In these two tutorials I show you how to create a unfolding box animation, one just with After Effects 3D solids and the other using the Element3D plugin.

Lollies and Ice Cream made with Trapcode Tao using animated lights, in Adobe After Effects. The melting away was done with CC Mr Mercury and the text with Element 3D. Trapcode Particular was used for the sprinkles on the Fab Lolly!
I created a character from my logo in Adobe Illustrator and animated the eyes, ears, hair, and mouth in Adobe After Effects. I was going to add hands and feet but decided that it looked weird.
This is a collection of characters made with Trapcode Tao in Adobe After Effects. Animated lights and Cameras perented to Null objects were used to create the characters.
Cyber Beast music track by Jake South, the guy behind the music of my short film Spirit of the Woods. The animations are done with the kaleidoscope program Inspirit.
Most of 2018 was spent putting the short film “Spirit of the Woods” together, which was a lot of fun. After the short film was finished time was spent putting the DVD together for the cast and crew, which turned out great. Other things created in 2018 were animated gifs with Trapcode Tao including some Gingerbread men and a Caterpillar character. I also started playing with the kaleidoscope program Inspirit which can be hypnotic!
In 2019 I hope to make more animations and would like to make another short film.
Most of the animations were created using Trapcode Tao, with animated lights. Element 3D, Trapcode Particular and Red Giant Universe were also used.
Merry Christmas.
Here are the outtakes for my latest short film “Spirit of the Woods”. The background music is done by Jake South.
