Nancy Eperjesy (mettle.com) shows us how to use mettle ShapeShifter AE and Trapcode Soundkeys to generate an Audioreactive animation in After Effects. ShapeShifter Ae allows you to create 3D objects directly in After Effects from After Effects shapes and layer masks. So this complex-looking animation is actually quite simple to put together using ShapeShifter features combined with basic tools in Ae. The animation uses a Displacement Map which allows for a completely customizable technique.
This tutorial is a continuation of "After Effects 3D Shape Morphing Tutorial" vimeo.com/122014055
Nancy uses these easy techniques with impressive results! She also shows how to add custom audio sync, modify the displacement map, and details that can make a difference, like animating the reflection map, and adding an overall X rotation to tie all the movements together.
