Complex Lottie Animations From After Effects Always Failed Until I Tried This 

I had to work on a very complex flag animation for my product some 2 years ago and it wasn't working. I made it into a GIF and split everything frame by frame, exported the PNG and stringed it together in AE. 😂 The file was super heavy but our mobile guy was able to make it work. This is a much more efficient method!

Hmm interesting, I think I have 2 options to get scalable animations with Figma files 1. Importing the figma files into Adobe Illustrator, converting the ai file in ae to shape layers and render with bodymovin 2. Export figma file as .svg and import it in lottiecreator browser, making the animation there but with many limitations and some extra costs Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Advantages for the first one are I can possibly use more effects and do some more complex animations but with the disadvantage that it won't handle gradients and blurs. Advantages for the second are I can handle the gradients and blurs but I can't animate everything as detailed as in AE Sadly that AE doesn't support svg files yet 😭 it could be way better lmao

Thank you so so much!

Great content as usual!

Another awesome tutorial! thanks! question...why do you use the bodymovin vs lottie plugin? thanks again!

IMG sequences aren't rendering.. how did you do it?
