Ok in this discussion of after effects we're going to look at some more of the, some of the more advanced features of after effects such as the 3D layers, and once you convert an image to a 3D layer it allows you to access all kinds of interesting effects and items in the after effects palette. So let's begin by looking at our composition window and you'll notice that there are four screens here and they're red. What I've done is I've changed the background to red so that we can see the effect of moving in 3D space a little better against the black background that's kind of hard to see. The other thing I've done is I've activated the three other views of the composition window, and you do that by going to the bottom of the composition window and selecting, doing the drop down menu, and selecting either one, two, or four views. I've selected four views on the bottom and you'll see how this becomes important a little later.
