  Best way to do this in 3D?

  Posted by Kit Carson on June 26, 2016 at 9:03 am

  I need to turn the 2d image into the 3d image

  

  Ive tried masking each section and rotating it in 3d but im finding it very difficult to make sure each section is on the correct axis and actually lining up.

  Think of it as “L” shapes instead of stripes. This way you can create a series of square pre-comps with the L shapes inside and position them in a zig zag (as seen from the top) and rotate the L shapes within the pre-comps to match the desired design.
  You can also use the following plugin to arrange the layers automatically on a path:

  Have you tried Polyline? It basically sets this kind of thing up for you in a snap. It’s by Motion Botique and a pretty powerful little tool. https://vimeo.com/124596281
