Adobe After Effect 2024
Adobe After Effects 2024 comes with several exciting features and enhancements. Let’s dive into some of the key updates:
- Per-Character Styling:
- In the March 2024 release (version 24.3), After Effects introduces per-character styling. This feature allows you to have much finer control over the appearance and animation of characters within a Text layer using scripting.
- With this enhancement, you can create more dynamic and customized text animations by adjusting individual characters’ properties.
- 3D Model Import (February 2024 release, version 24.2):
- After Effects now supports importing OBJ 3D models directly into your compositions. This opens up new creative possibilities for integrating 3D elements seamlessly with your 2D motion graphics.
- You can import complex 3D models, manipulate their position, rotation, and scale, and even animate them within your After Effects projects.
- Motion Graphics Template Thumbnails:
- In the February 2024 release, you can enable video previews of Motion Graphics templates as thumbnails. This makes it easier to browse and choose templates for your projects.
- The ability to see a preview of how a template will look before applying it can significantly improve your workflow.
- Environmental Lighting with .exr Files (December 2023 release):
- The December 2023 release introduced support for .exr files for environmental lighting. You can use high-dynamic-range (HDR) .exr images to create realistic lighting in your 3D scenes.
- This feature enhances the visual quality of your renders, especially when working with 3D elements.
Remember that these are just a few highlights, and there are many other improvements and fixes in each release. If you’re an After Effects user, I recommend exploring the official Adobe documentation for a comprehensive overview of all the features and enhancements in each version. Happy animating! 😊
