ElectricRain has been one of my favorite 3D tools for web content (though I rarely have call to use it). Now, they’ve made things even easier with the introduction of Swift3D PS, a plugin for Photoshop CS4 Extended. Here’s why eRain says you need it:
- Create, bevel and extrude 3D text from any font in seconds.
- Quickly create extrusions and 3D lathe objects with a bezier pen tool.
- Extend Photoshop’s workflow with After Effects CS4 Live 3D view.
- Import, extrude and bevel existing 2D vector artwork from Illustrator or Flash.
- Simplify 3D scene creation with targeted cameras & lighting.
- Extraordinary price backed by a money-back guarantee
- Having fun designing again…priceless!
I love that new tools are geared toward integrating across several products. This trend has been helping artists focus on creation more than tool work flow, though the later is still very important. Expect a deluge of ‘new’ effects and looks to come from this, but be sure to look deeper to find the real talent wielding these instruments of design.
