Working on a vector animation from Adobe Animate

[Agata5F8A]

Hi,

I intend to create a simple animation video, based mostly on close-ups and some simple object movements of the illustrations I created as vector graphics in Illustrator.

It is my understanding that Premiere Pro doesn't support vector graphics, so I plan on using Adobe Animate to animate the said illustrations and then export an animated video that I'd put into Premiere Pro for some final improvements, but also things like changing colors of certain things (based on color only, not objects anymore, so I'll just play with the effects controls).

This way of working seems to be a little around, be I think it will help preserve the sharpness of the illustrations' close-ups while animating so that when it's converted into a video for premiere pro (meaning every frame rasterized), every frame would be of the same quality and sharpness.

But is there a quicker/smarter/more efficient way to do that? Or maybe there's something along the way I'm missing that will hurt the final result anyway?

Any advice on the topic is welcome!

Cheers

It would be better if you can share what kind of animation you're trying to create in Animate CC.

However, I would recommend you to use After effects for animations because After effects can import AI files as vectors and you can easily animate them...After-effects have options like morgt workflow with premiere pro or to import the After effects file natively into Premiere pro without taking the render into video from After Effects. 

following videos should help you understand the workflow -

Thank you!

The suggestion to work on that in After Effects seems helpful. With the Continuesly Rasterize feature it seems like there's no need for me to use Animate.

Thank you once again!

You can import Ai files directly into PPro.

Usually a good way of working is to prepare artwork first before bringing it into PPro, as you cannot size up Ai files imported in PPro. Usually, I create a canvas in Illustrator that meets or exceeds the specs of my edit and then I size up the vectors in Illustrator before importing them into PPro.

But, if you wish to do more extensive animation, After Effects is a far better choice than PPro.

Hope this helps.
