In this class I’ll be teaching you how to use shape layers in After effects to create the illusion of a 3D motion in an animation. To do this I’ll show you step-by-step how I created this faux 3D (aka 2.5D) swerving car using only shape layers in After Effects.
To take this class you’ll need a basic understanding of After Effects but I’ll cover the process slowly and in detail so even if you’re a relative beginner in After Effects it shouldn’t be too difficult to follow along!

Since I’ll be covering a few examples and techniques along the way to this finalized animation by the end of the class you’ll know how to:

– Faking a 3D object using simple 2D shape layers

– Create dynamic smoke

– Add realistic bounces and movement to assets using expressions

– And lots more!

By following along with this class you’ll end up with a looping faux 3D car animation and a great understanding of some useful skills to apply to your next animation project!
