Thank you, njoo2as. I only rigged and animated the characters of all shorts. Other four guys made the final composition of the four shorts using After Effects. The water shine was made by a fusion of real footage with the original drawings, it implies several effects I couldn't detail because I'm an amateur on AE.

Ahh ok...I figured it was AE. Thanks! I'll look up some AE + AS tutorials online.

I don't think there be much "AE+AS tutorials". The principle is very basic, you export the animation from AS with alpha channel. Then you import that video on AE and do your magic. I mean, learn how to use both softwares and you will understand how to use together.
Anyway, to save your money and your brain, you can make a lot using just AS, technically there is no urgent need to use another software, you can get wonderful results in AS.
