00:00:01,260 --> 00:00:07,950

Guys and welcome to this new lecture in 3-D animation after effects if you want to learn more about



2

00:00:07,950 --> 00:00:08,460

3-D.



3

00:00:08,460 --> 00:00:14,920

In fact if you want to learn everything about 3-D I recommend that you take my course 3-D animation



4

00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,370

after effects is a very powerful cause.



5

00:00:17,550 --> 00:00:23,970

Well it goes beyond the motion graphics and you learn about the camera as lights and whatever is required



6

00:00:24,300 --> 00:00:28,050

to do great 3-D animation you know to the highest level.



7

00:00:28,170 --> 00:00:32,550

Now in this lecture we want to practice a bit and we want to learn new techniques so we'll be doing



8

00:00:32,550 --> 00:00:36,540

this animation where we train about the z space.



9

00:00:36,690 --> 00:00:42,200

Then we move on to do this animation and it's also about this space and about the wire rotation.



10

00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:49,380

Move on to see how we can work with the rotation to show text on the screen to pop it up and we have



11

00:00:49,380 --> 00:00:55,290

a special animation here to show you how we can use the motion path in 3D.



12

00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:56,260

Let's start.



13

00:00:56,290 --> 00:00:56,810

What do we do.



14

00:00:56,810 --> 00:01:02,150

I will open other composition where I already laid out the text and the graphic if any.



15

00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,680

So we just focus on the animation itself.



16

00:01:05,700 --> 00:01:07,230

Let's open this composition.



17

00:01:07,230 --> 00:01:09,350

For example we close the demo.



18

00:01:09,660 --> 00:01:16,480

I'll create an object to drive all the animation new null objects so the null object is in the middle.



19

00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,230

And of course everything else is centered in the middle except a motion graphic.



20

00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:27,680

Let's put everything in 3D and select all the layers and link them or pan them to them here.



21

00:01:27,900 --> 00:01:29,370

Now they're all printed.



22

00:01:29,380 --> 00:01:35,610

I will open the rotation in the not so I want to focus on the X rotation here.



23

00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:42,540

I will go to one second and I keyframe the exaltation on don't come back to the beginning and move the



24

00:01:42,540 --> 00:01:51,570

left as you notice how that all moving I will put it at 90 degrees or minus 90 and they are almost all



25

00:01:51,660 --> 00:01:55,520

parallel in a single plan not as what I was talking about multiplying.



26

00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:02,090

You take that in the because of three but here you have all of them in a single Z plan.



27

00:02:02,090 --> 00:02:05,880

That's a great example you will learn also about multiplying.



28

00:02:06,140 --> 00:02:09,830

Now if I run the animation it's cool but it's not so interesting.



29

00:02:09,830 --> 00:02:10,820

OK.



30

00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:17,840

Everything is rotating in 3D on the y axis but it's not so interesting let's make it more interesting



31

00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:18,950

at least that's right.



32

00:02:19,340 --> 00:02:24,990

So let's select our leaders and open the position only the position and move it up we see all of them.



33

00:02:25,230 --> 00:02:27,490

I'm going to take motion graphic to start with.



34

00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:31,270

Let's put it on top and move it in the space.



35

00:02:31,340 --> 00:02:35,010

If I move it into the space it will be no more in the same plan.



36

00:02:35,090 --> 00:02:38,760

It will be moving up or towards the cameraman It's staggering.



37

00:02:39,110 --> 00:02:44,850

And I will take the next layer and move it also up.



38

00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,670

Maybe not too much but a big difference.



39

00:02:47,930 --> 00:02:49,330

I would take the Shepler.



40

00:02:49,330 --> 00:02:50,900

This one is the green one.



41

00:02:50,930 --> 00:02:55,200

I will also move it up a bit to see how it's happening.



42

00:02:55,220 --> 00:02:57,320

The last layer I will leave it to zero.



43

00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,760

So not just everything is forward towards the camera except the last layer.



