In this 2.5D tutorial lesson from StyleCraft, I’m going to teach you how to create depth with 2.5D in #AfterEffects using photos and textures. In this lesson we'll go over the tools and techniques for adding this look and feel to your designs. I will also discuss how to animate the #3dcamera and layers in 3D space so they move back and forth between foreground and background.
