Learn how to create Realistic 3D Glass Motion Graphics in After Effects with this Advanced Tutorial. We will explore glass effects with stunning refraction and dispersion—created entirely in After Effects! In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to push AE beyond its limits to craft jaw-dropping glass visuals that look like they were rendered in a high-end 3D program.
Whether you’re working on motion graphics, title animations, or eye-catching visual effects, this technique will transform your workflow and help you achieve professional, studio-quality results. Best of all? No extra plugins or 3D software required.
