User suggests integrating SnapKey, a script that allows saving and recalling animation poses across layers, directly into After Effects to enhance workflow efficiency.
Last week I shared a teaser of a little After Effects script I’ve been building called **SnapKey**, and a few people asked how it actually works in a real animation workflow. I’ve now recorded a **5-minute demo using a simple mouth rig for lip-sync** to show the idea more clearly. SnapKey lets you **capture sets of properties across multiple layers and store them as animation poses (“Snaps”)**, then quickly recall or keyframe them instead of copying keyframes around. In this example I’m storing mouth shapes and snapping between them, but it also works with transforms, masks, shape paths, effects, etc. If anyone’s curious to try it, I added a code **SNAPREDDIT** which unlocks it for free, **available for the next couple of hours**.
