Pixi.js: After Effects to PIXI.js

[karthickvkumar]

Hi @GoodBoyDigital @ivanpopelyshev ,
I saw this after effect example, It show the option renderer: 'pixi' I would like to know whether this will use the pixi js renderer technique or else it will create a pixi js canvas for making animation.

Also would like to know is it possible to load after effect animations into pixi js?

Thanks in Advance

Hi! @bigtimebuddy is our expert on Adobe software :)

@karthickvkumar I'm not familiar with any tooling right now for After Effects. We have not be involved in bodymovin, so maybe the author of that example will have some guidance for you. Maybe someone out there knows of some alternative pipelines for After Effects.

At the very least, there might be some spritesheet exporting approach you could try. E.g., exporting each frame of the AE animation as standalone PNGs and then packing together using TexturePacker.

A robust exporter for After Effects seem like a good idea though. I created an Adobe Animate exporter here (repo).

@karthickvkumar The other day, I released https://github.com/knocknote/pixi-after-effects .
This library can use AfterEffects animation as PIXI.Container ! Please see it :)
