I wonder if there is any hollywood movies or feature film (non-hollywood) that used after effects as a main VFX tool?

Correct answer Andrew Yoole

It's used in many films, but of course often in tandem with other software. Most effects in feature films are created shot by shot, so it's not uncommon for different artists, or even different companies, to create different shots or different components within a single scene. I've worked on a few shots in features and used AE for compositing, and even specifically to use Trapcode Particular in a shot from a pretty major film.

Here's a quite old thread discussing the same topic, with some large features mentioned.

Everything Everywhere All at Once used animated AE shape layers in the chef scene. Generally from my experience though compositing tends to be done with more high end apps like Nuke

I believe Hollywood makes extensive use of VFX tools. I’ve watched several movies online through MagisTV, and the visual effects looked incredibly realistic and well done. It’s clear that Hollywood uses every possible resource to ensure a film’s success.

For the past several decades, After Effects plays a key role in the design and creation of opening title sequences and show opens.

From an effects standpoint, Everything Everywhere All at Once comes to mind right away.

I think Hollywood uses VFX tools, I have watched some movies online through HDO Box online and found the effects very good and realistic. So there is nothing that Hollywood does not use to ensure the success of the movie.
