Hey Guys So Im working on a film with about a good 1000+ shots and the sup wants them all updated as they come in now was wondering this is normal for us to go one by one and upload these online as they get version updated but I was wondering if it was possible to automate the process even with python ? maybe via photoshop or the desktop client you know putting them with the right name in a folder and then they get uploaded automatically ?

Cheers.
