Quite a nice piece, and looks like a lot of work... Love the bit with the ants at the end.
My question is though... What software do people use for animating something like this... All the vector movements and so on... Is it done in AfterFX, or Flash?

Not flash, unless they have put swfs into AE.
AE and probably some 3Ds max.

I've not use AE... Does it allow you to animate elements easily in this way, or is it quite tricky?
- vespa0
It's trickier but you have more control than flash and the movie will never slow down like a flash one might if you had all that animation going on at once.

Thanks for the info Vespa.

Just to put your mind at rest:
The movie is broken down into sections, and each section was done either in AE or Flash. The middle bit, with the layers of the earths crust was all done in flash, most of the other bits were done in AE. It was all put together in Premier. The music was created in Reason.
Whole thing took exactly a week to do(late nights included).We had never really used AE before but is worth getting to grips with, it's a very powerful tool. The stuff we do in the future will hopefully be much more accomplished.
