We mostly use the latest versions of Sony Vegas Pro to edit our videos, though we may venture outside of that program and into Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 to do more advanced editing with the film.

But when it comes to actual animation, there are two ways we usually go about this. If the shots don’t require heavy amounts of visual effects and can all be done in Flash, then I simply ask the animators to export their sequences from Flash and convert them into video files that we can edit with. 

However, if the sequence requires a lot of effects work that can only be done in After Effects, we ask the animators to export their sequences layer by layer so that we can work off of the sequence individually and compile it in After Effects itself. This method was done primarily with the Midwestria Promo (the sequence with Twilight limping through the woods), compositing and layering together a sequence so we can freely apply the visual effects needed.
