UI After Effect-like Animations: How to?

Hi,

I would like to create 2D UI Animations (possibly also being able to use them in 3D in a World Space Canvas).

The results I would like to achieve is something similar to this:

However, I don’t seem to be able to effectively draw lines, stretch shapes and create that type of animation with the UI Animation system in Unity.

I have tried a couple of plugins from the Asset store that allow to import from after effect to Unity but they don’t seem to work properly, as they do not work with non PNG-based or non footage-based animations (in after effect line drawings and shapes are vectorial, and those plugins don’t seem to handle them).

I’m talking about AE2Unity and After Effect Importer

Question: does anybody know a plugin, external tool or external software that can be used (even with some importing work) to do what described?

Thank you for the support

Hey did you find anything?

nope. Probably using sprites animated is the “close enough” solution

I am looking for the same thing. I found this sprite deformation tool which I think would work nicely but its also $20 Unity Asset Store - The Best Assets for Game Making.

I hope AEJuice Starter Pack and other packs from them will fit your needs.

Discovered it around 1.5 years ago and used some UI animations in my projects from them and seems that they are really well designed.
