Ranks among the more popular entries in the aescripts library, and stands out for keeping Lottie preview, export and sharing inside After Effects.
LottieFiles is an extension that lets you explore Lottie animations directly inside After Effects and Premiere Pro. You can import animations into After Effects and export them as Lottie JSON or dotLottie, then test, preview and implement those animations across websites, apps and more.
Inside the extension panel, the plugin previews your animation as a Lottie playing in the web Lottie player, and a render timing graph helps optimise Lottie file size and CPU performance. You can upload animations to LottieFiles as progress checkpoints, privately share and demo them with others, and search thousands of free public Lottie animations on the LottieFiles website, drawing inspiration or downloading the AEP.
Recent versions add a Motion System for applying brand colours, fonts, easings and motion presets to After Effects layers in one click, plus multi-animation dotLottie support and interactivity. Version 4.9.1 supports After Effects releases from CC 2014 through 2026.
