Insert keyframes every 10 frames.

Hello all,
What I’m doing right now is taking video track and open up Track motion window, add a key frame every 10 frames(or it could be so many seconds) and rotate frame at each key frame to a curtain angle, or sometimes I need to change size, or do something else, but it should happen repeatedly every so many key frames at each key frame, but you can imagine how tedious it is even for a track of only a few seconds. Can I possibly automate this task with some clever script. I can change values of the angle turn or size inside the script.
Thanks in advance.
Igor

Track Motion keyframes? NO
Pan/Crop keyframes? Yes

Okay Ed . . where is this script? I've looked on the Sundance . . OR are you saying it can be created, but it doesn't yet exsist - yeah?

Grazie

Yeah,
I can leave with pan/crop keyframes, is there anything already created, please, I need to know.
Thanks in advance

Grazie, Can be created - doesn't yet exist (that I'm aware of).

I know of nothing specifically created to do this. It's not overly difficult to add keyframes via a script. However, It may be just as fast to copy and paste. Create a couple of keyframes, copy them, paste them, then copy the 4 keyframes and paste them. Then copy the 8 keyframes and paste them............

This would be especially useful if there was to be a "pattern" to the keyframe settings as you would be able to create and then copy the full pattern.

Yes, that's what I do copy and paste, but I don't think it is as fast, since I need to insert keyframe every 10 frames and when you try to do it on this level I'd rather have a script to to it for me. But if nobody has it, well I'll copy and paste, thanks for quick response though.

Okay Ed . . I'm off again . . I can see a long email conversation coming on again . . HAH! - Hope you don't mind . . but I've got a cunning plan . . a plan so cunning that it was hailed as the King of Cunningness from the Land of Cute!!

Howzabout Markers that would place keyframes into a clip THAT inturn could be used as K/Fs ? Hmmm....? Any link here to the Edit Detail View? - Yes I too do the copy/paste waltz. I'm thinking if there is a way to accomplish VIA markers from seeing the flow and hear the beat in the t/l. Yer know me, wanting to make things easy . . . Hows the "other" headache I gave you?

My best regards,

Grazie

Didn't someone already write a script that would place keyframes at markers? If yes, my script will place markers at 10 frame intervals easily enough. You could, possibly, combine the two!
