There is an easier way. Just select the layers in InDesign, copy, then paste in an Illustrator artboard. I haven't checked on Mac, but on Windows it copies the layers as is with editable text, though drop shadows and effects transfer as clip groups. (Hopefully one day there will be a proper link between the apps!)

what an awesome way to bring your print or static designs to life! Thank you for posting.

Thank you so much!

That's great idea to use indd files. I very curious how to use indd files on a different way. It is a good idea to make project in indd page and later animate it on AE

Thank you!! 😍⚡👏

I'm not sure what went wrong, the idea here is to start with InDesign and end with After Effects not the other way around.

Shame on adobe that you can't do this out of the box
