what's the secret to getting vector layer onto video. I have all the tools (final cut, flash, after effects...) can some one help please?

just make your illustartor comp with multiple layers, then import it, not as footage, but as AE composition in AfterEffects and it will kepp all vecotrs on multiple layers. Remember - It's a good idea to make crop marks at a 720x540 comp - AE will use that as a reference, so that circels will remain round in the translation from computer to video.
hope this helps.skinny

you can export layers in a flash movie straight to AE.
i dunno AE, but i know that people do it a lot. been meaning to get my hands into some after effects.

I make all the vector animations in Flash, and import it in AE.

schjetne makes all his vector animations in Flash, and imports it in AE.

thanks guys, i don't know AE too well, but i'll try it. Damn i wish final cut read flash layers, or at least kept my b/g tranparent on my swf files.
BTW, AE 5.5 should import as explained above right?
