> Is After Effects toolset similar to photoshop?

Somewhat.

Do you have a more specific question?

Here’s a page that outlines similarities and how the two programs work together.

After Effects contins the entire Photoshop rendering engine inside of it, so things like layer styles and blending modes are identical between the two (although After Effects doesn’t supply direct access to all of the features through its UI).
