How to Animate a Logo in After Effects from Start to Finish

This tutorial was created a little differently from the others. A client needed an animated logo, and I realised it was the perfect chance to walk through how I take an SVG file, prep it, and animate it in After Effects. I screen recorded the actual workflow, then scripted and edited it into this concise and practical tutorial. You’ll learn how to: Prep SVG logos in Adobe Illustrator by separating elements into layers Import layered artwork into After Effects as a composition Use null objects and continuous rasterisation to scale cleanly Animate reveals using trim paths, alpha mattes, and masking techniques Create smooth, polished movement with motion blur and the graph editor This is a real-world, client-based breakdown, turned into a clean, step-by-step tutorial.
