I don't know the syntax but this has to be easy. I want to build a script that creates a set of folders I use all the time. I want to be able to create these folders

FOOTAGE
FOOTAGE>_MOVIES
FOOTAGE>_IMAGES
FOOTAGE>_OUTPUTCOMPOSITES
FOOTAGE>_RENDERS
MASTER RENDER COMPS
PRE COMPS

how would I create the folders then put the _movies,_images,_outputcomposites,and _render folders inside the footage folder?

hey grant,

the script I am currently working on will recreate your folder hierarchy from the finder in the AE project panel, so if you already have your stuff organized in the finder, my script will import all your footage and maintain the hierarchy. if you'd like to beta test it send me your email via pm and i'll send you a beta.
