It introduces a groundbreaking approach that enables users to retain the familiarity of 2D shape layers while harnessing the power of enhanced 3D manipulation. While After Effects provides many first-party tools and effects for 2D layers, the options for 3D layers are comparatively limited. It overcomes this challenge by computing the necessary 3D transformations and incorporating them within 2D path properties through Adobe Javascript Expression Engine.
You can effortlessly set up appearances and animations and even manipulate the original 2D path with the Extrudalized shape, magnifying its creative potential. Moreover, this script is fully compatible with the Lottie format for web usage and can be seamlessly exported using the Bodymovin plugin.
Enjoy the freedom to elevate your 2D shapes into a dynamic 3D environment, breathing new life into your designs.
Initiate the extrusion process with a single click, adding a custom controller and text layer for precise control.
Optimize for Lottie export, add side colors, and map artwork to the Extrudalized shape's faces for enhanced visual impact.
The Artwork Mapping Dialog offers multiple mapping methods, including Corner Pin Mapping, Transform Effect Mapping, and Shape Layer Mapping. Each method offers distinct pros and cons, allowing you to choose the most suitable approach for your project.
Primitives: Discover basic and advanced shape creation, such as cubes, cylinders, stars, and diamonds.
Views: Apply preset "looks" to your Extrudalized layers, such as Translucency or Wireframe mode, adding depth to your designs.
Animation: Add animated loops to create spinning, rotating, or oscillating effects, enhancing the overall visual appeal.
Adjust extrusion depth, position, scale, rotation, and orbit control, bringing your designs to life with precision.
Fine-tune anchor points, wireframe modes, stroke edges, transparency, and color settings, adding visual richness to your creations.
