Instead of importing the template project once and then duplicating it you can also import it several times.
This should give you proper deep copies of the template that are completely independent and each in a subfolder of your project.

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
