After Effects AI Plugin: 6 Build Samples using ChatGPT + Higgsfield
Shows motion designers and AI filmmakers how AE-integrated AI plugins can automate joint pin rigging, multi-format aspect ratio reframing, and procedural particle setups while preserving raw editable project layers.
What this lesson covers
Diego Galvao presents six motion design workflows created using Higgsfield's AI Motion Designer plugin inside Adobe After Effects with ChatGPT assistance. He demonstrates kinetic typography, editorial scenes, character rigging, product/UI animation, procedural VFX, and automated multi-format adaptation.

- 0:30 ↗
Kinetic typography workflows build individual, fully editable word layers with timing controlled by draggable timeline markers.
- 1:06 ↗
Editorial scene setups lock motion and depth speeds across multiple artwork layers to a central helper layer for quick camera adjustments.
- 1:51 ↗
Automated character rigging analyzes rough sketches, divides them into separate artwork layers, and places joint pins for animation.
- 2:33 ↗
Product animation features can generate complete UI layouts, timed text, and virtual camera sweeps from a single photo brief.
- 3:09 ↗
Procedural VFX capabilities construct multi-element particle swarms using standard built-in After Effects tools without external plugins.
- 3:48 ↗
Layout adaptation engines re-anchor text and cards across square, tall, and ultrawide formats while automatically resizing text boxes for translations.
Workflow outlined in the video
- Install Adobe After Effects on your workstation.
- Connect the Higgsfield AI Motion Designer plugin to your After Effects setup.
- Brief ChatGPT with project requirements, animation styles, or layout parameters.
- Tweak helper layers and timing markers directly in the After Effects timeline to customize camera motion and visual feel.
- Use the automated translation and format-shifting tools to generate square, vertical, and localized variants from a single master composition.
