Lottie Animation & After Effects Tutorial

Cuberto·Design Team·May 27, 2021·10 min read

Lottie has revolutionized how we implement animations on web and mobile. This tutorial covers the complete workflow from designing animations in After Effects to implementing them with the Lottie library.

After Effects Workflow

We design a set of UI animations following Lottie's supported features. Understanding the constraints upfront ensures your animations export cleanly without unsupported effects.

Implementation

Using the Bodymovin plugin to export JSON, we integrate the animations into a web project. We cover lazy loading, playback control, and interaction triggers that make Lottie animations responsive to user behavior.
