Parallax brings live collaboration to After Effects
An After Effects panel lets collaborators open the same project, transfer footage, and see edits sync in real time.
Field notes
The workflow starts with a saved After Effects project: the host starts a room, receives a six-letter code, and collaborators join through their own panels. The page says project files and footage transfer in the background and relink as they arrive, with compatibility listed for After Effects 2023 and newer. Collaboration is selective rather than screen-wide: layers, keyframes, expressions, effects, masks, comps, and footage are shared, while playback position and undo history remain local.
