I have designed this course to be as thorough as possible so that by the time you are finished with it, you will have all the information I have on the After Effects 3d camera.

The course is broken down into 5 main sections:All 3d Cameras are NOT created equalUnder the CoversHow to Animate the 3d CameraTips & TricksProjectThe 3d camera Creation goes over How to Create a 3d camera and the Camera Settings Window itself.

This single screen is responsible for more confusion on this subject than anything else, and it is directly tied to the fact that most people just don’t understand what they are looking at.

I break down the Camera Settings Window into 3 easy to digest parts: Top, Middle, & Bottom.

By the time you are done with this section, you should not be confused about the Camera Settings Window any longer.

Under the Covers goes over the different ways to:Manipulate the 3d cameraTimeline settings: We cover the Regluar settings throughout the course but spend a bit of time in the extra settings such as Iris and Highlight.

Depth of field: I explain how After Effects creates this effect, how to adjust the settings, and show you the simplest breakdown of it working. Once you go thrugh this lesson, you will never have a problem with Depth of Field againand the different ways to view your after effects screen in order to take full advantage of space your 3d camera is operating in.

A nifty little trick to give you more control over your 3d camera.
