Scripts
Copy footage to local folder as proxy
/*
* simpleLocalProxy.jsx v1.0
*
* Copies footage from its current location to one chosen by the user (defaults to /tmp/) and allows to
* switch original-proxy with a button
* To be used when file i/o is slow on the network and you want file on your local SSD. Less black-box version of After Effects' file cache on scratch disks ('conformed media')

Watchfolder.js v1.0
--------------------
By bernie @ berniebernie.fr
This script is a simple palette to automatically send your after effects file to be processed by the watchfolder
In essence it's a simplified Collect Files > Project only.
To be added:
- A check for missing footage
- Some way to parse logs to figure what has rendered and what hasn't
- Some UIs to turn AFX into a render slave & set some WF options

Dandelion/Amazing World Of Gumball Shotbuilder
For education purposes only, the script was run in production to helb build shots, it:
- created a list of shots & shows possible given a folder structure ("GB##_SHOWNAME_SC##_T##")
- opened the last .AEP file found in said shot folder
- if no .AEP found, built a comp according to a given pre-cut animatic movie file found in previous folder
- imported footage from the appropriate sources folder (and made sure not to import twice when you re-clicked the 'grab sources' button
- automatically sent files to the watchfolder to render on a small-ish farm.
Other buttons allowed to check for missing footage, open the comp's folder, open the current shows' latest animatic, etc
//
// Dandelion Shot Builder for "the Amazing World Of Gumball" v0.7 by Bernie
// last update 21/11/10
//
// Known Bugs:
//
// -you can't have several sequences in a single folder and expect the script to pick up all the sequences
// -this will not set color profiles
// //TODO
// >>> CHECK IF WF FOLDER ALREADY EXISTS
// >>>> GET TAKE FROM N DRIVE, NOT OUT FOLDER
// -v0.7 fixes
// -new scene after WF works properly
// -changed output folder location to N:
// -v0.6 fixes
// -cancel watchfolder cancels watchfolder
// -fixed GB##_SC_###_T1
// -added options
// -can work on a new location
// -v0.5 fixes
// -shows allow for a letter in the comp now (ie GB##_SC###a_T#)
// -will warn if there is missing footage before sending to WF
// -removed set take, added 'missing' dialog.
// -v0.4 fixes
// -there shouldn't be a refresh problem on show change anymore
// -v0.3 fixes
// -changed watchfolder location to anthony's mac
// -changed save as dialog
// -removed unused buttons
// -added WF (watchfolder) FE (for edit) XLS (comp chart) ANI (animatic)
// -v0.2 fixes
// -sequences weren't getting imported.
// -fixed UI/little problems
// -added folders, refresh button, save before watchfoldering
