  Open in Illustrator.
  
  Save as .ai (sorting the layers according to your needs)
  
  Import into Ae.
  
  Mind with the 'Import Kind' upon importing, suggest 'Composition' if you sorted the graphics into numbers of layers.

  It's worth noting that `.eps` files are acceptable. In my case, I own Sketch but not Illustrator so exporting `.svg` to `.eps` was more accessible than `.ai`
  
  Also be aware when you import them they might look blurry when transforming. In order to scale properly:
  
  Right-click the layer and hit `Create > Create Shapes From Vector Layer`
