Automate video effects

I have a 30-minute promo with five lower-thirds and motion transitions. Automate the animation so each lower-third uses the same easing and timing: create a template animation preset for the position, scale and opacity keyframes, apply it to each title layer in sequence, and check the easing curve in the graph editor so every instance starts and finishes identically.

Before I send the sequence to the designer, make the motion consistent and easy for reviewers to change. Extract position, scale and opacity into an animation preset called LF_Title_Standard and document the duration and easing in a short note on the sequence. Highlight any titles that will need bespoke timing so the reviewer doesn’t have to hunt through keyframes.

I copied a title animation between sequences and the easing and timing shifted. The marketing lead wants identical lower-thirds across episodes but I don’t know if I copied raw keyframes, missed the graph-editor curves, or applied a mismatched preset. Which is most likely and how do I restore identical motion quickly without redoing each title?

Across projects I keep hand-keyframing the same lower-third and transition motions, wasting time and creating tiny timing mismatches that producers catch. What habit will stop this drift — enforce animation presets, build a motion-library sequence, or standardize on a timing spec — and how do I make the rest of the team use it reliably?
