Release Issued by XChange:
New Layer Tools for After Effects Ships
XChange International, the source for extended technology worldwide,
are pleased to announce the release of the new Layer Tools plug-in for
Adobe® After Effects®. Layer Tools is an exciting set of plug-ins that
enables the motion graphics artist to do things to 3D layers that are
usually very difficult and time consuming. Layer Tools solves the
problems facing Photoshop users who try to convert their Photoshop
image layers into 3D graphics only to have the design fall apart due
to perspective. It also provides the ability for motion graphic
artists to create perfect match-frames between 3D animation and 2D
movie footage.
Layer Tools enables users to rotate, move and scale many layers at
once with an ease and flexibility that hasnąt been available before.
Layer Tools can move layers in 3D without having them change screen
size and can make any 3D layer perfectly fit the comp to make match
frames.
Features:
- Extremely useful tools for compositors and motion graphics artists
- Move layers in Z without changing their screen size
- Turn Photoshop layouts into 3D without ruining the look and feel
- Push back portions of a mosaic image while keeping the perspective
- Make any 3D layer exactly fit the comp window
- Rotate, move and scale any set of selected After Effects 3D layers,
without adding nulls, parents or collapsing transformations
