Figma is a powerful design tool that allows users to quickly and easily create graphics, illustrations, and designs. After Effects is an animation and motion graphics program used for creating high-quality visuals and effects.
While both tools are useful for creating visual content, there may be times when you need to convert a Figma design into an After Effects project. Fortunately, it is relatively easy to do this.
Steps To Convert From Figma To After Effects:
- 1. Export the Figma project as an SVG file.
- 2. Import the SVG file into After Effects.
- 3. Select each layer in the Figma file and convert them into shapes in After Effects.
- 4. Animate each layer individually.
- 5.
Adjust the settings of each layer according to your needs.
- 6. Add any other additional effects or transitions as needed.
Tips For Converting From Figma To After Effects:
- 1. When exporting from Figma, it’s important to select the highest quality format possible (SVG). This will ensure that all of your layers remain sharp when imported into After Effects.
- 2. When converting from a vector image into an animated shape layer in After Effects, make sure to adjust the settings of each layer as needed (e.g., size, position, color).
