fun with foil: C4D 3D easter stuff
I was going to make a quick project about printed foil (or applying a texture to separate faces of single item), and I got carried away in texture creation. Beware: Material layers in CINEMA 4D are so much fun (and easy), you can easily lose hours to creative play. file download.easter egg_foil_01.c4d.zip

Fish light rays: The simple breakdown
You can create much more than this - with dynamic lighting, lens blurs, caustics - it's all in After Effects - but if you need to confine your composite to the "SOMETHING EASY IN 3 MINUTES" rule, you can create each of these After Effects comps in less than a minute - - of course tweaking should take you considerably longer.... here's a headstart (read more / get file)

Vegas baby!
Sometimes it's easier to respond to questions from the After Effects forum by creating a file. I think there might be an answer somewhere on the After Effects Channel too - - schleicher and nagel made 100s of tutorials even before I showed up.
You'll need the letter "H" from fotosearch or from the post here.

Photoshop CS3E 3D 4/5
You can also apply images to the adjoining surfaces, although sometimes those pieces of 3D geometry don't reside next to each other in the smart object texture.
Second to last - -you know what's coming next....

Photoshop Halloween
If you have Adobe's Photoshop CS3 Extended, you can import 3D models from other applications. If there are 3D models in a Photoshop CS3e project, you can open up the textures and modify them to suit the project at hand.
The first thing you need to do is identify the mappinig areas.

Change4D SPLINE TEXTURE
I suppose "fun" is a relative term because creating the flag stripes with spline material in the alpha was kind of a chore. get the C4D file (R11 and R10.5)

3D in Photoshop: Simple Religious Icons Part 2
Manipulating the texture on a 3D object within Photoshop CS3 is really easy. If you know how to use the tools in Photoshop, there's really no limit to what you can do with a 3D material. Like a smart object, the 3D material is just an embedded Photoshop document. In Part 2, I check out other models which aren't as easy to break down as the geometry in the cross.

Static Noise Project in AE CS3
I'm sure there are a dozen different versions of this online - - but it was easier to make (about 5 minutes) than it was to search for a reference. The audio was created with After Effects Audio plugins, so it's all self-contained, but you'll need AE CS3 to open it.
If you want some cool looking effects for your actual video, you'll probably want to purchase either TWITCH, a new plugin from Andrew Kramer, or DAMAGE, a new plugin from DigiEffects.

What's happened to Stephen Schleicher's tutorial about depth of field and Zaxwerks Invigorator? It is under a different link, but it's the same article from 2004, which will show you how to make movies like the one below.
