Second-to-none visual effects

Ah, the things you can do with Adobe After Effects! Its impressive set of tools and functionalities has made it the preferred choice of filmmakers, video designers and animators-professionals and amateurs. Created by Adobe, this monster of an editing application was built for creating video animations, visual effects, motion graphics and compositions. Just turn on the TV for a few minutes-a good part of whatever you're watching is probably made with After Effects.

While its workflow is pretty similar to a lot of the existing video editing software, and it can be indeed used for video editing, what really sets After Effects apart is its focus on visual effects. So don't think that it's a similar product to Premiere Pro-it's not! Premiere Pro is perfect for editing, and its timeline allows you to work seamlessly with both video and audio. After Effects is made for creative compositions, special effects and motion graphics. The two can work together as well: you can edit your video by cutting and adding clips together on Premiere Pro, and then use After Effects to add special effects to specific parts of your clip. There's room for all the creativity you can master!

With After Effects project files, or templates, your work with motion graphics and visual effects will get a lot easier. In short, they are customizable After Effect files, neatly organized and labelled. You can easily change colors, text and other design elements without having to spend time on creating timelines and effects. It's all there-you just need to customize it to fit your project.
