After Effects Quick Tip: Sequence Layers

Whether you are doing a slideshow or trying to reorganize your clips on the timeline, the “Sequence Layers” option can help you speed things up.

With this example we have four layers with overlapping clips.

In the menu go to: Animation>Keyframe Assist>Sequence Layers:

With this dialogue you can choose to overlap the clips and how long to overlap if needed. You can also set a transition which is great for quick slide shows.

Hit OK and AE will have properly distributed your clips according to your settings.
