How to batch upload image sequences to Shotgrid Shots

RV

Hi all,

We have occasion to upload a number of different image sequences to an equal number of different Shots in a Project on Shotgrid. At the moment someone manually opens each sequence in RV and uses the submission tool to turn that into a movie and upload to Shotgrid for review (and which minely fills out Path to frames/movie etc etc) one after the other.

Is there an easier way to do this for a batch of shots? Some kind of API or some other sensible way to do this? As at the moment that can take a lot of a persons time if they are dealing with a load of shots and need to regularly upload them all.

Thanks very much.

Kind Regards,

Jon

Hi Jon,

the easiest approach would be to use the oolkit Publisher and alter it a bit so it can auto-match your media to the shots you need the media to link to.

Then it could auto-copy the files into a structured path and also generate previews with something like ffmpeg.
