Over the years, the native Collect Files tool has been unintuitive and filled with bugs and other weirdness. As you’d expect, we’ve rebuilt it from the ground up with a completely custom collect function and loaded it with a bunch of new and useful features.

​
Key features

Flexible scope

Collect the whole project, only comps actually used, your selection, the render queue, or anything matching a regular expression.

Font collection

Copies the font files used in the project, including locally-synced Adobe Fonts.

Proxy-aware

Optionally collect just the proxy file instead of both the original and the proxy.

Consolidation and renaming

Merge duplicate footage items and rename the collected footage folder to whatever you like.

Watch-folder render setup

Write a Render Control File for network rendering across multiple machines.

A full collection report

Every collected file, composition, effect, font, and 3D renderer used, in text or Markdown.

​
Requirements

  • After Effects 24.5 or later
  • An active Collect Files Pro license, activated through the Tack Studio app (see Installing tools)
