This is the final result we'll create: footage of a lake tilted in 3D space, a title floating closer to the camera and then rotating, and a floor stretching underneath. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe After Effects series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Module 10 takes us into 3D space. Every layer in After Effects can be made 3D, giving it depth and allowing it to be rotated in any direction. In this episode, we'll learn the basics.
Create a new composition named 'ruang 3' with a dark background. Import the cloudy lake footage to the timeline, reduce the scale to 55%, then create 3D text in the center of the screen.
In the switches column, there's a cube-shaped switch, which is the 3D switch for the layer. Click that switch on the footage and the text. Open the transform properties. Position now has three numbers. X, Y, and Z. Orientation and X rotation, Y rotation, and Z rotation also appear.
Set the Y rotation of the footage to 35 degrees. The footage tilts like a board being rotated away. Then change the Z position of the text to -600. A negative Z value means it's closer to the camera, so the text appears larger and floats in front of the footage. Create a blue-gray solid named 'lantai' with dimensions 2400x2400, make it 3D, then set the X rotation to 90 degrees.
The solid flattens into a flat plane. Lower the Y position to 860 so it becomes the floor.
Split the bottom of the viewer, open the 3D menu in the view. Select 'top' to view from above, without layer stacking along the Z-axis. Select 'left' to view from the side, then custom view 1 for a diagonal angle. Return to the active camera to view the rendered result.
In the text, create a keyframe for Y rotation at 0 degrees at second 0 and 360 degrees at second 4. Rotate the preview, the title spins fully within the space, showing that the text is just a thin plane in the 3D world.
Done. We have enabled the 3D switch, using the Z-axis, orientation, and X, Y, Z rotation, created a floor from a solid, viewed the scene from various 3D views, and animated the rotation. In the next episode, we will add a camera. Need a promotional video, logo animation, motion graphics for social media, or visual effects for a short film?
