In this After Effects Animation Tutorial you will learn how to create *realistic 3D spheres* with these 3 advanced 3D techniques in After Effects.
Typically, materials like matte black, transparent glass, and opaque surfaces are only available in 3D software such as Blender or Cinema 4D, but in this video, you'll discover how to achieve these effects directly in After Effects. You'll also learn how to embed 3D objects inside spheres for even more advanced visuals. Perfect for both beginners and pros, this tutorial covers key techniques in 3D animation and material design.
