making a illustrator file looke 3d in ae
I made a rounded edge rectangle with i am calling a “business card” in illusrtator. I bring it into after effects 7 and make that layer 3d. Then I duplicate the biz card layer 50 times. Then i offset the z value of all 50 biz card layers by one. so the z value is increaseing by 1 spaneing all 50 card layers. i select all 50 card layers and rotate them all to see if my card has good 3d depth and it does not? i am trying to make the card have depth like a dvd box for example, does anyone have any suggestions as to what i am doing wrong?

This should probably work. Have you tried solids instead of AI objects?

man, wouldn’t that hog your processor??
try this insteadapply shatter to a separate 2d solid and move the force way away from the screen.
set your custom shatter map to your logo’s layer and that should do the trick.
oh yea and i think you have to turn off your gravity and stuff to keep it from moving.this would be way faster and easier to manage.. man, that had to be a hassle making all those layers if you didn’t use expressions.
