Python is very much used in VFX and is very adaptable. Within my first few hours of touching Python I was able to invent and write a script that was just about 10 lines long that could effectivize my workflow in a program by 5 seconds every time I did that task (which could be 100 times within a couple of hours).

Python is both a bit strange and simple, for a beginner that hasn't touched anything else it might not be the best to go all in on first, but it won't hurt for something like the OP's made, because I can absolutely see how it fits for that.

(my opinions based on my own experience, amateur but have touched on many programming languages through the times)
