Why use after effects?

After Effects is a software used for animation, visual effects, and motion picture compositing. It is used in film, TV, and web video creation, and has hundreds of effects that can be used to manipulate imagery. Here are some reasons why you might want to use After Effects:

• Motion Graphics: After Effects is renowned for its motion graphics tools, which designers and animators use to create 2D and 3D animations with vectors and rasterized art.
• Visual Effects: After Effects can add a wide variety of visual effects (or VFX) to your videos by compositing multiple images to create a unique shot, or by using the power of rotoscoping to isolate people or objects from a video and adding unique touches like a 3D motion graphic into a scene.
• Post-Production: After Effects is used in the post-production phase of video production, and is often used to enhance footage that has already been shot.
• Compositing: After Effects allows you to combine layers of video and images into the same scene, making it a powerful tool for compositing.

While Premiere Pro is better for cutting, arranging, and enhancing things you’ve already shot, After Effects is the industry standard for creating impressive motion graphics and visual effects to your videos. Therefore, if you want to add complex visual effects, create motion graphics, or composite multiple layers of video and images, After Effects is the better choice.