44

00:03:01,970 --> 00:03:04,080

Let's see how is our animation now.



45

00:03:04,190 --> 00:03:06,530

Now we notice the animation is totally different.



46

00:03:06,530 --> 00:03:15,360

Let's watch it and it gives you this cool animation where everything is coming into 3D.



47

00:03:15,380 --> 00:03:22,280

This is playing with the Zed barometer of the position and it's very important that you learn this one



48

00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,810

is very important that you practice on this.



49

00:03:24,830 --> 00:03:31,280

So what am I done here not is that in the beginning everything was in the same plan and move them into



50

00:03:31,310 --> 00:03:33,940

different plans and got another animation.



51

00:03:33,950 --> 00:03:36,960

Of course you can come and animate even more here.



52

00:03:37,220 --> 00:03:43,370

This is the major lesson here is to put everything in a multiple plan and try to not run an mission



53

00:03:43,390 --> 00:03:46,310

with one coordinate in the rotation.



54

00:03:46,340 --> 00:03:48,960

And here you are you have something really quite good.



55

00:03:49,010 --> 00:03:56,480

Of course you can come to the new layer now and give it the easy is the usual ones a safe nine and play



56

00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,960

with the easy is to get some wonderful admission let me stop it I don't like it running.



57

00:04:01,190 --> 00:04:07,410

So we can do something like this and maybe just like this it will look nice.



58

00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,000

Yes fine.



59

00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,670

Let's make it longer or so.



60

00:04:12,540 --> 00:04:13,390

Cool yeah.



61

00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:14,900

No problem here.



62

00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:23,090

So this is an animation of course to ensure that the layers are moving or they are not seen what you



63

00:04:23,090 --> 00:04:27,370

can do is just dig them and push them a bit just a bit.



64

00:04:27,410 --> 00:04:34,550

So they start rotating before they are seen in the army maybe it has war or you need more fun but the



65

00:04:34,550 --> 00:04:36,080

basic is there's that plan.



66

00:04:36,260 --> 00:04:38,390

Let's open the composition 7.



67

00:04:38,510 --> 00:04:43,200

So we want to animate motion and graphics the two words coming from the line here.



68

00:04:43,370 --> 00:04:47,840

You can draw the line but I will not spend time drawing the line let's keep it there and learn just



69

00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:48,950

about reading.



70

00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:50,840

I will up graphic rotation.



71

00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:55,390

First of all I put everything in the all of them.



72

00:04:55,530 --> 00:05:01,540

So I won't use here one rotation which is the rotating on the x axis and taking just behind the line



73

00:05:01,710 --> 00:05:02,960

it becomes invisible.



74

00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,380

I could have drawn the line before of course I would take motion.



75

00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,720

Open its rotation and also use the x to rotate.



76

00:05:10,740 --> 00:05:11,870

But we wrote it backwards.



77

00:05:11,860 --> 00:05:13,890

Now look at the other direction.



78

00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:20,470

We can give them both x rotation here and then go to one and return it to zero.



79

00:05:23,890 --> 00:05:32,570

And you have a nice animation here you are it's rendering now and now is playing in real time.



80

00:05:32,650 --> 00:05:33,620

Let's look at it.



81

00:05:33,790 --> 00:05:38,490

They stick all the keyframes Let's F 9 go to the graph.



82

00:05:38,650 --> 00:05:44,080

And of course now you want to play with them here so you have something pretty nice as go for speedy



83

00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:53,100

this time in the middle of the day they just jump in as they select everything and look at it go up.



84

00:05:53,190 --> 00:05:54,390

OK this is the empty motion.



85

00:05:54,390 --> 00:05:56,750

Let's make an exit marshal what can we do here.



86

00:05:58,910 --> 00:06:00,850

I will say create a null object.



87

00:06:00,860 --> 00:06:07,560

I will go to lay a new null object take all of them and we link them to the noun.



88

00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,140

Of course we want to make them also 3D.



89

00:06:11,150 --> 00:06:12,680

Let's open the null object.



