Automating the Creation Process for 1 video for 1000s?

Here's what I want to do, but I don't know if it's possible:
For my company, I have designed a fairly simple motion graphics type video for various products that we sell online. It involves the image of the project, some descriptions of it and a title, with some simple movement and transitions with music underneath. The problem though is that we have 1000s of products. Is there a way to create, buy, or have written a script that will be able to take the template project that i've created and use it to do a similar thing with the 1000s of other products (over a long time, presumably)? Just replace the image and text with text and image in a predetermined location.
Does this make sense? Is it possible? If so, how?
If not, what other approaches would you guys suggest to approaching this problem?
Thanks a lot.
William

hi william!
in short: yes.
what you're asking for is very much possible, and actually not too complicated to do.
i would recommend using AE's javaScript interface and not the C++ API.
it's one hell of a lot easier to develop and also to adjust, and it has all the facilities you need.
in essence:
1. you supply a file with a list of the data you want to input to each product. (i.e. file names, text, ect...)
2. the script parses that file and iterates though the entries, each time importing the base project and replacing the footage and text.
3. either render each project and move to the next, or create a big project containing any number of the entries and render it all together.
4. tada!

  • Design the New process set up for Materials in one physical stock plant

    Hi Experts,
    The requirement is one physical plant as two different logical plants in the system. The main issue is how to administrate or how to find the set up which allows one Physical warehouse in Hamburg which we have supplying two Logical warehouses in the system without having thru really physically separate the warehouses into two different ones. Materials physically will be only for one warehouse.
    Requirement is for Design the New process set up for Materials in one physical stock serving plant into two different system plants.
    Most of the things are pointing in the direction that order Backlogs will not be converted into new organization. We have backlogs for the material requirements for purchase orders, sales orders whatever we have in the current setup; then there will have all are new orders from the certain dates taking in the  new organization set up. These backlogs are very long at least three to four years.
    We would like to find some way to have the all the material requirements ending up in one basket instead of two baskets. That still be able to deliver at least in system point of view from two different baskets.
    We need to do analysis on one physical stock serving plant into two different system plants that could be done either by material master data or as i understood that could be from PS side.
    can any one please tell me how we can maintian this setup in the system.
    Please provide your valuable inputs.

    I will say this.  If your goal is to have two plants, with two company codes, and you wish to only procure or produce in one of the plants, then generally I would recommend using Special Procurement via Stock Transport Order (in standard SAP, Special Procurement 40).  This based on a very small knowledge of your requirements.  I have already cited the Sap online help for special procurement.

  • SAP is allowing the creation of PO's for C.codes for non extended vendors

    Hi Gurus
    SAP is allowing the creation of purchase orders for company codes to which the vendor has not been extended.  An example is PO 4500XXYYZZ for vendor number 9010577.  The PO was created for company code 1111, but the vendor is not extended to company code 1111.
    Please suggest how to avoid the above transaction by throwing an error.
    Thanks
    Sada

    Yes, this is SAP Standard Behaviour Only. System Will check Whether the Vendor Hasbeen Maintained at Purchase Orgn Level during Purchase Order Creation.
    During MIRO only System check whether the Vendor is Maintained at Company Code level or not Else it will not allow to Post Invoice.
    You can Control this by Restricting Users to Use MK01 and Give Access to XK01
    Else Use the Following Enhancement :

  • Do I need to stop the SDM process on UNIX for backups?

    We are running Netweaver 04 SP13 on HPUX.  Can the SDM process stay running or do we need to shut it down during backups?
    Thanks!

    As the technical operations manual stated:
    Create a backup of the SDM installation directory /usr/sap/<SID>/JC<inst_nr>/SDM.
    Make sure the SDM is stopped during backup.
    That should be clear enough...

  • Automating the creation of a HDinsight cluster

    Hi,
    I am trying to automate the creation of a HDinsight cluster using Azure Automation to execute a powershell script (the script from the automation gallery). When I try and run this (even without populating any defaults), it errors with the following error:
    "Runbook definition is invalid. In a Windows PowerShell Workflow, parameter defaults may only be simple value types (such as integers) and strings. In addition, the type of the default value must match the type of the parameter."
    The script I am trying to run is:
    <#
     This PowerShell script was automatically converted to PowerShell Workflow so it can be run as a runbook.
     Specific changes that have been made are marked with a comment starting with “Converter:”

    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
      Creates a cluster with specified configuration.
    .DESCRIPTION
      Creates a HDInsight cluster configured with one storage account and default metastores. If storage account or container are not specified they are created
      automatically under the same name as the one provided for cluster. If ClusterSize is not specified it defaults to create small cluster with 2 nodes.
      User is prompted for credentials to use to provision the cluster.
      During the provisioning operation which usually takes around 15 minutes the script monitors status and reports when cluster is transitioning through the
      provisioning states.

    Agata,
    The full retail should be white with a snow leopard on it but if you ordered from the on-line store you should be fine.  If it is having problems booting while holding the C key, try restarting the computer but this time hold the Option key.
    That will bring up a grey screen with the image of the Macintosh HD and an image of the CD.  Click the image of the CD and let it boot that way.
    Once booted, go through the install proceedure, choose language, etc.  Still using the same CD but let's see if for some reason it does not like the way it is being told to boot.

  • Best view for Video for 5800

    Kindly let me know in which resolution should i convert video for Nokia 5800 so that it can be viewed perfectly.
    e.g.: 320 x 240, 320 x 480, 320 x 200, 240 x 180.
    Also audio quality in what Kbps ? shouls i keep while converting.
    I had converted 1 video it seems video is stretch. 

    The 5800 records video in VGA 640x480, so that ought to be your benchmark. The 5800 screen is 640x360 pixels in landscape mode, effectively therefore widescreen, but when I tested this model I had no issue watching videos that I had converted to MP4 using WinAVI so the screen should not be causing the distortion.
    I'm not a video expert and I have my software on standard settings so I can't offer much further advice on conversion configuration.

  • Does MUSE support the creation of native apps for iPad and Android?

    I am a big InDesign user with the Single Edition app builder. That service is being discontinued as of May 1 and I am hunting for alternative ways to build native apps that are design-heavy with other methods. I need to know whether Muse can offer anything like this with the help of PhoneGap.
    1) Can you build native apps with Muse?
    2) Does that apply to Andoid and Apple?
    3) Does Muse work with PhoneGap or is there a more direct way to launch?
    4) Can you point me to any tutorials specifically explaining how to do the above with Muse?
