Overall Satisfaction with Adobe After Effects

We are a small video and photo production company. We have been using Adobe After Effects for years, to insert animations into our videos, animate titles, cut out, and many other things.
  • Track an object to insert animations.
  • Create transition effects better than in Premiere.
  • Best use RAM memory.
  • Sometimes the timeline interface is problematic.
  • We no longer need to rely on external studies for many effects.
  • With a little practice you can do without expensive plugins and create the same effects yourself.
Obviously I use Premiere to edit and After Effects to post-produce. In the past I used 4D Cinema to create objects to insert in the videos, but now with a few external plugins all the objects you want are inserted.
The Adobe forum is an encyclopedia about the product.

Do you think Adobe After Effects delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Adobe After Effects's feature set?

Yes

Did Adobe After Effects live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Adobe After Effects go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Adobe After Effects again?

Yes

It is essential if you want to give your videos a further creative touch. With external plug-ins and many tutorials made available, even the less experienced can insert atmospheric effects, color shades, explosions and many other things. It is not appropriate for simple video montages, for that there is Premiere.

Using Adobe After Effects

2 - We are both media creators.
2 - We have been using the software for 10 years.
  • Titles.
  • Inserting objects.
  • Color key.
  • 3D video effects.
  • We are trying to exploit the software in many ways.
From sporadic use, now we use it for every video.

Evaluating Adobe After Effects and Competitors

Yes - We use fewer external plugins.
  • Product Features
  • Prior Experience with the Product
Software is provided to interface perfectly with Premiere and allow you to create beautiful effects.
I doubt I'll change my mind about the software, it's the best on the market.
