Showtools
AUTOMATED DATA SORTING FOR VFX
Latest version: v1.0.0
ShowTools was created to be a swiss-army sorting tool for rename and bulk utility.
Different productions have different piplines, naming conventions, and folder structures. With ShowTools, users can easily create sorting profiles designed for specific tasks. Using slate and asset tree logic, users can turn roughly pre-sorted data, into a pipeline ready folder structure.
FEATURES
SURGICAL BULK RENAMER
Easily and reliabily rename multiple data types, each with their own specificed naming conventions.
NON-DESTRUCTIVE SORTING
Data sorting is fully reversible, even months after ingestion. Allowing users to easily undo mistakes and update specific shoot-data
SLATE & ASSET AWARE LOGIC
Remove the need to manually create slate/asset folder structures and manually relocate items. Input the sorting logic for each data-type and voila !
IMAGE METADATA
ShowTools can access EXIF metadata, thereby being able to easily include rename elements such as focal length; a great addition for those who do texture photography and panoramas on-set.
REPORT GENERATION
Provides a readable summary of the shoot-day's contents that can easily be intergrated with other platforms such as ShotGrid, FTrack, etc
