@Justin Odisho Could you please tell me how to achieve this effect in AE CC 2015 ? I enjoy the aesthetic very much and would like to know any other simple way I could recreate this (especially in ae 2015). It would mean the world if you could respond ! Thank You SooOOooOOoo much in advance.
yo, where i can find the video are you talking about at the end of this video, the one with AE logo rotating at the end... I need that tutoria.. thank you
Have been watching many totorial videos over the last month, absolutely loved this one. Explained better than anyone, also the zooming in showing what buttons you used etc was very helpful for a beginner. Thank you
Justin Odisho do you offer classes? Have an idea I’m trying to bring to life but can’t figure it out. Wounded fireman and having to venture into a desk top career
If you want motion blur since the light prevents this, after making the logo, create a new composition, put the logo composition into it then apply force motion blur effect. You're welcome :)
Awesome, I was actually wondering the fastest way to do this. It's even less complicated than Photoshop's 3D features. I feel like After Effects in general can be intimidating at first but once you get a feel for moving around between elements and their properties as well as how the whole composition system works, it gets easier. I would dynamic-link from Premiere more often if doing so didn't affect the entire source video and not just what I clipped. If there's a way around that or if I'm doing it wrong I'm all ears.
A bit difficult to digest all at once, but I managed through, and it worked! Now I'm hoping to figure out how to 3D-spin an object that has compound paths. (I brought the Ai / PNG file in just fine, but it separates out the paths for every individual element, even though I've created a compound path before importing...)
Hey Justin, thanks for this tutorial, it's very useful. At the end you mention another video where you do more complicated breakdown of 3d, but I can't find it on your channel. Have you made part 2 yet and if so can you send me the link? Much appreciated.
Ah he made that look so so simple! I don't think that could have gone any worse. Every action I followed seems to cause a different effect than he was getting. Back to the drawing board! Thanks for vid anyway! 😀
Good tutorial. Ir works. Thank You! As extra... could You show how to deal with masks on letters with wholes (like a,b d e.t.c)? After Auto-trace... on png file with text, mask is created for each letter and for each whole in letter, but wholes are not transparent. Will highly appreciate, because can't find salvation on TH-cam.
So I've followed these instructions..and when I create a logo with a letter that has a hole in it (i.e. a P or a O) the hold is not knocked out and the letter is solid. In order to extrude, I remove the fill and add a stroke with that color on that path. I also place the original logo on top. It's a work around..but the back of the logo when I spin it shows the stoke with the logo in front of the stroke...any way to do this with letters that have "holes" in them? Thanks for the tutotial BTW...good stuff..
Sick man! Can't wait to create a project and try it out! The only thing I've really managed to do in AE is create camera raw sequences for hyper lapses. Looking forward to diving into some more advanced motion graphics.
If u auto traced and got 2 or more masks and when you tried to color it wouldn't work right click on the mask and click the inverted option to get your actual object to be colored in ♥
this was a huge help to me...I had no freaking idea you could just click on the screen and get it to playback at the proper speed...I was getting ready to spend like 4k on a new puter LOL. oy but I have one question, and this may be stupid but when I do the rotation the object almost orbits rather than spinning in place...like on the Y axis if that makes sense? How do I get it to stay in the same spot?
when I auto trace it gives me a TON of mask paths, I assume I have to do the same "create shape, copy path" for each mask path? Is there an easy way to do it to all the mask paths at once?
Yea my logo has way too make masks. This didn’t work for me. I couldn’t figure out how to paste all the mask setting onto the shape layer. It just didn’t work for me.
Hey Justin, tried it out and worked really good. Is it possible to use picture graphics as well? I Tried it out but i couldn't extrude them. I realized you can build up the shapes to use graphics but when it comes to more complicated ones its not working anymore. any idea?
looks like this would've been great! for some reason I don't have the "add" button on any of my layers, let alone my shape layer, in multiple different saved files / compositions... don't know why, hunted through the internet to no prevail... :(
Hi Justin...I have a question and it is probably a dumb question but I am trying to take some 3D text in AE and make it shatter...For some reason I can't get it to do it in the timeline of the project but if I do a new comp I can get it to work. When I toggle off the 3d cube my txt disappears...when I turn it back on the text comes back but it wont shatter...have you got any idea what I am doing wrong??
I got a little lost a few times because I could not see where the pointer was. I just rewind and watch again. Overall, I think the video was great. I tried it with my logo and it worked. Thanks
i just added as many paths to the shape layer as there were masks on my logo layer then just copy and pasted the path from each mask to its respective path in the shape layer like he explained and it worked for me hope this helps ya.
Cool.....but Can I create something like this BUT with Both the Interaction and Animation ????I mean.,....with my mouse rotate the logo? interact the way I want ? Into a file.....like png ...Ive seen embebed files we can rotate and interact ...its cool
Great video! I have a logo that has transparency in the middle of it. I created another shape layer and copied an pasted it like in shape layer one but idk how to make it transparent? I also would like to have my image in the logo as my png has it. any tips? thank you?
When I created the shape layer and added the path I only got a white outline of my shape. Fill settings were all correct. I'm in Cinema 4D. I am not sure where I went wrong.
HI there! I regular watch your videos. Just want to know one important thing that how do I solve multiple shapes in auto trace. and then how do I animate them
Hey very cool tute Justin, thanks kindly. I now have a very nice revolving floating 6 sec 3D logo thanks to you man. Alas, I'm kinda stuck tho.. I'm needing to add some raised text to my logo & looked all over but can't find any guides on how to do it. I had a few attempts but.. *bung bong* Hope you can help. Regards GA
I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THIS LESSON. complicated but worth it. using the png file. the path move - mask to path very good.. making a new shape layer and adding to it -- nice ..extrude.
when i press comand V it does not go on to the shape ..any clue what's gone wrong up to this point all good ..comand c to copy path to shape ..but then it will not go on to the shape just makes the strange shape next to it
Hi there, I have ten round icons each a different colour and with a different logo in the centre, I need to make the icons rotate and change to the next icon on each rotation, is something like that possible, I have been wrecking my brain trying to get it to work, I even tried doing it in photoshop using a video timeline but I just cannot get it right.
I'm just going to like this now because I feel like this is going somewhere. I love the tutorial but the log I have is not a solid. Do you have a tutorial for logos with detail?
If the logo has a few colors and designs on the shape is there a way to paste the logo to the front of the shape? For example if nike was spelled out on the swoosh how could I make sure that it is attached to the shape.
I’m not sure how to remove the background from the image I’m using to make an animation. I follow your steps but for some reason my png file still retains its background so I can’t make my logo 3D without making the entire image including the background 3d
This worked for me BUT I did it with a letter “Z” and when it rotates there’s still like a white z silhouette in the background. So there’s the a rotating z and then a outline of a z in the background that’s not moving. How can I fix that?
I’m trying to make a 3D model of a mini wall pack light and animate it so you can see all around the light. Could that be done in after effects or would something like that be more tailored to strictly a 3d rendering program like sketch up or adobe dimension?
Hey guys and girls, i know this video is Super old now but i cannot find the follow up, i have an image i am trying to spin from -90 to +90 degrees for 10 seconds which is easy but i want to keep the image attached to the shape layer while it spins
Hey Justin, great video as always, I have learned a ton from you. At the end of this video you mention the next video but I can not seem to find it? Can you point me to it?
This seems to only work for solid 1 mask type logos. Other ways are to use Element 3D or import from Illustrator and converting your multi point logo into a shape layer to use Extrude
For some reason i got more mask in my logo because there are more colours, i tried copying your steps and it almost worked, i only got one part of my logo 3D and spinning. so i tried it again and now it doesn't work at all it does not copy the image to the other layer at all now and i don't know what im doing wrong. i just whant my logo (png) full colour in 3D

