Exporting a composition from illustrator
Can I export an composition from illustrator, lets say an assembled motor cycle model, and still have all the pieces maintain their relative position. It seems I have to do a reassembly. Is there a way around this?

Not that I know of. If it’s an option, simply export your AI as a layered PSD. It will be easier for AE to handle this, anyway (it doesn’t need to rasterize).

Make sure that your saving the AI file as pdf compatible. Place cropping layer at the edges of you AI file.
In AE import file as composition – cropped layers.
Make sure to put anything you want to animate separate from the other objects (on it’s own layer) as everything on a layer is one object in AE.
If your not going to scale the image up you wouldn’t need to set continuously rasterize, if your are then use it.TonyTony

I may have describe it incorrectly because it has been a while for me as well but all the layer should come in and remain lined up.
Less mograph more Vfx lately as well as doing a lot of the text right in AE.
