Hi guys!
Andrew here from GarageFarm.NET
Sometimes it happens that you render your animation and the frames naming doesn't match your postproduction pipeline, or you need to send your files to somebody and there are some requirements when it comes to naming.
In this case, you need to rename your frames, but of course, you are not going to do it frame after frame. In simplest situations, Total Commander renaming tool is enough but it doesn't cover all possible situations.
So I decided to make two tutorials, one for Mac with vRenamer and second for Windows with Rename Master which show how batch to rename frames AND meet the following requirements:
It's possible to batch-rename all frames names and keep the render passes names\suffixes intact
It can batch-renumber frames accordingly for every render pass
Works on subfolders (often used by Maya and Modo users for render passes)
It's free
How to batch rename frames in Mac with vRenamer
How to batch rename frames in Windows with Rename Master
I hope you will find it useful, and they will save you a lot of time.
