3 D Shapes with Shape Layers, No Plugins, After Effects Tutorial

Impossible to create a 3D Cube, 3D Sphere or a 3D Pyramide just with Shape Layers in After Effects And without a 3D Stroke plugin This really cool tip from Motion Design School inspired me to create 3D Objects with shape layer strokes only: Although path points can only be moved in 2 dimensions I figured out a cheat to put them into 3D space. The good thing about it is that you can still use the path operators like wiggle path, trim path or repeater.
