In this tutorial I'll show you how to create the effects where a camera goes inside a persons body; similar to the cool effect seen on House MD tuesdays on FOX :)
This is a comprehensive 3 Part tutorial:

Remember, this is a free tutorial and if you prefer to use a different program for the 3D part, go ahead just don't bug me about it, I need a nap.
Now, if you really want to say thank you...

Of all the ways to create 3D text in After Effects this has to be one of the bests. Using some very ingenious scripting, Maltaannon figured a way to make the Shapes in After Effects CS3 extrude into 3D space.
It even comes with a handy preset to make things even easier. Maltaannon was working on this ingenious project for several weeks before I released my 3D Text Tutorials so it was really well thought out and comprehensive. Keep an eye on this guy he is a crafty one.
I don't have any practical experience with Maya, but our Video Copilot friend Jesse does. Check out his great tutorial on creating 3D text in Maya. Be sure to thank him for his time.
You are seeing an actual screen shot of the new Video Copilot plugin Twitch. This little idea has come a long way and is really starting to sizzle. Initially an FFX preset for After Effect only, the concept is now a real Plug-In!
What this means is that you will be able to use Twitch with almost any FXplug application such as: After Effects (+mac Universal), Premiere Pro, Final Cut, Motion, and several others too.
Of course, I couldn't do all of this myself and so I have partnered with a very talented developer that is helping bring this project to life. He also offers capabilities that weren't available in the FFX preset format, which means the feature list has improved and the speed and power is incredible.
We are working very hard on this project and hope to see it available soon. With all the new features and benefits of the Plug-in architecture, I hope you guys understand a small price increase from what was originally planned. With the new Plug-in developer and necessary testing for outside software hosts like Final Cut and Premiere; it's no longer just a 'weekend project'. I can assure you that it will be under $49 and I'm trying my hardest to keep it as low as possible.
After realizing the possibilities of multi-software Plug-in and new features just not possible as a preset, I knew that creating an actual plug-in was the only way to make this product longer lasting and more valuable to everyone.
I can't wait to start using it more and showing off all the new stuff. More info coming soon.
UPDATE: Here is a screen shot of the Effects Panel:
It can be done in Cinema 4D too. Here is another tutorial that quickly shows the same techniques for creating 3D using Maxxon Cinema 4D. Of course, we'll get into more integration with After Effects soon, but those kind of tutorials have to be planned out a little more. Don't pretend for a second that these tutorials are just random, we have surprises for you all the time. We're like the website that loves you for who you are.
Wow! You must be excited to see new tutorials everyday. You probably want to support us right now by buying our great DVDs. Good Idea :)
