  • Best 3D Text Plug-In

    Posted by Brett Putman on July 27, 2010 at 8:03 pm

    Basically, the title says it all.

    I am looking for a solid plug-in that does 3D text in AE.
    I know that there is a couple out there, but I want to know from the experts, what the best ones are.

    Thanks dudes.

    I have had great success with Zaxwerks 3d Invigorator Pro. It has its quirks, but once you get used to it, life is good.

    Another vote for Zaxwerks — but it’s not 64-bit ready for CS5 yet. Boris FX 3D Objects is CS5-ready.

    I’m keeping my eyes peeled for Mettle’s Shapeshifter; I love Freeform, and I’m looking forward to see what they come up with.

    My vote is for Boris 3D extruded text. Less clunky than invigorator but then again, I haven’t used invig in years.
