Bring higher production values to your projects by adding the world-class motion graphics and visual effects capabilities of Adobe® After Effects® to the power of your NLE. After Effects excels at 2D and 3D compositing, keying, rotoscoping, and addressing a wide variety of post-production challenges.
Innovative compositing and animation tools
Create high-impact communications by combining moving and still imagery, graphics, and text in 2D or 3D space. Animate virtually any aspect of each element, and add sound for further impact.
Text and vector graphics creation and animation enhanced
Create text and vector graphics in After Effects using familiar Adobe tools, and then animate these elements to create visually innovative motion graphics.
Tight integration with other Adobe software
