    Hello…

    I am trying to learn how to create cool stuff in Adobe After Effects. But I am facing some issues:

    1- After I finished my illustration in Illustrator, I imported the Illustrator file into After Effect, but it seems that my illustration got pixelated ( not too much, but it shows when i zoom in). how can I fix this problem? (knowing that I set the resolution of my Illustrator file at high resolution)

    2- I have a 2d shape done in Illustrator and I wanna make it 3d in After Effect, but when I click on the Geometry options, I cannot see the Extrusion Depth option, all what I see under the Geometry Options is the Curvature and Segments options… Any ideas how can i make 2d imported shape from Illustrator to be 3d in After Effect?

    Thanks…

    1. You need to enable continuous rasterize.

    2. You need to change your renderer for that comp to cinema 4d renderer. You can access that by Ctrl K or Cmd K, 3D renderer.

    Don’t forget to convert your vectors to shape layers.

    There are a ton of YouTube tutorials on this.

    Also, prep your vectors in AI accordingly.
