2 Curriculum

1. Rotate Saturn's rings in 3D

Through the difference between how to create 3D with 2D effects and After Effects 3D , you can learn about the convenience of 3D and the basic concepts of 3D, from 2D to This course explains the know-how of creating 3D . Through this process, you will naturally learn the core concepts and principles of 3D and the differences between 2D and 3D.

2. Transform 3D

This course will solidify your foundation in 3D animation, including explanations of the 3D Transform feature, which allows you to freely manipulate 3D layers, effective know-how, and troubleshooting. Demaster's examples are optimized for developing core principles, conceptual formation, and application skills, without plagiarizing from foreign tutorials.

3. Light & Material
This course provides precise explanations of each type of light and explains how to create three-dimensional textures using materials and how to effectively use lighting. Learn lighting effects naturally through easy examples and a variety of scenarios.

4. Understanding 3D Camera

Beginners will learn the fundamentals of cameras, the most challenging aspect of photography, step by step, even going so far as to understand the principles of actual camera zoom. You'll also learn how to create complex 3D effects using cameras and acquire the know-how to use settings that are difficult to learn elsewhere.

5. Comprehensive example
Demaster's examples are designed to maximize educational effectiveness, tailored to the learner's level, rather than focusing on flashy, popular content. Furthermore, they naturally foster a variety of applied skills and enhance problem-solving skills in a variety of situations. While reviewing the entire course, you will also learn Dima Young's practical tips.

6. Additional lectures for users of the latest version ( applicable to all versions )