90

00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,300

Let's open its position on it.



91

00:06:14,300 --> 00:06:15,490

That will be enough.



92

00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,160

Come after it has settled let's say from here.



93

00:06:18,410 --> 00:06:25,820

Keyframe the position and go further and just take the Zed press shift and make this that big as big



94

00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,110

as possible but not beyond the comment I here.



95

00:06:29,390 --> 00:06:30,070

OK.



96

00:06:30,370 --> 00:06:32,750

Let's you know let's look at our animation.



97

00:06:33,140 --> 00:06:34,610

They rotate.



98

00:06:34,710 --> 00:06:37,690

They stay and they open and you have a new background.



99

00:06:37,730 --> 00:06:38,840

Let's make it longer.



100

00:06:41,470 --> 00:06:42,570

And play again.



101

00:06:44,510 --> 00:06:51,070

So easy you have created a new background just by moving the Zad in the non-Labor here.



102

00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:57,920

So I'm using a lot of the manlier advises that using it only people who really want to do real motion



103

00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:03,350

graphics will start getting started in the null object and slowly slowly it will be you'll become very



104

00:07:03,350 --> 00:07:04,250

familiar with it.



105

00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:10,340

You really do great animations because you can come over here and give it a Niflheim and come to the



106

00:07:10,340 --> 00:07:13,160

graph and decide exactly how you want to do it.



107

00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:18,280

Maybe you start very slowly and make it longer in time if you like.



108

00:07:18,410 --> 00:07:20,340

And then it stops altogether.



109

00:07:20,450 --> 00:07:24,220

Let's see here.



110

00:07:24,420 --> 00:07:25,240

Fantastic.



111

00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,550

Let's open non-competition six.



112

00:07:27,940 --> 00:07:28,260

OK.



113

00:07:28,260 --> 00:07:30,430

Here we have the same kind of animation.



114

00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,940

Hopefully there will be no null object.



115

00:07:33,150 --> 00:07:35,370

Let's open the three layers.



116

00:07:35,370 --> 00:07:37,500

First of all make everything 3-D.



117

00:07:37,770 --> 00:07:43,350

You have the stroke here or the line we don't have to animated in 3-D we can use just the green pass



118

00:07:43,350 --> 00:07:44,340

to open it.



119

00:07:44,370 --> 00:07:53,010

For example if you come to the Trimm path you'll see three empires and you go keyframe at 100 percent



120

00:07:53,490 --> 00:07:55,070

then move a bit just a bit.



121

00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:56,680

You know it doesn't really matter.



122

00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:01,630

Make it at 0 just to make it complete the mission and you just opens.



123

00:08:01,670 --> 00:08:05,330

OK we need that at the beginning at 100 percent.



124

00:08:05,730 --> 00:08:10,140

So when it opens we want to start and we made the deck less safe from here.



125

00:08:10,180 --> 00:08:18,120

I will open the three decks I will open now the rotation again and I want to have only the wire rotation.



126

00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,530

So what I will do will keyframe the wide rotation.



127

00:08:20,530 --> 00:08:24,060

Select all the layers and press you again.



128

00:08:24,180 --> 00:08:26,690

And then I will have only the wire that you need.



129

00:08:26,740 --> 00:08:29,520

I can work I don't need all the other primitives.



130

00:08:29,610 --> 00:08:37,330

So starting from here we select the three for example that could be cool and move them backward.



131

00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:42,620

Now there is something I didn't explain sorry for that is where I put the anchor point.



132

00:08:42,630 --> 00:08:49,050

If you zoom in I put the ankle bone just on the line here and also here move the anchor point on the



133

00:08:49,050 --> 00:08:51,510

line and move the anchor point on the line.



134

00:08:51,510 --> 00:08:54,070

This is why they can hide behind the line.



135

00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:55,550

So I will move them.



136

00:08:55,650 --> 00:09:00,740

I would say the three of them and move them to hide behind the line.



137

00:09:01,130 --> 00:09:03,700

Again will render very nicely by the way.



