After Effects Auto Translator

Free ScriptUI panel for After Effects that automatically translates selected text layers into multiple languages using the MyMemory API. No registration required.

Features

  • Translates into 8 languages simultaneously: ES, PT, IT, DE, FR, PL, TR, UA
  • Each translation is added as a separate disabled layer, color-coded by language
  • Handles long texts automatically by splitting into chunks (500 byte API limit)
  • Detects existing translations — skip or overwrite with one click
  • Email field for 10× higher daily limit (50k vs 5k chars/day)
  • Progress indicator: ⏳ Layer 2/5 | ES 3/8
  • Saves email locally via AE settings — set once, works forever

Installation

  1. Download translateMyMemory.jsx
  2. Copy to Scripts/ScriptUI Panels/ folder:
    • macOS: /Applications/Adobe After Effects [version]/Scripts/ScriptUI Panels/
    • Windows: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects [version]\Support Files\Scripts\ScriptUI Panels\
  3. Restart After Effects
  4. Open via Window → translateMyMemory

Usage

  1. Select one or more text layers in your composition
  2. Check the languages you want
  3. Click ▶ Перекласти

Translated layers are placed directly above the source layer, disabled by default, named [ES] Your text...

API Limits

Mode Limit
Anonymous (no email) 5,000 chars/day
