  • Apple Magnification Effect with 3D LAYERS

    Posted by Gabriel Rocha on February 22, 2016 at 8:17 pm

    Hello Everyone, i know a lot of people asked about this already, but im trying to achieve this effect in a 3D environment in AE. Like a carroussel of Elements rotating in 3D, and when the get close to another 3D layer they magnify (Scale up).

    I found a way to do this in 2D in several posts here, but not with 3D layers.
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you!

    I’m not quite sure I understand what you’re trying to achieve. I know I did a project just a little while ago where I used a 3d layer with the magnification effect on it. And in order to get it in the shape of another layer, I precomped that layer (with the 3d layer inside it), collapsed transformations and used it as a track matte for the adjustment layer with the magnify effect.

    I don’t know if that helps you though because I’m not quite sure what you’re trying to achieve.

    Kind of. But nothing to do with shapes.
    This is the effect basically:

    BUT it have to work on 3D space, so when the layer gets closer to the other it Scales UP ( like Magnification effect). It doesnt matter from which direction it’s coming from, X, Y or Z.

    Thank you.

    Ahh, I see. Unfortunately I don’t know enough about expressions to help with that.
