About breakdowns

breakdowns is an After Effects plugin built by PENCIL Park for animators who need to label, export, and organize their animations. It automatically handles labeling, exporting, and organizing layers alongside a video, without adding extra elements to the project, so layers remain unaltered and the composition stays clutter‑free. The plugin is tailored for vertical stacks of layers and offers Photoshop‑style organization with customizable labeling and layer order. It also generates unique sequences to aid project versioning and can be used to create behind‑the‑scenes renders. Compatibility is listed for After Effects versions 2020 through 2024.
