Video automation

Templates, scripts, and small tools for repeatable video work that should not be rebuilt by hand every time.

Tools and workflows

  • After Effects templates, ExtendScript, UXP, and batched render setups
  • Remotion when React and data are the right way to generate video variants
  • FFmpeg for transcoding, thumbnails, concat, previews, and batch processing
  • Node.js or shell scripts that connect CSVs, APIs, assets, and output folders
  • GSAP or web render paths when the motion needs to live outside a normal video pipeline

Common use cases

  • Localized, personalized, or data-driven video variants
  • Social and ad exports in several ratios from one master setup
  • Internal tooling for repetitive render, naming, conversion, and review tasks
  • Pipeline setup and handoff for teams that want to own the workflow afterward

If the work has a pattern, there is probably a cleaner way to produce it. The best version is usually boring to run and flexible enough to change later.
