I realized I hadn't commented here yet, and since I just recommended this tutorial AGAIN, figured I should make a point of thanking you for this really great walkthrough. I agree that this isn't going to be replacing dedicated 3D workflows, but it certainly has its place. For the right looks, the flexibility of being able to do this directly in AE will absolutely outweigh the visual limits. Love that you outlined the process of importing a multi-piece model so it can actually be *animated* in AE. There are of course limits here, too, but for the kinds of things people will mostly be doing in this workflow, this is going to serve a lot of those needs well enough. Thanks, Eran!

Thanks Kyle, what an amazing feedback. Make sure to check the second part posted today for more deep diving into the new 3D tools. And there will be also part 3, but don't tell anyone. No one is here anyway, yet :-)

[@johndavidhoward]

Awesome, thanks a lot man!

[@lunchwithalens]

Thanks for such a detailed tutorial on the new capabilities of AE in 3D, and some great tips on the Substance products too!

[@SternFX]

My pleasure!

Great walkthrough. Thank you! I'm looking for a way to dynamically change colors/textures of an object inside AE. Can this be done, or am I still bound to Element3D for this? I need to be able to map text onto the object, preferably by mapping a comp onto a texture layer.

[@SternFX]

Thanks for the feedback! Replacing textures is not possible yet, but Adobe will continue developing this and I believe it's on their road map. Please submit your feedback in the beta forum

[@sergiomarchelli]

Nice one, I actually love Elementr 3D, but after Redshift, no way to use AE for 3d. BUT I like that you get the final look! While in 3d you render, composite and...sometimes the final look tweak is too much to handle...

[@SternFX]

Thanks for feedback, Highly appreciated

[@Xandercorp]

I know youre reading off something but... it's kinda fun to watch anyway :D

[@imranduran472]

Hi, Why I can't opening GLB objects in After Effects and beta? I'm using last versions and I was opening in Beta since 2 months ago. Please help me this about :(

[@SternFX]

It should work if you're on 24.1 or higher, if it doesn't please contact Adobe support

[@filmmodul5365]

When I set up a whole scene with different 3D objects and the environmental light, there are some shadows, but I don't know where they `re coming from. For instance I need a table to cast a shadow on the floor and the wall. It doesn't work, no matter how I set up the light. Is there any trick or something I missed?

[@SternFX]

Try a different hdr image as a source for the light and play with X & Y Rotation

[@m1khaild154]

tnx u! =) amazing im not understand why cinema4d dont reading glb. ) blender, AE, stager, dimension, spline3d - did. Cinema - NOOO! how i can imported my 3d scene created in stager to cinema or blender with lights/cameras and materials ?! ) i see Ae its posible but others - No. WHY? its so simple to doing great design... but we all have a dancing with it

[@SternFX]

Thanks You and me both. Hopefully it will resolve in the future

[@PragatheArtist]

when i export to after effects , it doesnt show the 3D model :( just the box with the parameters

[@SternFX]

Try to open a support call with Adobe.

[@user-ds4ep2op9u]

WTF???? (After Effects 无法继续: 高级3D plug-in generated an unexpected exception.)

[@SternFX]

Send adobe this feedback

[@user-ds4ep2op9u]

@@SternFX A buddy have sent the same problem to the adobe, i saw it. But they doesn't give any solution, damn....
