If you are a constant web surfer, you have probably noticed those great looking intros presented on some Flash websites. The same kind of intros are also included in some TV news programs or software video reviews. You may want to be able to produce such intros yourself, but unfortunately, applications that offer this functionality are usually too difficult to master and also take up a lot of system resources. Fortunately, there are programs which really work, without cluttering the system.
One of these applications is Aurora 3D Animation Maker. This Windows application allows you to create any kind of 3D text animation, which can be integrated with any kind of project. After installing and running the application, a welcome screen will be displayed, in which the user can select the animation template that he would like to use. There are numerous templates to choose from and each can be completely modified.
After selecting the desired template, the user will be able to preview it directly in the program’s interface using the integrated player. Modifying a template only requires double-clicking on the text and entering a new one. Advanced users can also modify the text movement, shadows, lights and so on.
In case the user would like to create a 3D text animation from scratch, he will be able to use multiple objects, colors, text types, frames, icons and so on. Each object can be completely modified and animated. What’s more, Aurora 3D Animation Maker allows importing 3D models from other compatible applications, like 3D Studio Max. After the project is created, the user will be able to render it either using OpenGL or DirectX and also export it to an image or video file. Aurora 3D Animation Maker supports multiple formats when saving projects and allows customizing quality settings for each of them.
Pros:
It allows you to create complex 3D text animations by using customized templates or with the help of a large object library. Besides that, animations can be directly previewed in the program’s interface. Furthermore, 3D animations can be exported to various image or graphical formats and the quality for each of them can be customized.
Cons:
Fully using the application requires some knowledge and experience in working with 3D applications.
Aurora 3D Animation Maker allows you to quickly create any kind of 3D text animation, using numerous templates and a large object library.
