Update a Shot's Frame Range
During production in some cases the frame range of a shot will change, either adjusting a shot's length or adjusting it's position in the edit. Once adjusted, we can update the shot .blend file's frame range so new playblasts will match this updated frame range. Once a new playblast is available the shot can automatically be updated in the VSE via the Blender Kitsu Add-On
- Open your edit .blend file inside the directory
your_project_name/svn/edit
- Select a shot and it's Metadata Strip, adjust the timing of both strips so they remain in sync.
- Select your Metadata Strip, in the Kitsu Sidebar of the VSE Under Push select
Metadata 1 Shot
to push your shot's new frame range to the Kitsu Server - Open your shot .blend file inside the directory
your_project_name/svn/pro/shots/{sequence_name}/{shot_name}/
- Inside the Kitsu Sidebar, under Playblast tools, if your frame range on Kitsu has changed you will see a red
Pull Frame Range
button. Select it to update the file's Frame Range - Adjust the shot's animation to accommodate the new frame range, then under Playblast use the

button to create a new version, then selectCreate Playblast
to render a new playblast - Open your edit .blend file, and select the movie strip for the shot you would like to update.
