  • Importing 3D objects into AE without the 3D program

    Posted by Aaron Davis on December 20, 2011 at 4:18 pm

    Is it possible to import a Cinema 4D or 3D Max file into After Effects without aforementioned programs? I’m looking to buy a relatively simple model off of TurboSquid and bring it into an AE project but I don’t have the programs that the model was created in. I do have Blender (but don’t really know how to use it) if that could help. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Some models can be imported into Photoshop and then the Photoshop 3d model can be opened in AE, but it’s not going to be as good as you might want it. Info here: [link]
