After Effects Link

Developer: blenderVfxMaster

Download Free

Sends Blender renders and sequences to After Effects as matching compositions in one click.

What After Effects Link does

After Effects Link connects Blender's output to Adobe After Effects without manual importing. It recognizes image sequences, works out frame ranges and builds a composition to match.

You can send a single frame snapshot or a whole sequence, and a cache mode sends previews straight from Blender's render cache while a separate final-quality export handles finished work. Render channels, including Cryptomatte, are preserved. Compositors who move 3D passes into After Effects regularly will benefit.

Key features

  • Detects sequences and frame ranges
  • Single frame or full sequence transfer
  • Cache mode for quick previews
  • Automatic composition setup
  • Preserves render channels including Cryptomatte
