How to Make Rotating Cylinder Text Around Object in After Effects

[@JuhoSprite]

Wow that is fantastic. I didnt know about the outside inside thing, I did this like a few days ago watching a tutorial, and they just made a basic mask which was super limiting. This is so much better

[@PANTERvision]

Thanks mate! Glad it helped

[@Kazumo]

Amazing stuff. Man, your whole channel is a gem. Thank you so much for all the free and super good tutorials you've put out.

[@PANTERvision]

Thanks for your kind words, you're welcome:D

You're welcome!

Hi would you be able to drop that illustrator template for the text you made. I like the style but have no idea how to create something that nice

[@sahilbhagat181]

Amazing, Thanks a lot. Just one suggestion: Text shadow on the hand could have made it killer :)

[@PANTERvision]

Yes that's for sure:D You're welcome!

[@sayisanthosh]

Crisp and crazyy

This same effect with chrome 3D text. In blender or create it right here.

Super! Is it possible to create a shadow of the text reflecting on the hand?... or possible only in 3D?

[@PANTERvision]

I was also thinking about that but eventually didn't do it. You create a new copy of the PNG hand and a new copy of the top text, add drop shadow on the text and then track matte the the hand png with the text so the shadow is only visible on the hand and then bring the shadow layer under the text layer. It's a bit hard to imagine and explain but it's something in that direction.

Amazing!!!

[@PANTERvision]

Thank you!

I am following along step by step, but I don't get the same outcome. For example, I can't scale items to fit despite me hitting the S for scale. It only zooms in. And I can't add the create vector to the text because it's greyed out. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. :(

[@ZinVisual]

so in illustrator you export it as a PNG and then bring it back in and then image trace it make sure there no background color or its not going to come out right

[@realjeezus]

how can we make it spin slower

[@PANTERvision]

You can make the composition longer. Ex if you make it 10 sec, it spins slower. At 3 sec it spins fast

[@prithvirajsinghdeora2614]

can you tell me dimensions of artboard in 0:28 ?

[@PANTERvision]

I have no idea on that one in Illustrator

[@prithvirajsinghdeora2614]

@@PANTERvision ok 😭

[@PANTERvision]

@@prithvirajsinghdeora2614 But it doesn't matter you can stretch it and resize in Ae because from default it won't look good on cylinder anyway and it needs adjustments there

[@Chaky_Editss]

when I add my text from illustrator and click on "create outline" My text dissapears but my line is visible . Do you have any solutions?

[@PANTERvision]

Text is black on black background probably. Try to recolor the fill of the text to white

[@Chaky_Editss]

@@PANTERvision I already did that but that isn't it. I can only select the shapes and not the text from the illustrator file.

[@chichi5985]

I am having the same problem. And when I make the text white it doesn’t help

[@angeliavaldez7884]

Hello, when I try to add the document with the logo, the backroud won't disappear. What do u recommend?

[@PANTERvision]

You probably have something as a background and you need to remove it
