Camera and Object Positions to After Effects 2.0.0 for Maya (maya script)
TIRED OF:
Trying to figure out how AE reads .MA files!
Weird Names of After Effects Objects
Having you Units In AE really HUGE!
Correctly naming, copying or creating nulls, baking, then exporting cameras and objects that you want positions for in AE?
Having to redo all the steps and reconnect all your expressions because you made changes?
ME TOO! Download this tool to change all that!
TYPE 'rcExport2AE' for the Interface!
This Script Bakes Camera and Object Positions to a compatible format that After Effects understands and imports.

Bake Selected Object

If you are using a different version of After Effects or have it installed in a custom location use the Maya Ascii Export option to manually import the file into After Effects!
