Adobe After Effects
Adobe After Effects is the ideal tool to compose your creative projects. Combine elements such as video, images and even 3D content to reach an impressive end result. Even if you have created something in Adobe Animate, you can use After Effects for fine-tuning and adding extras. It offers a wide range of plug-ins and effects and integrates seamlessly with other tools such as Cinema 4D. Although the focus is on video export, it is also convenient for converting your creations to GIF files.
Adobe Animate
If you’ve previously worked with Adobe Flash, Adobe Animate will feel instantly familiar. This modernised version of Flash is the go-to tool for creating sleek 2D animations for the web. Working with vector files ensures razor-sharp visuals at any resolution. With Adobe Animate, you can effortlessly create GIFs, PNG sequences, and HTML5 canvas documents. Whether you’re developing animated web banners, games, or mobile apps that require HTML, Adobe Animate provides everything you need to bring your ideas to life.
Choose based on your output
The key difference between the two programs is that Adobe After Effects is a more powerful and complex tool primarily designed for video animation. It typically outputs MP4 files but also supports various other video formats. Adobe Animate, on the other hand, is tailored for web animations, generating HTML5 code and other web-friendly formats. Both tools are excellent for creating motion graphics, but in terms of raw capabilities and versatility, Adobe After Effects takes the lead.
