  • Easy-to-do animations over the top of videos

    Posted by Santiago Pilgrim on April 4, 2014 at 11:02 am

    Hi all,

    I have seen a lot of easy-to-use animation apps like ‘goanimate’ – I’m sure you’re all familiar with these.

    Is there anything that allows me to create these animations but then, instead of having them as stand-alone animations, put them over the top of videos?

    Like for exmaple if we had a talking heads/explainer video, we could illustrate points with basic animation.

    I know this can be done in After Effects, what I’m really looking for is an easier, less time consuming option.

    Thanks in advance!

    Santiago.

    How does this software you’re speaking of create the final video? Is it a video file like AVI, MOV, MP4, etc.? If so, you can bring that into AE very easily.
