To make special effects to our movies, to make animations we can't have on adobe Flash..I Specially love to use After effects for kinetic typography animation. :)
I Agree with Mr. Walid Kerkeni
In more detail and experiences...
I agreed with other members - Adobe After Effects is a software application for creating video compositions, animations and special effects. It is very popular with video makers — almost an industry standard in the mid-professional level. Only productions with extremely high demands or large budgets would need anything more sophisticated. After Effects is perfectly capable of producing high-quality compositions for television programs, commercials and even feature films.
After Effects uses a similar general workflow as most video editing software: Each project includes a collection of media assets that are arranged in layers on a timeline.
Where After Effects differs from normal editors is that it is specifically designed for special effects. Although After Effects does let you perform most common editing tasks, its real purpose is to create advanced effects and composites rather than just cutting shots together. Typically, you would do the bulk of your editing work in an application such as Premiere Pro and use After Effects to work on smaller sections of the video that require advanced tools i.e: Motion text animated over time to tracking for basic VFX.
After Effects is a tool that requires imagination. If you are wondering "how to edit in After Effects" you are probably missing the point. After Effects is like a canvas and some paint with stop watch to record changes to playback — you decide what to do make with it.
My personal favourite feature I couldn't live without is 'Dynamic linking' workflow that you can move in/out apps sharing contents.
