.

    • Set default background rendering threads to 4.