Justin Odisho........Can We Do An Oval Type background in this?
Hey Justin I am have issue my path is not having fill with I copy it to shape layer
yo, where i can find the video are you talking about at the end of this video, the one with AE logo rotating at the end... I need that tutoria.. thank you
is there anyway to make this logo with transparent background, because I want create the 3d rotating icon for my websites preloader

When I auto trace with luminance instead of alpha (it's a b&w logo) I'm getting 576 masks...

(I brought the Ai / PNG file in just fine, but it separates out the paths for every individual element, even though I've created a compound path before importing...)
I would suggest to make the mask yourself, with fewer pins. The Auto-Trace has given you multiple points... hence the off lines when the shape spins

Also found this video helpful, but can't find the part 2 in your library. Have you created the second video yet?
Check the 3d text tutorial
Do you know a quicker way to create shape layers especially if you have 50+ Masks?
auto trace in illustrator first then save as .ai file. then import to after effects then make it a shape
@@eaglesallday8o8 i tried doing this with a simple white .PNG file in illustrator and it turned it into a white block
@@PuraMalum same

OMG! Everything I want to do with AE You really do it! Best AE tutorials ever!!!!!!
Such a good explanation, was tired watching so many of them, this one finally helped me. Thanks!! 👍

you deserve much more views you kept everything easy and simple
You're the Best every time i need to figure out something your videos are right on time!

