00:00:07,500 --> 00:00:11,670
Guys and welcome to the second part of the 3D project the cube.

2
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,280
Now if for some reason in the previous lecture you managed to create the cube or you would like to have

3
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,670
the same exact cube that I'm working on here.

4
00:00:20,850 --> 00:00:27,770
You can open the project file through the project the cube start you should be able to download it in

5
00:00:27,770 --> 00:00:29,430
the beginning of this section.

6
00:00:30,730 --> 00:00:33,760
Now here in addition we have a placeholder.

7
00:00:33,940 --> 00:00:39,050
Now we want to place our cube in the main composition that will become our video later on.

8
00:00:40,030 --> 00:00:42,940
So I would create in normal composition normal size.

9
00:00:42,940 --> 00:00:49,390
Of course it's going to be 12 80 by 720 frame rate 30 and 30 seconds.

10
00:00:49,390 --> 00:00:54,130
I would call it cube animation and then click OK.

11
00:00:55,820 --> 00:00:59,740
I would take the 3D cube and wrap it inside the opposition.

12
00:00:59,750 --> 00:01:02,400
Now I have two views here which I don't need any more.

13
00:01:02,420 --> 00:01:07,450
I would close and go to one view and go to fit 100 percent.

14
00:01:07,450 --> 00:01:13,180
The shortcut is out and forward slash or option a slash on the map.

15
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,670
We put the cube in 3D and you know this is very big.

16
00:01:16,730 --> 00:01:24,560
I press S and scale it down to for example 30 percent and open rotation.

17
00:01:24,730 --> 00:01:32,560
If I rotate around the y axis not this is totally flat it is flat because this is a composition that

18
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,510
is not in 3D yet to make a cup in 3D.

19
00:01:36,580 --> 00:01:44,350
And to bring in all the layers and to view all the 3-D work that you have done you come to the switch

20
00:01:44,350 --> 00:01:48,990
over here which is for complete collapse transformations.

21
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,210
You switch it on and here you are.

22
00:01:51,220 --> 00:01:53,800
If you're a state it is in 3D.

23
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:58,440
Notice also that the entire point is totally in the middle of the cube.

24
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,700
This did not happen by accident.

25
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,470
Remember in the 3D cube one the way I created the cube.

26
00:02:05,620 --> 00:02:12,880
The front side is in front by 400 and the backside is in the back by 500 or so.

27
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:13,980
Same for the sides.

28
00:02:13,990 --> 00:02:17,750
I did not move them you know they're halfway in halfway out.

29
00:02:17,870 --> 00:02:23,030
If you're not as this is the flat area over here and the anchor point was in the middle here the back

30
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,210
is 500 from the anchor point.

31
00:02:26,210 --> 00:02:31,100
So actually if you can imagine that the flat composition is in the middle of the cube.

32
00:02:31,370 --> 00:02:37,470
Hence when you come and put it in 3D the anchor points will be totally in the middle of the cube.

33
00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:44,240
This is a concept that somehow is confusing try to create some other shapes 3-D and then bring them

34
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,900
in and try always to get the point in their midst.

35
00:02:48,100 --> 00:02:51,670
I would be quite good now that you have a cube here.

36
00:02:51,670 --> 00:02:53,240
Let's create some background.

37
00:02:53,420 --> 00:02:59,950
I'll create a background in a different way this time I would right click go to new and it is already

38
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:07,570
there and make it 100 percent white then I would go to ship to to the deep ship tool and then double

39
00:03:07,570 --> 00:03:10,700
click it to create a mask in the mask.

40
00:03:10,750 --> 00:03:17,380
I will feather it up as much as you like because it is very ugly.

41
00:03:17,410 --> 00:03:22,930
So I would take the lead put it under to make it more beautiful and even to have more control.

42
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,490
I would create another solid layer.

43
00:03:25,930 --> 00:03:31,390
Also 100 percent white can choose another color and just drop it behind.

44
00:03:31,610 --> 00:03:38,270
Then come to the second solid layer Presti for a pastie reduce the body as much as you like and not

45
00:03:38,270 --> 00:03:41,440
as the effect is pretty nice effect here.

46
00:03:41,740 --> 00:03:46,070
So I'm trying to create an environment where I think it's beautiful to work with the cube.

47
00:03:46,390 --> 00:03:48,700
So this background is pretty cool for now.

48
00:03:48,700 --> 00:03:55,710
You can create any other kind of background if you like let's reduce the size of the cube to 20 percent

49
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,440
so we can animate.

50
00:03:57,750 --> 00:03:59,750
And there are couple of ways to animate it.

51
00:03:59,790 --> 00:04:06,570
You can get a null and start an immediate and then you can attach other cubes to the that I would do

52
00:04:06,570 --> 00:04:07,420
that for now.