138

00:09:03,700 --> 00:09:09,820

Of course if you open the line first so the line comes up then I want to come to one second for example



139

00:09:10,270 --> 00:09:12,450

and return them to zero.



140

00:09:13,140 --> 00:09:14,170

That is zero.



141

00:09:14,170 --> 00:09:18,380

I'm using tab here to move in between the values.



142

00:09:18,410 --> 00:09:26,140

So this is our dimension are pretty simple but quite similarly what I will do just before it ends I



143

00:09:26,140 --> 00:09:29,140

would come over here and just keyframe again.



144

00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,430

So I have a new set of keyframes what I will do.



145

00:09:31,420 --> 00:09:38,080

I will move them forward a bit and I say to add or plus something like this.



146

00:09:38,260 --> 00:09:41,410

Yep just positive.



147

00:09:41,410 --> 00:09:42,730

Now of this was going to happen.



148

00:09:42,730 --> 00:09:46,030

It's like kind of hammered in something called.



149

00:09:46,150 --> 00:09:52,200

Of course you can select all the keyframes is in them and go play with a glove to make it more interesting.



150

00:09:52,210 --> 00:09:57,220

Now not this which we have done here let's stop the animation we have taken earlier we put the anchor



151

00:09:57,220 --> 00:10:03,170

point on the line or you know on the side and we did the Y rotation.



152

00:10:03,190 --> 00:10:04,870

Let's go to come five.



153

00:10:04,870 --> 00:10:11,080

Now in this animation we want to bring the text from behind the camera to the front and put it on the



154

00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,700

Zed plan at zero.



155

00:10:12,700 --> 00:10:13,560

How would we do that.



156

00:10:13,570 --> 00:10:16,120

Let's come to one second for example.



157

00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:23,350

Select all our players and press B for position and keyframe the position here go back to the beginning



158

00:10:23,970 --> 00:10:26,440

take the Zad and black it out for all of them.



159

00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:33,970

You notice what's happening if I press shift it's going to come out speedier.



160

00:10:34,150 --> 00:10:35,320

That will be enough.



161

00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,840

Here let's select and run Ihram preview here.



162

00:10:39,930 --> 00:10:41,840

I will just make it a bit bigger.



163

00:10:42,340 --> 00:10:44,970

And we see our animation how it's happening.



164

00:10:44,970 --> 00:10:49,020

They come from behind the camera and get into the Z at 0.



165

00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,120

That's pretty interesting.



166

00:10:50,140 --> 00:10:53,780

And you can change the motion here the way they are settling in.



167

00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:58,540

Let's go to the beginning was all of them and we can see the motion path.



168

00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:06,300

Now we'll choose one at a time of course with the graphics and we zoom in to see the motion graph and



169

00:11:06,300 --> 00:11:13,050

we can just you know stretch it any way you want and it will be quite amusing how they are going to



170

00:11:13,050 --> 00:11:14,650

come in.



171

00:11:14,730 --> 00:11:21,970

Of course you learn just to make sure that everything is settling down in a way that is not you know



172

00:11:22,020 --> 00:11:24,340

abnormal or they're typing on each other.



173

00:11:24,510 --> 00:11:27,370

Let's look at our animation now we play.



174

00:11:27,900 --> 00:11:32,520

And they're coming but at least de-select played the game here.



175

00:11:32,670 --> 00:11:37,860

So this is about does that this about how to do animation in 3-D.



176

00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:43,440

And there is a lot of training and a lot of work for you here to start doing animations.



177

00:11:43,470 --> 00:11:48,780

Please go to after effects now if you're not there already and try to set the text on the screen bring



178

00:11:48,780 --> 00:11:49,730

it from very far.



179

00:11:49,740 --> 00:11:53,170

I've seen how we worked on the Zad and then changed the motion.



180

00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:58,180

So you can get certain animations where the characters are setting in a different way.



181

00:11:58,320 --> 00:11:59,690

See you in the next lecture.
