General Installation

To install the presets in After Effects, drag the “MGH-[Collection Name]” folder into your “Presets” folder within your After Effects directory (if the “MGH-[Collection Name]” folder already exists, copy the packaged .ffx files into this folder)

  • Win: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Support Files\Scripts\ScriptsUI Panels\
  • Mac: /Users/**username**/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Support Files/Scripts/ScriptsUI Panels/

How to Use Presets

You can find and apply the presets in After Effects within the “Effects & Presets” panel. Locate “Animation Presets” > “MGH-[Collection Name]” folder, then select a preset and drag it onto a layer to apply it.

To install After Effects scripts, place the .jsxbin file and any other included folders and files into your “ScriptUI Panels” folder within your After Effects directory:

  • Win: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Support Files\Scripts\ScriptsUI Panels\
  • Mac: /Users/**username**/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Support Files/Scripts/ScriptsUI Panels/

How to Open Scripts in After Effects

To use/open the script, go to the “Window” menu inside After Effects and select the script name within the menu.

Note: You must restart After Effects after installing new scripts. If you run into issues, try opening After Effects via “Run as Administrator” command in Windows.

Nothing super crazy here. And .aet is considered a “Template” file. All it means is as soon as you try and save the project, you’ll be asked to save it as a new/separate project. The original file will remain unaltered. This is super handy if you ever need to just revert to baseline!

To install .Mogrt files:

  1. In Premiere, Click the icon at the bottom of the Essential Graphics panel to navigate to a Motion Graphics template.
  2. Navigate to a folder where the Motion Graphics template is saved, and select Open. (The template gets copied to the Local Templates Folder and is available in the Essential Graphics panel.)

Motion Graphics templates directories

The default location for Motion Graphics templates is:

  • Win: C:\Users\Common Files\**username**AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\Motion Graphics Templates\
  • Mac: /Users/**username**/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Motion Graphics Template/

To add an MGH folder .pht into the Post Haste Template Directory:

Windows:​ C:\Documents\Digital Rebellion\Post Haste\Templates\

Mac:​ ~/Documents/Digital Rebellion/Post Haste/Templates/

How to use MGH Google Docs/Sheets

Google Sheets and Docs are full customizable with editable pre-fill options to save you time when filling it out. You can’t edit the original document, make a copy to your Google Drive to use all the features ( You need to have Google account for this). The document will open in a new window.
