2D and 3D compositing environment

• Work in 2D and 3D compositing modes, and mix 2D and 3D layers in a composition.

• Create and animate multiple cameras and lights. Specify a point of interest, produce so shadows, and 

simulate different types of lights.

• See how layers interact in space and manipulate a composition from multiple perspectives using multiple 

views. Also save any number of views as a workspace.

• Project light through a layer to create colored shadows, stained-glass effects, and the look of projected slides.

• Use the Sequence Layers keyframe assistant to instantly stagger multiple layers in time, or the Align and 

Distribute tools to lay out layers spatially.

Unrivaled text animation

• Create text directly in the Comp window using Adobe-standard tools for typing, editing, and formatting 

text. Mix and match fonts and other attributes on a layer.

• Run text along any path, rotate or skew entire words or lines of text, set blend modes between characters, 

randomize the order of animation, and more.

• Create custom selectors with Expressions for advanced control over text animations.

• Save hours of animation time by instantly applying more than 250 professionally designed text Animation 

Presets, or create and save your own.

• Export animated text as vector-based SWF files to create innovative, Web-friendly animations that 

load quickly.

Powerful animation and keyframing

• Save any combination of animation parameters—including transformations, masks, Expressions, effects, 

and text—as Animation Presets to quickly reuse without setting keyframes.

• Produce effects such as variable slow motion, frame stuttering, backward playback, and hold frames using 

time remapping and frame blending.

• Apply motion blur to moving layers to produce more realistic animations.

• Create animations without using keyframes by defining Expressions that link the behavior of one layer 

property to that of another property on any layer in the composition.
