Course Description

Learn how to create layers 3D and how to use 3D cameras and lights. You will also be taught how to use 2D and 3D layers together, and how to use pre-comping to make our layers interact. We will then dive into 3D camera, and how to create a null doll system that makes it easier to use the camera and create the transitions we want. We will also learn how to do some cool things in 3D like creating per-character 3D transforms for text, and using the depth of field system, which creates realistic depth blurring and bokeh. SoftwareRequired: After Effects 5.

What You Will Learn

Learn how to make layers 3D, and how to work with 3D cameras and lights

We will also learn all the little tips and tricks to using 2D and 3D layers together and using pre-comping and collapse transforms to correctly have our various layers interact

From there we will dive deeper into the 3D camera and learn how to create a null dolly system to make it easier to work with the camera and create transitions that we expect

Finally, we will learn some neat things we can do in 3D, like per character 3D transforms on text and the powerful depth of field system which gives us realistic depth blur and bokeh
