I am doing a series of 20 short videos, most using the same template (like a video hive plate made of comps and sub comps)
So I import the AE project template into my project. Now I dupe it so its template.1. I open it and go to the comps that you put stills in and fill them up. All looks good in the master template.
Now time for video 2. I dupe that template and give it a new name. Now I go into the photo comps (still with same names of 001, 002 etc) and replace the photos. Now I go back to the first temp and the photos in temp 1 are now changed.
How do you work with a template to make multiple videos in the same project? Do I have to change every name of every comp? Or just the root level folder (which did not seem to work). Or do I need to open a new project for each one?
thanks
