What It Does
Transformer 3 handles layer transformation and animation tasks that would normally require manual keyframing or expressions. Cut footage into mask-based shapes, distribute layers in 3D space, build animated carousels, or apply preset transform animations. It targets motion designers who need repeatable transform workflows.
Key Features
Arc motion. Animate layers along circular paths with rotation radius and arc angle controls, useful for carousel-style animations or orbital motion.
Cutter. Slice footage into pieces based on mask shapes. Draw any mask, run Cutter, and the layer splits into separate pieces matching your masks.
Sequence to Keyframes. Convert sequential layer timing into keyframe animations. Good for stagger effects or converting duplicated layers into a single animated layer.
Save and Load animations. Store transform animation setups as reusable presets. Apply the same rotation, position, or scale animation across multiple projects without rebuilding keyframes.
Magnetize. Snap layers to alignment positions or other layers. Reduces manual positioning for grid layouts or multi-screen compositions.
Multi FX Selector. Edit transform properties across multiple layers simultaneously. Change position, rotation, or scale values for entire layer groups at once.
49 presets included. Pre-built transform animations you can apply directly. The preset browser lets you adjust animation speed before applying.
Transform Pack integration. Previously sold separately, now bundled in version 3.
Who It’s For
Motion designers working with multi-layer compositions, title sequences, or product showcases. If you frequently build screen walls, carousels, or staggered layer animations, Transformer 3 reduces the manual keyframing. Useful for anyone who reuses similar transform patterns across projects.
