After Effects 3D text tutorial with rotating effect using free plugin Cinema4D renderer

Hello, this video will show how to make 3D text in After Effects   Firstly, we can add a new composition,  I will call it , how to make 3D text   I will keep this setting and then go to 3D renderer we should choose Cinema 4D   and then click ok, to add the text, we can click here to add it or we can right click here to add a new text I type it, T e x t , to demonstrate the 3D text and then we can go to Character, we can select the color here and let's say I choose pink color and then we can choose the font type here also we can change the font style here, and adjust the size of the text I'll move this in this location and scale up it to make 3D text, we can switch on the 3D layer here and then we got the text in the 3D space, we can change the orientation of the text or we can rotate it in 3D space, I will keep this angle and then to make the thickness of the text we can go to Geometry Options and then we can increase the Extrusion depth I'll use 100 and then we can add the bevel style There are options of angular, concave and convex, I will just convex and increase the bevel depth I will use 10 we can see that it doesn't show the 3D Shape of the text, because we are missing the light so we can add the light here, I will keep this setting we can see the 3D Shape of the text we can move the light, to highlights the area that you want   I'll move it here and move it here and I'd like to add the plane underneath the text I will use solid and keep it in purple color and click3D layer here and rotate to 90 degree and we'll move down here and scale up okay we can see that there is missing Shadow between  the text and the plane we can go to Spot Light Light option, to switch on the  cast shadows also go to the text Material options, switch on the Cast Shadows same thing go to the solid > material options > turn on the Cast Shadows   so we got the shadow underneath the 3D text,  and then we can adjust the text materials   to shiny I will use 50%in the metal  and reflection intensity turns to 50. the Light is quite important, so I'd like to add another lighting duplicate and put it to right and reduces Shadow Darkness to 50. Finally I'd like to show to set the animation  of the 3D text we can select the 3D text layer and R to show the rotational setting I'd like to set the 4 second to get the 25 degree and then the first seconds, I'd like to set 50. We have set the animation in 3D text rotation finally we can render this out this is how we can make 3D text in After Effects Thank you for watching this video hope this helped, Please Subscribe this channel, more video will be  shared with you I'm artist B,  see you in the next video bye!
