Intro to After Effects: Basic After Effects 3D

       You can add lights and a camera in the scene. Add the lights just right, you make it look exciting or spooky. With cameras, you can easily animate it by add one frame to it, then moving it to another frame for a rotation.

        You can add effects to the shapes or objects to their shadows. You can make a metal, shiny or simple default shadows. You can move the compositions just right to make that one objects can have a shadow while the other doesn't.

      You add a null to a group of objects to easily move it. Just put the null in the place you want, select all the objects, parent it to the parents. So after you can move it as you please.

       You can also attach a camera to a null object. Once you parent them together, if you move the null, the camera will follow the path.
