Description

3D Layer creates a three-dimensional layer with visible 'thickness' in After Effects. Your 3D mesh can be bent, warped, punched through, texture mapped, and animated, like this United States map.

3D Layer's raytracing render engine is powered by Conoa. Every time you use this plug-in, the render will give you high quality, beautiful reflections and refractions.

Working in 3D After Effects's built-in 3D layers are similar to postcards. They have no depth, so they appear as very thin layers floating in space. While this is fine for some animations, objects in the real world have thickness or depth to them. You need to add this depth to your layer to make it appear truly 3D.

Imagine a layer in After Effects that looks like a wooden sign swinging open or a waving flag. Then imagine that object with a 'thickness' to its edge. If you are trying to create more realistic objects in After Effect's 3D space, we feel that 3D Layer offers up a flexible, creative solution.

Conoa 3D Layer was formerly owned by Digital Anarchy.
