Pretty cool, the camera sweeps are certainly better in After Effects.

Yep, After Effects sure is fuckin sweet! I've never done frame-by-frame animaiton in it, I'm guessing it's not too good for that.
You're gonna have to just experiment with different ways of exporting the video to get the filesize down. I can get a minute-long 640x480 video down to like 10mb as a .wmv, but I'm not a super experienced video person.

I think you could still learn a whole lot about animating things in a way that looks good and fluid, by the way.

I've been thinking more and more about trying AE for animation instead of flash for sprite animation. First off, I don't THINK I would have to worry about a V-Cam or anything of the sort (unless I wanted to and will most likely use). Secondly, I do think I would enjoy a more cinematic effect for the animations that I do make.

But what would you do about movieclips and such? I mean, for the actual animation bit? Would you just make it in Flash and then put it into AE?

the animation looks pretty smooth to me but from what you said it adds a helluvalot to the filesize. i would like to see more animations from you in the future because you seem to have a better talent for it than myself. shit it's been almost 4 years since i animated anything. i feel old lol
