Compositing and effects software

Message Bookmarked

I have After Effects on my mac, but have never really tried to get to grips with it. Does anyone use this or any similar package (Shake,etc) for effects/compositing. When I was working as an editor, I noticed that a lot of older Avid operators were a little wary of these new technologies, and stubbornly refused to learn them. How commonplace are they for newere editors/people working in the industry? Can you see evidence of After Effects the same way you can tell a generic Photoshop "effect"? This is always a problem with image manipulation software of any kind. If so, who is After Effects aimed at? Corporate video-makers, etc.?

I've goofed around a bit with AE, but don't know it really well. From what I hear from friends it's a really great, versatile, and easy-to-learn program. Though I'm not quite sure what exactly it's good for, besides titles & zooming into & around still images etc.
