We had to make a dynamic sphere for one of our projects. Maybe some people would say that it takes way too much effort at the development stage, so why bother wasting time. Actually, we frequently hear these sorts of comments about how the “poor” developers will struggle to make this or that effect. This challenge has never daunted us, and, if anything, it adds great variety to the sort of routine work so many people are stuck with because they lack creativity.

Making this effect required some prep work, which we’ll talk about in this master class. We’ll unpack all the details of the UI stage, working in Blender and After Effects.