53
00:04:08,140 --> 00:04:11,210
I would right click new and not object.

54
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:21,930
I would be named the object CUPE control of put it in 3D and pick up this little cube to the cube control.

55
00:04:22,150 --> 00:04:28,360
Now I will open the position and the rotation comes to four seconds we're going to make it long so we

56
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,380
can work slowly.

57
00:04:29,380 --> 00:04:36,300
Then we reduce the time out from the position x and y and Zed rotation.

58
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:43,770
This is the final stage to the beginning here and simply use the position just take it backward.

59
00:04:44,930 --> 00:04:46,570
And then move it to the side.

60
00:04:48,290 --> 00:04:50,250
You notice this is a busy path.

61
00:04:50,310 --> 00:04:53,740
I would start you know playing with the busy path.

62
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,640
So like this keyframe and try to catch the busy path.

63
00:04:57,660 --> 00:05:07,460
Now notice what happens the now here or the handle is just behind the x axis and it rotated a bit somehow

64
00:05:07,550 --> 00:05:11,030
to be able to get it let's do like this and come back selected.

65
00:05:11,030 --> 00:05:12,430
Now I can catch it.

66
00:05:12,470 --> 00:05:17,730
I will use the selection tool and just do I'll draw a path here.

67
00:05:17,990 --> 00:05:24,290
Zoom out something like this something beautiful like this of course guys feel free to draw any kind

68
00:05:24,830 --> 00:05:29,530
but make sure that you are not animating the cube you're animating the control.

69
00:05:29,810 --> 00:05:36,190
Now let's play the rotation of just give it some rotation here some rotation here and some rotation

70
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,540
you can play but it will give you a nice animation.

71
00:05:39,540 --> 00:05:42,370
Notice what's happening Vrais.

72
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,480
Could the zoom at 100 percent play again.

73
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:47,460
Not at all.

74
00:05:47,530 --> 00:05:48,660
It's working.

75
00:05:49,090 --> 00:05:54,160
And as I said as I have a problem here guys I don't know which one is the front side here.

76
00:05:54,190 --> 00:05:55,670
It's not possible to guess.

77
00:05:55,900 --> 00:06:00,790
So I'm going to go to the cube click and this is different but I don't want this front.

78
00:06:00,790 --> 00:06:02,140
I want to put the placeholder.

79
00:06:02,140 --> 00:06:03,170
I like this one.

80
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:11,520
This click and drag and drop it over here our right click and go to transform and fit to come up of

81
00:06:11,570 --> 00:06:11,870
course.

82
00:06:11,890 --> 00:06:19,480
I need to put it in 3D but I need to blink it in front so I press position and just grab through.

83
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:20,020
OK.

84
00:06:20,020 --> 00:06:21,680
We need negative values.

85
00:06:21,970 --> 00:06:27,280
Of course I'm gonna put it at minus 500 and then take the front.

86
00:06:27,280 --> 00:06:29,300
Put it on top.

87
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:34,720
Now you can pick them and they will come to the front and remove the field.

88
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:40,000
I can almost feel Let's go to Cuba animation.

89
00:06:40,020 --> 00:06:41,270
They do a good job.

90
00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:42,860
Well actually I don't know.

91
00:06:42,990 --> 00:06:43,850
Let me see.

92
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:48,120
So I would start rotating here to get the front one in front.

93
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:49,580
I don't think so much.

94
00:06:49,860 --> 00:06:51,090
Let's go the other way.

95
00:06:51,090 --> 00:06:51,530
OK.

96
00:06:51,540 --> 00:06:53,560
That is working now.

97
00:06:55,510 --> 00:06:57,240
So we are just over here.

98
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:58,890
Let's see our animation.

99
00:06:58,900 --> 00:07:00,540
Is it that beautiful animation.

100
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:06,290
Well it's not but it's pretty random by the way but it's doing the job for now.

101
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:12,640
I would remove the cube controller I don't like to see it then stop at around 5 seconds.

102
00:07:12,710 --> 00:07:14,150
That's the space bar.

103
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,800
And this is your first animation.

104
00:07:17,020 --> 00:07:18,160
It's a bit on them.

105
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:19,150
No problem.

106
00:07:19,150 --> 00:07:24,180
You can come and work on the motion path of the cube controller.

107
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:32,600
And of course you will want to select all your keyframes best if nightfall is select position.

108
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:38,600
Go to the graph editor and just make it just like this something just simple like this.

109
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:43,580
So it takes more time to set it over here on the AS IF.

110
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:44,910
Not bad.

111
00:07:44,910 --> 00:07:45,720
Pretty cool.

112
00:07:45,980 --> 00:07:47,110
Thank you very much guys.

113
00:07:47,180 --> 00:07:52,010
And in the next hour we are going to add more cubes and see exactly how to work with this.
