  View Double-Sided Image in 3D?

  Posted by Marty Arndt on September 9, 2008 at 12:57 pm

  Can After Effects create an animation where you see the front of an image, then move the camera around in 3D to see the back? For example, a wedding invitation with images/text on the front and back of a single page. The page would be upright and stationary while the camera moves to reveal the back side. Hope this makes sense.

  Thank you,
  Marty

  You probably will need 2 layers to do this, but as they can be very close to each other, there’s nothing difficult in it.

  Also, as layers are perfectly flat, there should be a moment in your camera travelling, where you switch from front to back view of the layer. That should happens between 2 frames, so you can also split the layer at this time and replace footage on the last one.
  Only heavy motion blur could make such split hard to do…
