HOLY FUCKING SHIT, i mean, this is the type of info professional motion designers choose to keep to themselves, this kind of insanely helpful Ae content has been extinct for ages… How are so generous, man ❤

[@stephanzammit]

What a nice comment. Thank you so much, comments like this really motivate me to create more interesting content... Glad to be of help to the motion design community :)

[@luckybalotiya4993]

man, most of us seasoned editors already know most of the things in after effects from using expressions to making great motion design but damn, you are breaking 4th wall, we did our 3d work in tidious blender and may and you says that we can do all those things in after effect, without losing color science and software, these things can be done in after effects, no way, amazing. thank you

[@stephanzammit]

Wow, Thanks for your comment! :) Very glad I could help! :)

[@Ila_Aras]

tedious blender? could you elaborate?

[@luckybalotiya4993]

@@Ila_Aras blender is a 3d software, where we can make amazing 3d animation and which is simpler soltware and also it is free. but it is hard to learn.

I never knew you could create an animated background like this using fractal noise! amazing. subbed.

Since I got the new version of AE which supports Advanced 3D, your tutorials make me try something cooler than what I learned before. Thank you for those wonderful videos! Also, I was so lucky that I could learn how to use CC Lens effect in this video.

0:06 to achieve the translucency, can i use blend mode 🤔

[@stephanzammit]

yes, you can use something like an overlay blend mode or screen.

Wow, that was a super cool tutorial, a little fast in some parts (for me) for example, the way you created the beginning of the grid, but overall it was really good, thank you!

[@stephanzammit]

Thank you for your comment! Glad it was helpful! I also really appreciate the feedback :) I try to balance between showing everything to keeping the videos at a decent length. Its quite a challenge! Since there's so many things to show.

The most professional industry standard artists' secrets are revealed. I thought they used 3D programs like C4D and Blender. :D Awesome tutorial.

[@stephanzammit]

Thank you so much! :)

[@jhay_vine5083]

it's just a recent feature in after effects though. It came just recently. For years, we had to use Blender or Cinema 4d

[@ligomotion5778]

an impossible result!! Thank you very much, once again it makes you wonder how far human ingenuity can go in this program 🤩💫👏

[@stephanzammit]

2:34 In my pc I can't find advanced 3d option , there is only classic 3D and cinema 4D

[@stephanzammit]

Hi, Advanced 3D is available from After Effects 2024 onwards. If you have an earlier version, you can use Cinema 4D, it has similar features.

[@gutemakoru]

Amazing Tutorial Thank You if i could ask 1 question tho how did you make the shapes transparent

[@stephanzammit]

Thanks! Sure! Forgot to mention it in the video! Just lower the opacity value.. give it something like 75% opacity and you're done 🙂

[@Rey_nawaz]

This video is super helpful. Amazing.

[@stephanzammit]

I'm very glad this was of help 🙂 thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment. Much appreciated 😊

[@pinakkumthekar4965]

There is no option to enable Advanced 3D in my after effects. I can choose only Classic 3D or Cinema 4D. Is there any way I can get Advanced 3D

[@stephanzammit]

This option is only available from AE 2024. In that case you can choose Cinema 4D. It will give similar results 🙂

how did you make the objects blury transparent as we can see text behind? please respond.

[@conversationswithsu]

can you please show as in-depth tutorial of how you did the rotation in 9:25? :)

[@stephanzammit]

This is actually a simple set up, where all the discs are linked/ parented to a null layer that is positioned in the middle of the compositions. Then the Null Layer is simply rotated and it rotates all the discs with it.

[@conversationswithsu]

@@stephanzammit thank you! 🫶🏼

[@n7cromancyy]

i have AE 2024 and for some reason "advanced 3d" doesn't pop up when i go to switch between 3d rederers. help pleaseee 😭

[@stephanzammit]

Not sure what is the reason. Maybe you don’t have a supported GPU? You can still use the Cinema 4D option. It will give similar results

[@DeanWillpower]

Thank you so much for a great masterpiece. I'm still new to ae, I have a question, how then did you join the circles and animate them here 9:19

[@stephanzammit]

Hi, thank you for your comment :) Glad this was helpful! :) This is just a simple parenting to a null layer in the middle. Similar to what I have done at the start fo the video with the 2 circles, but in that case I linked all the circles with a null layer, then I just animate that null layer's rotation.

@@stephanzammit How you create that "glass" effect? :p

[@CalebDidWhat]

Is this result possible with image layers instead of shapes for example an Instagram logo?

[@stephanzammit]

Yes Definitely. In that case you wouldn't be able to extrude (turn 3d) the images. Unless you change them to shape layers and then extrude those. But the bending effect is still possible.
