Unlimited creative options

Unlimited creative options

Manipulate moving and still images using effects such as stylize, distort, and shatter. Create grids, radio waves, particles, and more. Combine third-party plug-in effects for Hollywood-caliber results.

Animated text and vector graphics

Animated text and vector graphics

Create text and vector graphics in After Effects using familiar Adobe tools, and then animate those elements to create visually innovative motion graphics

Video transparency

Use the Academy Award–winning Keylight plug-in to create transparency for video shot against a bluescreen or greenscreen, a host of other color and luminance keyers, or the amazing Roto Brush to matte an object shot against any background.

Flexible 2D and 3D compositing and animation

Freely express your visual ideas by using powerful 2D and 3D content creation, compositing, and animation tools. Choose from an impressive variety of rich cinematic animation options.

JavaScript-based expressions

Link the behavior of a property to that of another to easily create dynamic relationships, using the convenient pick whip or mathematical expressions. Simulate physical behavior realistically with minimal need for keyframes.

Integrated scripting palettes

Access all scripts in the Scripts menu instantly. Includes a JavaScript Console and Call Stack, Breakpoints, and Data Browser palettes.

Integration with Adobe Flash Professional

Export After Effects compositions and vector graphics as layered XFL format rich media projects for Flash Professional. Import and encode FLV files, batch rendering with embedded cue points.

Markers and cue point export

Export composition or layer markers as cue points in FLV files. Easily convert keyframe values into markers, allowing you to use motion tracking data and other After Effects keyframe values in Flash Professional.

Batch rendering of web-optimized files

Create multiple FLV files with minimal effort by using the After Effects Render Queue. Manage renders for multiple compositions and export formats, including FLV and F4V files.
