(Updated 2023!) 🎥 'Movie Projector Intro' lets you create a custom film projector animation in Adobe After Effects. Display your footage, text, or logo on the projector screen. Learn more at creationeffects.com/movie-projector-intro.
The included old-film effects give your content an old-fashioned film-look. This template gives you complete creative freedom, offering multiple background environments to choose from (or use your own images), a variety of preset camera movements (or create your own), and customizable old-film effects. The high-quality 3D models can be viewed from any angle in After Effects, without ever opening Cinema 4D.

Template features:
3D Model - This detailed, vintage film projector and projector screen were modeled in Cinema 4D for this template. You won’t ever need to open Cinema 4D to make your animation. (See note about rendering at bottom of page).
Choose Your Background - The 3D room that the projector sits in can be customized with your own images, or with any of the 21 high-res images included in the template. So you can surround the projector with red curtains, graffiti-covered walls, red brick, bookshelves, and more.
Choose Your Camera Movements - The template includes 25 3D camera movements which show the projector at different angles and focal lengths. Or, just add a new camera layer and you can create your own unique shot.
Custom Old-Film Effects - Over 20 old film effects, borrowed from the Creation Film Effects template, including projector sound effects and an authentic film leader and countdown clip.
Easy Customization - A convenient "Control Layer" contains slider controls for customizing the 3D room and lighting.
Pre-rendered Clips - The first six clips of the projector and screen (as seen in the demo video), are already rendered with a transparent background, and are included in the template to save you time in rendering!
