Welcome to a new exciting tutorial. I'm Emil, and today we're going to create a 3d text on After Effects without any kind of plugin. Okay to start, you need to create new composition, I can click here, then we'll name the composition as text. And my width will be 1920 by 180 pixel and duration will be seven seconds and background color will be by default black for now. And make sure that 3d render is not the classic 3d. It should be cinema 4d.

If you have a bad computer, make sure you go to the options and keep the quality low so that everything loads very fast. And now hit OK. And okay and it will actually or something like this. So let's write something here first. Make sure you go here and on the title action save so that you can align it perfectly. Okay, I think I think this is fine. And now there is a 3d box.

Make sure you take that. Then click on the drop down and go to the geometric option. And here is extrusion depth, bevel depth. So to see everything is going perfect easily we'll get only one view from here. But what we'll do we'll click on that two beers horizontal and see what's going on there is no extrusion. So, what I will do, I will increase the extrusion Can you see?

So, our text layer is already in 3d with right amount of lighting and camera it will it will look good. So now, we will create a new camera, go to the camera, hit OK. Then hit OK. Then on your keyboard hit C and then you will get a rotate option like this not rotated so that you can see from the side. Okay, now we'll go to the layer new and we'll create a life And our light color will be white, but you can change it. And I will explain you why. Now you can see, it's looking good. So now I want to play around with my lighting up so that you can get the possibilities open.

And this is our main view. This is how it will look like at our final render. And here's the top view of why I kept this option is because so that I can see what's going on with a light and camera so that I can control it better. So now let's make it cool. See already looking nice. Now we'll create another light.

From here, go to Layer new five. And we'll we'll, we'll make a different color. Let's select this one and hit OK. And there we go is our tree. Okay, now go to the spotlight settings, lighting options and you can play around with other effects. But for this slide what we'll do is we'll cast shadows and it is off right now. Hate on So what it will do it will cast some shadow.

So now what we are going to do, we will animate the camera so go to the camera transform can keyframe point of interest and position we'll go to three seconds from here then animated. There we go. I think right now is looking nice. So let's see. And now we can as we can see the keyframes will select all Then go to the keeper masters and then hit easy is no go to the one view and see how it looks like right now. And this is this is our 3d text animation looks like so we can also improve it.

For example we can change our color go to the spotlight to light options you can like keep any color present well right now we'll have raid so it's up to you. And we can also play around with the bevel options go to the text and pebble depth is there. There is a bit better Let's talk so we can play sample concave. So if we zoom in and see it in full resolution, we can see some very nice curves there. So, possibilities are endless, but this is how we can create a cinematic title like this.
