December 2023 release (version 24.1)
The December 2023 (24.1) release presents a new feature, user-requested workflow improvements, and important fixes in After Effects that enable you to work more efficiently and design even the finest details without compromising your creative vision.
3D Model Import
Natively import 3D models (GLB, GLTF) with materials directly into After Effects and design your compositions in a unified space with 3D shapes and text.
Image-Based Lighting
Use 360-degree High Dynamic Range Image (HDRI) files as a light source to realistically place models into a scene with complementary lighting and shadows, making objects appear as though they naturally belong.
Advanced 3D renderer
Render 3D motion graphics with this high-performance, GPU-powered engine that offers high-quality antialiasing and transparency.
2D/3D interoperability
Seamlessly use 2D and 3D elements in the same composition to create more visually exciting and complex animations.
Animated lights and cameras
Get creative flexibility by extracting lights and cameras from a 3D model to improve the lighting in your scene and create dynamic camera effects.
3D Snapping
Align and position 3D layers and objects with pixel-perfect accuracy.
3D model-driven effects
Combine 2D and 3D workflows in one composition. Effects that reference another layer, such as Displacement Map, Vector Blur, or Calculations, can use a 3D model layer as a source to create highly stylized renders.
Refreshed animation presets
Updated and improved existing animation presets that have a modernized look and are easier to configure.
Fixed issues in the December 2023 release (version 24.1)
Clearing the preferences from Startup and Repair no longer crashes After Effects.
In the Properties panel, the Fill and Stroke colors no longer reset when switching from solid color to gradient and back.
In the Properties panel, Stroke controls now correctly toggle when the Stroke checkbox is changed.
Changing the frame rate of a composition no longer causes the UI to freeze or lag.
Keyframes on time stretched response design now correctly follow the cursor when dragged.
Blocked older version of Animation Composer that caused After Effects to crash.

Apr 9, 2011 Version: 10
OS: Windows 7 64-bit Ease of use: 8/10
Functionality: 9/10
Value for money: 9/10
Overall: 9/10
Tight integration with Photoshop and Illustrator and one of the easiest compositors to understand and use (but they're all complicated). Uses a familiar layered timeline interface. A myriad of great 3rd party plug ins (3D, light filters, special fx etc), some of which cost more than the application! Pro version includes extra base filter pack.
I'd like it more if Adobe had included autosave with my version, but unlike other compositors AE rarely crashes and allows you to work to deadlines. Suitable for pros and hobbyists with plenty of spare cash!
