It can render complex particle systems of up to five different 3D objects in close to real time (depending on your hardware), allowing hundreds of varying duplicate objects to be modified and rendered in minutes, rather than hours.įor even speedier results, the plugin even includes a series of preset bevels and objects for you to quickly apply to your scene. Another extremely impressive feature of Element is its staggering particle simulation. It features a respectable texture-mapping system to boot, with the interesting option to use an animated After Effects composition as a custom texture. With simple tasks like generating 3D text or a sphere, it’s easy to see why Element has become so popular. We’ll touch more on Cineware later, but for now just note the fact that Element can auto-extrude text with a simple “Extrude” button, and the release of Element V2 late last year introduced the ability to quickly generate simple 3D objects with basic modifiers and proportions. Any 3D modeling, even of the most basic kind, must be done in Cinema 4D. In comparison, Cinema 4D’s plugin, Cineware, does not actually offer the ability to create even rudimentary shapes.

Quick and effortless results are without a doubt the selling point of Element 3D. While the final results Element yields did not (and still do not) quite match the fidelity of rendering from a true 3D physical renderer, the time it saves make it very appealing to motion designers and video editors alike. Traditional 3D rendering platforms generally take minutes or in some cases, hours, to produce a single frame, making required workflow painstakingly tedious, whereas Element immediately displays a preview of the final result within seconds. Element was quickly thrust into the spotlight of tight deadline management, as it could save hours of work and render time with its mind-blowing Open GL custom render engine. Simple objects could actually be created on the fly with a just few clicks, without ever opening a 3D modeling program at all.

This was the first plugin to allow full control of 3D objects within After Effects, including everything past the stage of 3D modeling. Led by Andrew Kramer, Video Copilot released Element 3D in July of 2012, and the standalone plugin quickly reached widespread success due to its lightning-fast render times, simple interface, and overall convenience.

With After Effects plugins like Cineware and Video Copilot‘s Element 3D, you can important 3D objects into a normal composition and render it all at once, rather than testing your patience with the trial and error of rendering and properly compositing separate sequences.Ĭineware and Element 3D are both very effective ways to render 3D objects within After Effects, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. With their overwhelming complexity, 3D programs can be rather discouraging at first. Learning to work with a completely new program can seem like overkill when you just need something relatively trivial like 3D titles.

Adding 3D objects into a scene can be a pain, especially when you just need something simple like an extruded 3D title. Thankfully, software released over the past few years has simplified this process by implementing it into Adobe After Effects, a more familiar platform for many users.
