Element 3D V2

Element 3D V2, developed by Video Copilot, is a powerful 3D object and particle rendering engine designed for Adobe After Effects. It enables users to create and animate 3D models directly within After Effects, offering a seamless workflow for integrating 3D elements into motion graphics and visual effects projects.

Key Features of Element 3D V2:

• 3D Object Import: Supports importing and rendering 3D models from various formats, including OBJ and C4D, allowing for detailed and customizable 3D assets.
• Real-Time Rendering: Provides real-time rendering capabilities, enabling users to see changes and updates instantly as they work on their 3D projects.
• Advanced Shading and Lighting: Includes a range of shading and lighting options, such as reflections, refractions, and shadow controls, to enhance the realism of 3D objects.
• Particle Engine: Features an integrated particle system for creating complex particle effects, including explosions, smoke, fire, and more, with easy-to-use controls.
• Physical-Based Rendering (PBR): Utilizes PBR materials and shaders to achieve photorealistic textures and surface properties on 3D models.
• Customizable Materials: Offers extensive material editing options, including presets and customizable properties, to achieve the desired look for 3D objects.
• Animation Tools: Provides tools for animating 3D objects and particles, including keyframing, particle emitters, and deformation controls.
• Scene Integration: Allows for seamless integration of 3D elements with 2D layers and effects in After Effects, enabling complex compositions and visual effects.
• Multi-Object Support: Supports rendering multiple 3D objects and particles within a single scene, with controls for managing their appearance and behavior.

Element 3D V2 is widely used in motion graphics, visual effects, and video production for its ease of use, real-time feedback, and powerful 3D capabilities, making it an essential tool for After Effects users looking to incorporate 3D elements into their projects.
