There is a special effect Motion Tile that does the clouds moving on the planet. Use this FX for more realistic vision

Rotation looks strange, because there is tilt on Z axis, but rotation on Y axis is still vertical instead of following the tilt of globe. If you change the rotation order from XYZ to ZYX, it will tilt the globe and the Y rotational axis to look correct.

[@user-jf3jy5zc5i]

Thank you very much!

Hi im very new to after effects just got it yesteday and im struggling with the pen and mask section. I have drawn the thing with the pen but i dont know how to make the day earth and night earth both show up. Any help would be very appreciated im desperate

[@GiusneyGiuliaRosati]

Thanks for tutorial ^^

[@haroonislam172]

This was great!

[@FlatPackFX]

So glad you liked it Haroon Islam

[@nathanbgerman]

Awesome tutorial! Very helpful. How hard would it be to do a full rotation of the Earth like this? The biggest area I'm struggling with this is the lighting. Since we're working with a 2D image, it doesn't wrap around.

[@FlatPackFX]

Hi Nathan, yes your right due to the fact it’s a 2d map it makes it slightly harder. One option is to have your light transition timed so it moves over the join while it’s on the other side of the earth. It can all be done but you need to use feathering and have a good idea of what you want to do before you start. Thanks for the comment!

[@omarashraf2057]

Hi. Thank you for your tutorial. I have a question - how do I create a shadow that stays in place while the earth loops 360 degrees? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[@blaylock1978]

This is great! Thanks.

[@FlatPackFX]

Thanks mate!

[@Soloudeus]

This was a good try but the night map is the wrong size than the day texture map. Not possible to achieve desired effect from this tutorial.

[@federicomarini2261]

but to rotate the earth 360 degrees and the night effect that follows it? that is, if I wanted to do it in a 360 ° loop
Thanks so much

[@HansMagnusNedreberg]

Is there a way to adjust the sadhowing/night as the earth orbits around the sun I 3D space? Or would that just require more keyframing of the night layer mask?

[@FlatPackFX]

Yes just more key framing. A newer way of doing this is to use the free orb plugin, it gives you more control over creating lighting effects. I have a video on how to do this under my Star Wars series. It’s the one where I show you how to create the planet 🌎

[@mizzcrazygal]

i wanna make a planet like this but then add it to a street video like i seen on instagram. do u know how to do this?

[@tumaysonmez2196]

You brought the apocalypse by giving birth to the sun from the west. Bravo.

[@an5imeQ]

Красавчик! Очень интересный урок, всё достаточно доходчиво объяснил! Лайк!

@@eatingwithhands9078 when u press the stopwatch and change the value , a keyframe is automatically added to that blue thingy position

[@rlkku576]

there is no link to the clouds photo

[@ranges_ae2646]

How to add bump????

[@nrjmedia1447]

Awesome thanks very much! I am trying to make it do a 360 however I am getting a bit stuck! Once the world revolves around, the "night" Layer has a definite cut off, any tips? Almost as if it has hit the end of the image.

[@FlatPackFX]

Hey there are limitations with this type of animation, try looking at my Star Wars planet tutorial as I use “Orb” it will get around a lot of the issues with this. Hope that helps

[@mataiand]

hey Flat Pack FX
this is a great tutorial, exactly what I needed, however the export video is kinda sluggish, not smooth at all
I tried all settings from 25fps all the way up to 100fps (zooming and scale makes it worst)
Any tip or suggestion?

[@FlatPackFX]

Hi mataiand, it’s a tricky one could be a number of things. Try playing back in a different video player like VLC or try exporting in a different codec. It could also be your resolution try dropping that down. A good test is to import the exported file into a video editor and test playback if it’s still jittery try a different codec. Hope that helps!

[@yonyon1236]

Is there a way to make the atmosphere clouds move?

[@DannyshRosli]

add in another cc sphere of the clouds only , and screen or add on top of it . then rotate it . tips : add turbulence displace for realism .

[@raymondprod]

[@katarinaveljovic1847]

Are this images from the link free to use?

[@webstercat]

Just like nasa..

[@Jack-jg9mu]

Hi, can anyone help: When I draw the curve using the pen, it automatically adds a red fill. I can change the colour of this but there is no option for no fill. How did you manage to do this? (I've got very little experience in after effects!!) Thanks :)

[@FlatPackFX]

Make sure you select the layer first in the time line then draw a mask. Otherwise you will draw a solid.

[@PichuTheCheerio]

Nasa that has a very big budget takes such along time to make a realistic earth.
Yet an kid can make one with a seven day free trial in under a day.

[@LuiwiOficial]

2 images are not working

[@ethicalrevolution3294]

Search the image name at the end of the links on Google images.

[@sovietobject9866]

Круто. Спасибо. Очень выручил!!!

and this is a regular guy with hardware and software anyone can buy.
just imagine what NASA can do with his budget...

[@FF-rc2bz]

Build Spaceships!

[@Pheonix8877]

Florian Falk or keep all the money that you say you need for building “space ships” and spend a small fraction on Hollywood effects, and boom your rich. Even if space were real they would do this

[@dominicmcmahon4798]

Line their pockets with trillions of dollars and make space in a Hollywood basement. That's what they've done currently.
