Plugin Everything - Extrude For After Effects F... [ 2026 Release ]

If you charge by the hour, this plugin pays for itself within a single project. The hours you will save waiting for previews and re-rendering misaligned bevels will amount to days over a year.

: Robustly handles self-intersecting paths and variable fonts. Plugin Everything ⚠️ Known Limitations Motion Blur : Must be applied as a post-process using effects like CC Force Motion Blur Depth of Field

You can manually draw a curve that defines the profile of the edge of your 3D object. Want a sharp 45-degree chamfer? Draw a straight diagonal line. Want a stepped, architectural look? Draw a stair-step curve. Want a rounded bubble edge? Draw a parabola curve.

Extrudes paths uniformly along a linear X/Y trajectory to mimic classic flat-design isometric thickness. Plugin Everything - Extrude for After Effects F...

Designed to leverage your GPU for blazing-fast render speeds, making complex 3D scenes practical.

Extrude doesn't exist in a vacuum. It plays nicely with the rest of Plugin Everything's suite, specifically (for frame-by-frame control) and "Shatter" (for destruction).

Creating beautiful 3D text and shapes inside Adobe After Effects has historically been a balancing act. Motion designers have long had to choose between slow ray-traced renderers, clunky third-party 3D integrations, or hacky methods involving stacking dozens of 2.5D layers that grind compositions to a halt. If you charge by the hour, this plugin

: While compatible with AE cameras, the plugin does not natively render camera-based depth of field.

Built for modern workflows, the plugin is GPU accelerated and fully supports 32 bits per channel (32bpc) for high-fidelity results. It is also native to and supports Multi-Frame Rendering (MFR) for faster previews and exports. Creative Combinations

It is significantly easier to edit text, change fonts, or use text animators with Extrude compared to navigating through C4D scene structures. Best Use Cases

Extrude is a GPU-accelerated plugin for After Effects designed to turn 2D layers into 3D objects. It handles the heavy lifting of calculating geometry, shading, and rendering within the AE environment.
