Adobe After Effects and 3-D text plug-in
![]()
If you have used After Effects for any amount of time I am sure you have noticed there is no way to make true 3-D text. The only way to achieve this has been through a third-party plug-in such as Zaxs Werks. I always like to try and use what is already in After Effects without spending money on a plug-in, if I can make it work. Well our friend at maltaannon.com has come up with a great preset for making 3-D text without a plug-in. This is amazing and you need to check this out! This allows you to extrude any vector based layer to give it a real 3D look inside After Effects. No more duplicating layers, no more expensive 3D software.
