this is really ment for drawing and design. 3d will see it there, and he can do anything in swift.

this is the 3d he spoke of .....the Man....the Myth.......oh excuse me

Ok this is a pretty simple effect. First create a plane that spans your camera view (or as big as you want it). Have your shapes start out below the plane (out of site) then animate them up. To do that lil cut out effect you have to animate an extrusion. This uses the extrusion editor.

Let me know if you need a better explanation.

3d is 3d-iva. the master pro of the drawing and design forum. you cannot move threads yourself, you need a mod too, thats why kit did it.
