How to import multiple images NOT sequences?

I'd like to create a slide show in After Effects. I have about 300 photos in 20 folders - of which the client will only choose 100 or so.
I'd like to keep all the files in their same directories/keep the folder structure identical. So I'd like to drag and drop these 20 folders into AE and have it match up - only problem is AE thinks I want these to be sequences! Any advice? Thanks!

from After Effects Help:
"To import the contents of the folder as individual footage items that appear in the Project panel in a folder, Alt-drag a folder from Windows Explorer (Windows) or Option-drag a folder from the Finder (Mac OS) into the Project panel."

  • How to import multiple images as slides for a history presentation?

    I teach college & often want to do slide shows with images from a folder.
    This is possible with Picassa.
    I would like to automate the process of importing, say 50 images, from a folder and creating 1 slide per image.
    Is there any way to automate or simplify the process.
    I know I can do each slide individually, but I'm looking for a way to save time.
    Marc

    However, when you drop them, they are out of order. As far as I can figure out, they are on computer order: 100, 1000, 11, 110, or something like that.
    I am having the same problem as the other guy. I have to import 300 images into a keynote presentation. Each image on one slide. I have exported the images from iPhoto into a folder, and they are the right size. Now, how do I get them into Keynote in the right order?! Too many to sort by hand, sooo long to add individually. Help!
    Thanks

  • How to Import Multiple Image Sequences into - Premiere 'Pro'

    Hi ;-)
    1) I added a bug report about this 4 years ago  -- Is this STILL not possible ;-))))
    I have 200 Sequences sitting each in its own folder. As of now - then year of the Lord 2014, I have to physically select each folder and add them one by one...
    This is almost funny...
    Perhaps I am missing the extreme obvious --- Either that or Premiere Pro is.
    Any Help is greatly appreciate
    Thanks

    Jim, when selecting the blackmagic2 level, the only available option is File Directory:
    This doesn't happen with RED files, where you can choose between File Directory and RED from the first level. Unlike blackmagic's DNG clips, RED files can be imported all at once, so maybe that's the whole problem:
    And yes, Source Settings are available for RED files, whereas they are not for DNG (only basic information, not raw manipulation):

  • Don't know how to import multiple images

    I expect this is really simple, but I've tried and tried, and can't find anything on it in the Help files. I open a picture file in Photoshop, which is fine, but then I want to open another picture in the same Photoshop file so I can combine them, putting it on a different layer. If I open another picture file it seems to put it into a new Photoshop file. Can ayone tell me how to do it please?

    Quite Useful wrote:
    I can't drag one file into another because when I open the second one it seems to take the place of the other, as if only one can be open at once.
    Go to the top bar and under Arrange Documents select Float All in Windows.
    That will get rid of the stupid tabs. You can drag one image on to the tab of the other image but I like to see what I'm doing!
    You can permanently disable this tabbing feature in Photoshop's preferencecs.

  • InDesign CS3 Scripting XML Import Multiple Images into same Text Frame

    I am having trouble importing multiple images into the same Text Frame using XML import. I imported 5 images into the text frame. However, all 5 images are laying on top of one another. Does anyone know if there is a way to have all images laying out like how Microsoft Word handles inline images, i.e., laying out next image to the right of previsous image in the same line and if there is not enough space left in the line, then wrap to next line. Thanks in advance. I understand I could use JavaScript to do post import processing, e.g, calculate the image size and place each images accordingly. But I am trying to see whether there is a way to do this without scripts.

    You can apply an object style to all anchored images by script. A text frame containing main flow should be selected.
    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    var textFrame =  app.selection[0];
    var rectangles = textFrame.texts[0].rectangles;
    if (rectangles.length > 0) {
         for (var i=0; i < rectangles.length; i++) {
              rectangles[i].appliedObjectStyle = doc.objectStyles.item("Cover");
    However, there is a better approach:
    Step 1
    Create place holders for a single "Book" element and format it as needed -- apply an object style to the cover.
    Step 2
    Import the xml file -- the placeholders are replaced with data from the 1st xml element
    Step 3
    Drag & drop the element containing all "Books" elements into the main flow -- all elements are placed and formatted the same way as in step 1.
    Finally, add a new page, click the overset text icon and autoflow text to add pages so that to fit all the text.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to have multiple images on the same screen? like in the movies where you see several actions at

    how to have multiple images on the same screen? like in the movies where you see several actions at the same time ....
    i don't find  a tutorial in adobe tv....
    thanks !!

    The short answer is that you'll put the source clip(s) for each inset on a different video track, all stacked up. Then use the Scale and Position effects (under "Motion" on the Effect Controls panel) to reduce their size and place them where you want.
    If the content of an inset will involve edited content (where you're cutting among various clips or just trimming out unwanted content from a single clip), then you'll probably find it easier to do all those edits in one sequence, then nest that sequence in the master sequence, where you apply the Scale and Positioning effects. That will save the step of applying the scale and position effects to each edited track item.

  • How to import multiple files to the frame area?

    How do I import multiple files to create animated GIF's. I
    know how to import multiple files into the Fireworks, but if I'm
    trying to create an animated gif that has alot of files, How do I
    get them into the frames area. It is really a pain importing each
    and every file one at a time frame by frame

    merry1
    after you bring in all your images to the canvas, select all
    and in the
    Frames Options drop down, select Distribute to Frames.
    You can bring multiple images onto the canvas by copy and
    pasting from
    the folder(s) where they exist.

  • How to resize multiple images?

    I am newbie to RH and would like to know if there is a method /shortcut by which I can resize multiple images?
    Specifically to my project: I have close to 50 tables containing various images and their descriptions. When I insert these images into RH, the original image size is inserted and these images are of various sizes.
    I know how to resize multiple images in Word but not in RH and hence, reaching to higher powers
    I am using RH 9
    Appreciate all your help!

    Hi There, Well the best option is to resize each image individually but if you feel that you can select all images together and the  resize them all at once I am sure that you would like to give a read to this post from forums which talks about this job

  • How to place multiple images?

    Hi,
    How to place multiple images?
    Regards,
    Learner

    Is the script creating the frames? If so, just assign each frame a
    variable, or make them all into an array. Then use something like:
    myFrame.place("aFile");
    If the script is not creating the frame, then are they live frames on
    the page, or are they actually on a master page?
    If they're on master spreads, you'll have to release them to the page
    you want. (I think it's myMasterFrame.override(myPage) where myPage is
    the live page you want to detach them on, but you'll have to double
    check that.)
    But presuming they're regular detached frames on a page, if you want
    your script to figure out which is the first and which is the second you
    can either use script labels in the UI and then search for the script
    label, or else you'll have to write a function that will get all
    rectangles on the page (myPage.rectangles.everyItem().getElements() and
    either do a clever javascript sort, or write a straightforward function
    to sort them by height and x-pos.
    Hope that sheds some light on the task ahead!
