After opening and then saving a 3ds file in Photoshop Extended, bring it into After Effects CS4 for some 3D animation. The new CS4 version of After Effects includes some new controls for animation, as well as abilities to add a broad range of effects to the 3D object. Experiment and enjoy the new CS4 capabilities.

hello! i just want to tell u that i need adobe after effect CS4,but i have got no money so if u can help me with your kindness here is ma adress 24,sandyhill road ig12et ilford,essex ok bye
I watch carefully your video because ive been having a big problem with 3d layers in AE CS4.
I have a model in Maya and i export it as .obj and run to Photoshop CS4 extended then its really 3d there , i color it there and save it as PSD .
Then i go to AE CS4 and import it as live photoshop
layer, but my problem is, that the layer is not 3d anymore. If i use the camera there, it stays in 2d like a piece of flat paper when rotated.
I really dont know whats wrong, or did i miss something?
And also when i double click on the (something like a precomposed icon), it has no camera in there.
Im thinking maybe because ur file was a 3ds and mine was .obj… i really dont know
Hope you can help me

Someone should really delete that guy’s post with the address in it. Even if it’s a fake, it shouldn’t be displayed in a public forum.
i like it!
