To create a "solid paper" effect, specifically a using industry-standard tools, you can follow this structured process often used in motion graphics. 1. Set Up the Base Composition
: Set the "Texture Layer" of your effect to the paper composition you created in Step 1. 3. Animate the "Crumple" Adjust Geometry : Increase the vertices (e.g., ) to allow the mesh to bend smoothly.
: In your main project composition, create a solid layer with a gradient ramp to serve as the background.
: Animate parameters like Rotate Y , Bend X , and Amplitude over roughly 1.5 seconds to simulate the paper unfolding or crumpling.
