Shattered glass is easy to simulate using the AE built-in Shatter effect. In this video tutorial we walk through step by step through the process of creating this glass effect in your own After Effects video projects.įirst we’ll add the shatter effect to shape layers in After Effects.
Then, we’ll make the animation more dynamic with the After Effects virtual camera. Learn the basics of creating shattered glass in After Effects and then tweak this animation for your own custom effect: This is Evan Abrams for and today we’re going to be shattering glass in After Effects. We’ll be making use of the built-in shatter effect and you don’t even need to use external 3D programs to make it happen. So let’s get into After Effects and start breaking things. So the first thing to do in After Effects is create a new composition and we’re going to go with the HDTV 1080 24 pre-set and duration of 1 minute long, background color black, and click OK. The first thing to do is to make the actual thing we’re going to shatter.
So to do that we’re going to create a new solid and we’re just going to leave that solid as black because we’re using a very dark scene. So we’re just going to be shattering a black piece of glass, but you can use any piece you’d like. So if you use, say, like a gray, we’d use blackness of 10. And then we’ll put some text on top of it, for example, just type in the word, “glass.” Scale it up and put it in the center of the composition there.
If you want to put other things, like a texture or any type of element that you want to shatter, it could be a logo, it could be anything, make sure you put it in this first composition. So select both of those and then we’re going to go layer pre-compose, and pre-compose both of those elements.