Gonna see if i can put this to use, thanks Justin
I had never used Adobe After Effects in my life, installed it today and I was able to create a rotating logo with this tutorial. So cool!
looks like this would've been great! for some reason I don't have the "add" button on any of my layers, let alone my shape layer, in multiple different saved files / compositions... don't know why, hunted through the internet to no prevail... :(
Great tutorial, perfect balance between short and concise and simultaneously long enough to follow on a second monitor.
Thank you so much for sharing such a great idea with us
You are the definition of awesomeness
thanks, i was looking for a simple way to do this, and this worked wonderfully
I been looking for this! Thank you! How do you get it to loop back repeatedly after 10 seconds? +Justin Odisho

This is dope bro! Keep doing a great job
Thank you
super thankful for this video man, you really made this simple and easy to follow
Its a Great help thanks alot
I got a little lost a few times because I could not see where the pointer was. I just rewind and watch again. Overall, I think the video was great. I tried it with my logo and it worked. Thanks
I've done everything is this tutorial and my shape has no color or fill just the path outline what do I do ?
Same as myself and I have watched this video over 10 times
same thing for me but make sure you had selected the "path" where you can add a keyframe but dont
Hi Justin! What if the logo I am working with has more than 1 mask after auto tracing? How can I get all parts of my logo? thanks : )
i just added as many paths to the shape layer as there were masks on my logo layer then just copy and pasted the path from each mask to its respective path in the shape layer like he explained and it worked for me hope this helps ya.
Did you ever make the 2nd video you were talking about at the end about more advanced logos?
Check my 3D text video
great tutorial, I followed step by step and I got want I was looking for, thank you :)
Very Nice! Thanks!
Cool.....but Can I create something like this BUT with Both the Interaction and Animation ????I mean.,....with my mouse rotate the logo? interact the way I want ? Into a file.....like png ...Ive seen embebed files we can rotate and interact ...its cool
Great video! I have a logo that has transparency in the middle of it. I created another shape layer and copied an pasted it like in shape layer one but idk how to make it transparent? I also would like to have my image in the logo as my png has it. any tips? thank you?
Mine has the logo at the front, but the back side is grey. How do I change it to have the pattern/colors both sides?
thnk you for making this video...totally useful...great job
Just what I was looking for, thanks.
Doesn't work with text, I get 22 paths and they don't fill with colour
On the shape layer go to Add > Merge Paths
This will combine the paths into a single shape for editing
When I created the shape layer and added the path I only got a white outline of my shape. Fill settings were all correct. I'm in Cinema 4D. I am not sure where I went wrong.
same here plzz help

nice dude, this is gonna be clutch for learning how to make intros and other branding effects.. thanks
Thanks!
thank you so much
I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THIS LESSON. complicated but worth it.
using the png file. the path move - mask to path very good.. making a new shape layer and adding to it -- nice ..extrude.
Hey Justin! Where is the Video you´re talking about in the end?
dang it... this is the easiest way... thank you so much!
This was a fantastic tutorial. **SUBSCRIBED**
Hi Justin, am new at this, what the apps that I need to download for this project
thank you so much for this tutorial. easy to understand and follow.
Thanks, you've got me off the ground with this tutorial. Nice clear and simple. :-)
when i press comand V it does not go on to the shape ..any clue what's gone wrong up to this point all good ..comand c to copy path to shape ..but then it will not go on to the shape just makes the strange shape next to it
Have a great evening everyone!
Cool video man.
Such a good tutorial thanks !!!!

super helpful :) thanks a lot for making this tutorial
great video!
Brilliant, helped so much 👍
i want to make scrolling bullet points. should i use AF, or premiere?
GOAT, thank you so much
Great Tip bro
Very nice video!!! loved it
you the man! thanks justin! one day we will work together!
I’m not sure how to remove the background from the image I’m using to make an animation. I follow your steps but for some reason my png file still retains its background so I can’t make my logo 3D without making the entire image including the background 3d
This worked for me BUT I did it with a letter “Z” and when it rotates there’s still like a white z silhouette in the background. So there’s the a rotating z and then a outline of a z in the background that’s not moving. How can I fix that?
Not available in the new AF anymore the Geometry options you have to choose a old 3d render option.
thank you!!
I’m trying to do a logo with words but it keeps filling it in completely, how do I change this ?
Is there a way to get that logo really white? Mine has a film on top of it making it look greyish
Does this only work for something solid? Confused about what to do if I want to extrude something with holes in it
You can probably make it work with the right mask settings I’m just not sure exactly how to advise you to at the moment
I’m trying to make a 3D model of a mini wall pack light and animate it so you can see all around the light. Could that be done in after effects or would something like that be more tailored to strictly a 3d rendering program like sketch up or adobe dimension?
is there a way to leave a transparent background for a gif. file will be using it for a website.
Hey guys and girls, i know this video is Super old now but i cannot find the follow up, i have an image i am trying to spin from -90 to +90 degrees for 10 seconds which is easy but i want to keep the image attached to the shape layer while it spins
so awesome thanks mate

Check the 3d text tutorial I uploaded in After effects
This is awesome thank you!
How do you combined all the mask into one? cause im getting a lot of different colored masks
do you make logos for people? like if i sent in a logo that i wanted could you make it? i don’t have ae so i’m wonderig
i do have a "add" option on contents, is there any other way to path it?
I'm new to premiere pro and I want to learn how to do plug ins. you should do a tutorial on plugins for Mac
thanks,man

so i tried it again and now it doesn't work at all it does not copy the image to the other layer at all now and i don't know what im doing wrong.
i just whant my logo (png) full colour in 3D
