Illustrator Layers to After Effects Animation Practice | Parallaxing Nature Scene

I wanted to figure out and test the best way to bring Illustrator Layers into an After Effects composition and created this little nature scene in the process. I think it's good to push a project through to completion even if its a little test project to make sure you work through any issues that might come up in the process to really push your learning. I ended up going back to Illustrator a couple of times to create the little dolphin and then the birds. I also had fun adding sound to kind of bring it to life a little more. Feel free to post any questions.
