Hi

[Dan Ebberts] “So once you fire up AE, you just apply that preset from the Effects & Presets palette.”

This pseudo effects are not in the Effects+Presets palette.
BTW.does it work for you?

Hi
[Justin Rank] “I turn the 3D switch on and run a camera around the object and it’s still stuck on a 2D layer”

you could animate the CC Sphere rotation property instead of using a camera.

[Justin Rank] “is there a way to create TRUE 3D spheres in AE?”

Hi

[mozwald] “Basically i have a photoshop image that i want to incorporate the lines around and through the image(“

if your layer has got an alpha channel use the option “Obscuration Layer”,it’s under Visibility.

Hi

here is one way:
>apply the write on effect on a solid(same size as your earth layer)=> Paint style=On Transparent
>Expression for Brush position

frame=timeToFrames(t = time + thisComp.displayStartTime, fps = 1.0 / thisComp.frameDuration, isDuration = false);
period=6;//creates dots every 6. frame
seed =Math.floor(frame/period)

seedRandom(seed, 1);
random([0,0],[thisComp.width,thisComp.height])

>apply CC Sphere

Hi
if your layer has got an alpha channel use the option “Obscuration Layer”,it’s under Visibility.
Unless you have an alpha channel use masks or even a luma matte might work,depends on your footage!
