I've always done my camera work manually and than all of a sudden I see what these dolly and panning tools are. That is going to same me so much time. Thanks once again mate.
Always learning something new😁 thank you for watching mate. You could even quickly use all camera tools if you hold ALT key, left mouse button, scroll wheel and right mouse button respectively become camera tools. But that works with after effects 2022 and above I believe.
@@SmertimbaGraphics For some bizarre reason, on my After Effects journey, I have just never seen them used in a tutorial, so I just never picked it up. I like your videos because even on subjects I know, you always seem to throw in some great little tips.
@@SmertimbaGraphics I'm trying to animate the "Universal" Animation from the Universal Studios on the sky from a video footage. It should look like that the Word is actually moving over the sky 😄 Harder than i thought. It would be awesome if you know how to do that 😉
hello, thank you so much for the tutorial. I tried executing the process and everything was going smoothly until i added the light and the shadows did not appear somehow although i checked the cast shadows box. I don't know why i can't seem to have shadows on my 3D text :( If anybody knows how to help, i would really appreciate.
Maybe the light intensity is too low or the light is too far away from the text, also make sure you are not in 3d draft mode, that disables shadows and the rest
when i clicked on 3D for my text it's turned completely black and my text doesn't show up anymore,can you tell me why it does that?thank you very much:)
@SmertimbaGraphics I only have 2 options Classic 3D & Ray-traced 3D tried both just now. I also noticed in the gaussian blur setting I do not have the checkbox of Repeat Edge Pixels (can this be the reason?)
@@SmertimbaGraphics you better do it Bro, I'll watch it until I get permanently burned in skill share courses 😂😂 or better still do a TH-cam master course on after effects
this is exactly what I have been looking for so long (how to quickly make a reflection on a 3D object) thank you very much
Glad I could help♥️
Thanks a lot that was very clear straight to the point and easy to follow :)

That's great to know, I'll keep adding more useful tips then 😁
Thank you. This is a great refresher!
Great Video! Thanks a lot, i will try it out!
It's a pleasure, enjoy👍

If you have element plugin it would be a lot easier😁
nice nice nice 👌
Thanks ✌️
Good work
Thanks
Question why did you add the photo? I was assuming the 3D text would be show with the photo at the end? Great explanation regarding the 3D text.
I added a photo to make it an environment layer, that way texts reflects whatever you add
Thank you !!!!!
Welcome!
Hi, this is a good work. But i have issue whenever i click on Draft 3D, the screen is always black.😔
It's supposed to be white if I'm correct 🤔
Amazing
Thank you😊
thanks!
Welcome
Hello! How does it work if I'm using a vector image instead of text?
First you convert the vector layer into a shape layer, then proceed with the rest of the steps
hello, thank you so much for the tutorial. I tried executing the process and everything was going smoothly until i added the light and the shadows did not appear somehow although i checked the cast shadows box. I don't know why i can't seem to have shadows on my 3D text :( If anybody knows how to help, i would really appreciate.
Hard to say what the problem is, do you get the inner shadows though? cast shadows option is required to cast shadows onto other layers
@@SmertimbaGraphics inner shadows? What does that mean? Is there an option for that?
@@SmertimbaGraphics no i got no shadows, it stayed flat
Maybe the light intensity is too low or the light is too far away from the text, also make sure you are not in 3d draft mode, that disables shadows and the rest
@@SmertimbaGraphics okay i will try and get back to you thanks a lot 🙏🏻
my after effects keeps crashing when i click cinema 4d. Any sollutions?
I haven't had that issue, can't say why that is🤔
it happened to me too, idk
when i clicked on 3D for my text it's turned completely black and my text doesn't show up anymore,can you tell me why it does that?thank you very much:)
Did you add a light layer?
cineware server suite failed to acquire rendered port and path@@SmertimbaGraphics
I'm not able to make the Map composition into an Environment layer, please guide
What exactly is the issue?
@@SmertimbaGraphics when I right click on the Map comp the environment layer option is gryed out (cannot select it)
You most likely didn't change the renderer in composition settings
@SmertimbaGraphics I only have 2 options Classic 3D & Ray-traced 3D tried both just now. I also noticed in the gaussian blur setting I do not have the checkbox of Repeat Edge Pixels (can this be the reason?)
You need cinema 4d renderer, that will also allow you to extrude the shapes
Why when i set the image as enviroment layer it becomes at the background
You can't see the environment layer, only in reflections
@@SmertimbaGraphicsthat's supposed to happen but it becomes the background
THANK YOU SO MUCH BRO, DO YOU HAVE SKILLSHARE COURSE OR RECOMMEND ME TO SOMEONE
Thanks for watching😊
No I do not have any courses as of now 😁
@@SmertimbaGraphics you better do it Bro, I'll watch it until I get permanently burned in skill share courses 😂😂 or better still do a TH-cam master course on after effects
I appreciate it 😁 will think of it for future 💯
@@SmertimbaGraphics thanks

Its shadows does not work for me!
