Do I need to buy illustrator or another product to be able to use after effects, or is it a stand alone product?

Thanks

    It is a stand alone product. You can download the free trial or buy the subscription here: Creative Cloud pricing and membership plans | Adobe Creative Cloud

    Under the single app plan select After Effects and follow the prompts. If you are a student with a valid ID you can purchase all of the apps for the same price as an individual app.

    No. You don't need to buy Illustrator for learning After Effects.

    That all depends on what you're going to DO with it.
