When you need to produce a video for your business, where do you start? Adobe After Effects is one of the best animation apps, but it takes time to learn.
Instead of learning a new program, you can use a template: simply drop in your own logo and information. In this round-up, check out professionally-designed After Effects projects from Envato Elements and Envato Market that you can use for your company's video, no complex animation skills required.
These templates are all easy to customize for your own use but, just in case, at the bottom of this page you'll also find a tutorial on how to use one.
