Position layers in 3d space with the 3d axis system, dragging on x, y, and z to align with the camera, where z depth governs front/back.
Animate in 3D space in After Effects by keyframing position and rotation, adjusting the 3D motion path with handles and graph editing to achieve smooth, synchronized layers.
Explore the multi-plane effect in After Effects with 3D space, creating depth by moving near objects faster than distant ones.
Create a multi-plane system in After Effects by placing layers on different z-axis planes, using a camera to move distant clouds slowly and nearby houses faster.
Practice activity tutorial demonstrates multi-planing in 3d space by rotating layers with keyframed y-rotation, adjusting motion paths, and using 5-degree elevation for lifelike animation.
Explore camera presets in After Effects CC by comparing 50mm and 35mm setups, understanding the active camera, point of interest, zoom, and angle of view to guide animation.
Explore using the camera tools in the active camera view to control position, point of interest, and zoom with X, Y, Z tracking and keyframes across left and top views.
Create an orbit animation in 3D space by arranging layers around a center point in After Effects CC, using a camera, auto orient toward the camera, and depth of field.
Learn to create a camera orbit in after effects cc by using a null object as the orbit controller, rotating the camera around 3D layers.
Explore creating 3D lights in After Effects, starting with ambient light, adjusting color and intensity, and ensuring layers are 3D so lighting affects them.
Explore how point lights illuminate 3D layers in After Effects CC by adjusting position, color, radius, and falloff, and compare to parallel and spotlight behaviors for dynamic 3D animation.
Explore how a point light creates dynamic shadows in After Effects CC, adjusting shadow intensity and which layers accept shadows, while 3D solids interact to reveal shadow movement.
Learn how collapse transformations expose 3-D options for nested comps and 3-D layers, adjust material options within the comp, and manage shadows and lighting to render 3-D shapes.

Learn the concepts, tools, methods and properties that you need to create stunning animations in Adobe After Effects 3D Space.
3D Space is essential to creating animations. Many avoid 3D all together thinking it is difficult and hard to work with.
The Truth: it is Not.
3D elements are excellently introduced in this organized and unique course and are easy to learn and practice.
Learn the important methods and properties in After Effects 3D:
Master Cameras: Styles, Presets, Modes, Parameters
Work with Lights and understand their effects.
Optimize the Views for better and faster results.
Create Shadows using the elements that make shadows appear
Learn Multi-planning within the 3D space – an essential concept to using 3D
A unique approach to learning 3D:
This course is unique in its approach to 3D. You will learn each element separately and in-depth. You will master every element before moving to the next. Separating the learning experience for each element will allow you to focus on the details that make or break your 3D experience.
You will also fully understand how to work with the views. Mastering and optimizing the orthographic views will make a genuine pro. It is then that you will start ‘seeing’ 3D as easy and simple.
Content and overview
You will start by noting the similarities and differences between 3D and 2D and discovering orientation and rotation and how to use them.
You will learn about multi-planning how to fake it in 2D and how to use it in 3D. This very important step will cement your understanding of 3D in After Effects and will allow you to start manipulating your views in readiness to adding Cameras and Lights.
Moving on to cameras: An in-depth overview of Cameras in After Effects. The different type of Cameras and how they affect your scenes and animations. Mastering Cameras and all its parameters, options, setting dialogue will finalize the conceptual (and practical) learning for 3D.
One of the most impressive features in After Effects is the ability to create lights, mixing 2D and 3D and getting amazing effects. You will get a detailed explanation and practical overview of the Lights system in After effects and how to use them with Text Animations or lighting up still scenes.
Much more is covered in this course – Such as shadows, depth of field, falloffs and much more.
