#aftereffects #3Dintro #aftereffectstutorial
There are several ways to create 3D Metal Text inside After Effects. Some require plugins, some don't
However, most of them require a bit of time to set everything up, like creating the Extrusion, Adding the Texture, adding lights, reflections, etc., etc.,
In this video, we will create a very quick but convincing 3D metal text in 3 minutes without using any plugins.
This technique is useful especially when you are in a really tight schedule..
Expression to Link the CC Radial Blur Effect to a Null to create the fake 3DExtrusion:
Alt Click the CC radial blur center parameter and write the expression
thisComp.layer("Null").toComp([0,0,0]);
Make sure you replace the "Null" in the above expression with the name of your Null Object
You can use this expression whenever you want to drive/link a 2D value with a 3D value/3D Null
