We have another monkey! Dan Ebberts and Orrin Zucker have leveraged the “Monkey” assistance and automation theme into another new product, MotionMonkey.

The plugin can take After Effects Text Layers, still images, videos, PreComps, Solids, Shapes, Nulls, or even Illustrator or Photoshop files and easily create animations from them. MotionMonkey offers the same level of simplicity as TypeMonkey and LayerMonkey, keeping the same ideology to creating animation with a few clicks, while still allowing for more control when needed.
