Motion Graphics and Visual Effects
Creation Software
After Effects CS3 Professional brings infinite variety to your creative vision and stunning impact
to your communications. Animate freely using Shape Layers and the Puppet tool; combine
moving imagery with still images, text, and sound; and manipulate your creations with
inexhaustible effects combinations. Work from scratch or jump-start projects quickly with
hundreds of customizable animation presets and templates, and use the Brainstorm feature
to generate animation variations based on parameters you choose.
Intuitive interface lets you accomplish even the most complex tasks fast. Enhanced multicore
and multiprocessor support offers faster rendering. Tight integration with Adobes world-class
applications lets you to move easily between After Effects and Photoshop CS3 Extended, Premiere Pro CS3, Illustrator CS3 and
more. When your projects reach review, clients and colleagues can make timecode-specific comments using Adobe Clip Notes,
streamlining the approval process and getting you on to the next job.
Designed for tomorrow, today, flexible tools let you produce professional output for cutting-edge media types, like FLV and
SWF for the web or mobile devices; work with a wide range of file formats from HDV to OpenEXR, H.264, and Camera Raw; and
take advantage of additional animation presets available for download via Adobe Exchange.
32-bit 2D and 3D Compositing and Animation
Start a composition in 8-bit color mode, and
then finalize and output it to 16-bit or 32-bit
color for optimal quality. Produce work that
is film- and HDTV-ready using the range of
colors available in 16- and 32-bit color
modes.
Mix and match 2D and 3D layers in a single
composition in real time using OpenGL
acceleration. OpenGL 2.0 capabilities
include blend modes, 2D motion blur,
common effects, shadows, and transparency.
Export Vanishing Point data from Photoshop
CS3 Extended, and then import the data into
After Effects to automatically build a 3D
composition from the 2D Photoshop image.
Create and animate multiple cameras and
lights. Specify a point of interest, produce
soft shadows, and simulate different types
of lights to add depth.
Create adjustment layers similar to those in
Photoshop to apply effects to any layers that
appear below them.
Quickly arrange multiple layers in time with
the Sequence Layers keyframe assistant, and
arrange layers in space with the Align and
Distribute tools.
See how layers interact in space and
manipulate a composition from multiple
perspectives using multiple views. Use
predefined workspaces or create your own
to contextually streamline your workflow.
Automatically adjust motion blur based on
the speed of the layer to provide high
quality output for fast-moving objects;
high-quality and faster rendering for slow
moving objects.
Project light through a layer to create
colored shadows, stained-glass effects, and
the look of projected slides.
Speed up production by defining a parent-
child relationship between layers so that
the child layer inherits all transformations
applied to the parent.
Produce cool animations from scratch by
creating layers, adding masks, and applying
effects. Or use the included project
templates to quickly create DVD motion
menus, animated backgrounds, and more.
Import 3D camera and null animation data
in the Alias Maya (MA) format, directly from
Maya or from any 3D tracking software that
can export MA files, such as 2d3’s boujou.
Text and Vector Graphics
Creation and Animation
Create text using standard Adobe tools for
typing, editing, and formatting text. Easily
edit text created in Photoshop. Mix and
match fonts and other attributes on a layer.
Animate text along paths, transform or dis-
place words or lines of text over time, set
inter-character blending modes, randomize
the order in which characters animate, blur,
or wiggle your text, and more.
Save animation time by instantly applying
more than 250 professionally designed, fully
editable text animation presets, or create
and save your own. Use Adobe Bridge CS3 to
conveniently preview and apply presets.
Explore new text animation possibilities by
making individual characters in your text—
or phrase—move and rotate in 3D space.
Easily create and animate vector graphics
with new Shape Layers. Add and animate
strokes, fills, gradients, and vector effects.
You can convert text into shapes and
animate them just like any other shape type.
Export animated text as vector-based SWF
files to create innovative, web-friendly
animations.
