What It Does
Motioneer Lite handles animation reuse in After Effects. Copy keyframes, masks, or transformation properties from one layer or selection, then apply them to other layers while the plugin automatically adjusts for different composition sizes and layer dimensions. The positioning and fitting adapt to preserve the original animation’s intent.
Key Features
Motioneer copy tool. Select keyframes and masks, or grab entire transformation properties and masks from layers. The tool captures the animation data ready for transfer.
Add tool. Attach copied animations to selected layers. The animations layer on top of existing keyframes rather than replacing them.
Replace tool. Replace animations on selected layers with copied data. The plugin recalculates comp and layer ratios automatically, adapting the animation to fit new contexts without manual adjustment.
The engine supports expressions, parents, and track mattes, maintaining these relationships when transferring animations between layers.
Who It’s For
Useful for motion designers building out multiple similar animations or adapting existing work to different formats. Anyone working with repetitive animation tasks across compositions of varying sizes will find the automatic ratio retention helpful. Works from After Effects CS6 through 2026.
Pricing
Paid at $29.99 for a one-time purchase. A trial version is available. Users who own qualifying products from the developer may see special upgrade pricing when logged in. The full version of Motioneer ($49.99) adds the ability to save animations as a library for later reuse.
