- This kind of s**t.
Animate?
After Effects?
; )ideaist - We use AE for al this type of animation, there's a great plug-in called Overlord, that should help bring in your vectors from Illy and layer them up.robthelad
- Also recently anything (shapes/vectors) in XD can be exported directly to AE without rasterising. Images work, but yeah.robthelad
- DUDE, Battle Axe / Overlord looks R-A-D-!
Thanks brother!!!ideaist - As for advice and tutorials i don't know enough resources.robthelad
- Overlord is a great help if you work in Illustrator a lot. My favorite part of the is directly moving type from AI to AE.CyBrainX
- The C4D equivalent to Overlord is AEC4D Pro. You can send any object, camera etc. directly to AE and update when ever you change something in C4D.CyBrainX

better: lets you export different formats to use on webpages or video as you require.AE, Animate also good for the animation part. but harder to export for different media.

Piggybacking off uan - if your endpoint is for use on web (or even video still) there are a lot of tools that are more lean than AE while also including baked in functionality that allow for things like expanded interactivity or better file optimization.
I've currently been playing around with Rive ( https://rive.app/ ) and learning how to use their "state machine".
Some others that I have evaluated (mileage varies base on needed features):
https://lottiefiles.com/
https://www.lottielab.com/
https://jitter.video/
https://www.aninix.com/- AE will obviously have the most support and related tutorials at this point; however, the basics of motion design/animation kinda translate regardless of toolduckseason
- Should also check out Cavalry:
https://cavalry.scen…koma_ - ^Yeah, calvary looked cool as well, especially for more generative stuffduckseason
- Rive is nice for work that coexists with interactivity. I’ve only dabbled, but I’m impressed so far. The animation in Duolingo is built with Rive.pusherbot
- I saw some web-based video timeline editor thing recently, let me see if I can find it. I meant to bookmark it :/Nairn
- It wasn't this, but I just found this
