I’m working with some long space image sequences (20,000+ frames) and need a quick way to identify a specific frame in a sequence. I need to hack some way for AE to tell me which filename of the imported image sequence is on screen, ideally via visual burn-in layer – but it appears AE can only reference the file name? The workaround would be doing math but that gets awkward very fast.

 

Is this possible in AE?

A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.
