What Celly does
Celly is an extension panel for Adobe After Effects. It runs inside After Effects, on your own computer. You build one template, and your data decides what goes in it.
- Link your dataA Google Sheet, a CSV file or a JSON feed. Each row becomes one comp.
- Link columns to your templateText, colours, Essential Properties, comp settings and footage.
- Preview and generateCheck any row live in your template, then make every comp and send them to the render queue.
When the sheet changes, Celly regenerates only the rows that changed.
Why Celly asks for access to your Google account
Connecting a Google account is optional. Public sheets, CSV files and JSON feeds work without it. If you connect one, Celly uses Google Drive and Google Sheets to:
- read the spreadsheet you choose as your data source, so its rows can fill your template;
- download the images and videos in your Drive that your sheet links to, so Celly can place them in your comps.
Your data goes straight from Google to After Effects on your computer. It never passes through a server of ours, and we never see it. The privacy policy explains exactly what Celly accesses and stores.
