Gold-standard Suite

Core interactions used in every session: one-click anchor point snapping, inline speed graph editing, fill/stroke color controls, and layer isolation via Focus groups. Used by professionals worldwide since 2013.
Pinned Tools
Anchor
Ease
  • Anchor

    Snap layer Anchor Points to bounding box margins in one-click.

  • Ease

    Adjust keyframe speed by dragging your cursor in the graph, or using mirrored slider controls.

  • Color

    Preview and manipulate color space with sliders and expanded controls.

  • Focus

    Visually isolate selected layers in your timeline and composition.

  • Pinned Tools

    Tools and workflows can be pinned, re-ordered and removed in two special groups.

Pages of Motion

Five dedicated pages inside the extension: advanced easing with cubic, speed, and influence graphs; Color for fill, stroke, hue, saturation, and vibrance controls; Focus for layer isolation and group management; a full Tools library browser; and a search page to find and launch any tool, setting, or recent action.
Search
Advanced Easing
Focus
  • Advanced Easing

    Edit and manipulate keyframe speed, influence and value without visiting the Graph Editor.

  • Focus

    Isolate and control layers and groups.

  • Tools

    The libary of all the tools and workflows in the Motion Studio extension.

  • Search

    Find and launch tools, settings, preferences and browse your recent tool runs.

Deep Workflows

Full-page tools with their own sub-menus for tasks you repeat daily. Edit composition settings, scrub the timeline with custom frame snapping, generate and record particle simulations via Emitter, and save/re-apply keyframe sets with Re-Key.
Re-Key
Composition
Timeline
  • Composition

    Preview and change composition settings with modern controls.

  • Timeline

    Manage your work area and preview animation in a new scrub method.

  • Emitter

    Generate and record simulation assets, no rendering and instant playback.

  • Re-Key

    Save, re-apply, re-time and share keyframes.

Everything Toolbox

Single-click tools that automate common actions: Delay for expression-based stagger, Falloff for distance-driven attenuation, Null for instant control rigs, Shapes for geometric primitives, and Sort to organize your project panel automatically.
Tools
Delay
Falloff
  • Delay

    Universally control and stagger values across multiple layers with expression-based timing.

  • Falloff

    Manipulate properties with spatial attenuation — animate values based on distance from a source.

  • Null

    Create invisible control objects and parent selected layers for cleaner rigs.

  • Shapes

    Collection of geometric primitives — create pre-built shape layers with a single click.

  • Sort

    Automatically sort and organize the project panel and all media content and folders.

  • Tools

    The tools library is always getting new releases, like Re-Key, Grids and Key Assist — new methods to explore animation.

Studio Experience

The standalone desktop app manages your entire setup: install and update extensions, organize color palettes and easing libraries, build custom Mini panels, browse open-source vector assets, and configure Re-Key presets. Also includes Resolve Ease for DaVinci Resolve users.

Frequently Asked Questions

Motion Studio is a suite of 80+ tools and 1000+ controls for motion designers. It runs as an extension inside Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, and Illustrator, with a standalone desktop app that manages installation, libraries, and configuration. It also includes Resolve Ease for DaVinci Resolve.
Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Illustrator, and DaVinci Resolve. The After Effects extension has the full toolset. Premiere Pro and Illustrator have select tools (easing, grids, color, sort, switchboard). DaVinci Resolve gets the Resolve Ease graph editor.
80+ tools across categories: easing (cubic, speed, and influence graphs), anchor point manipulation, layer management (focus groups, stagger, sort, rename), color (hue, saturation, vibrance, eyedropper), keyframe tools (clone, blend, animo, re-key), animation automation (delay, falloff, excite, jump, orbit, spin), creative generators (emitter, canvas, burst, shapes), and much more
Yes. Download Motion Studio from the Downloads page and use it free for 7 days with full access to every tool. No credit card required.
Motion 4 was an After Effects-only extension. Motion Studio is the successor — standalone desktop app, expanded toolset, multi-app support for Premiere Pro, Illustrator, and DaVinci Resolve, library management, Mini panels, and monthly feature releases.
