CSV dictionary mode
Load a language dictionary, select the source language, choose target languages, and duplicate comps or mirrored folder structures from the Project panel.
After Effects localization
Localize comps without rebuilding the project by hand.
Motion Workbench duplicates selected compositions or folder trees, translates text layers from CSV or AI, renames language tokens, and keeps nested precomps organized for multilingual production.
main_enSelected comp with nested precomps
main_esSpanish text and _es sources
main_deGerman text and _de sources
packshot_en.mp4Replaced with packshot_es.mp4
nested_enDuplicated or reused as nested_es
Workflow
Built for real multilingual After Effects projects.
AI translate mode
Scan selected comps, estimate token cost, translate text layers with OpenAI or Gemini, and preserve brand terms or text that should not be translated.
Source replacement
Language tokens can be renamed anywhere in comp, layer, and source names, including patterns like en_main, main_en_123, and 211_en.mp3.
Process
From one master comp to localized versions.
- Select a comp or folder in the After Effects Project panel.
- Choose CSV localization or AI translation.
- Select target languages and optional preserve terms.
- Create localized comps while nested precomps and matching source files are reused or duplicated.
