Card DanceThe Card Dance effect is available from the Adobe Web site (www.adobe.com) after you register your copy of After Effects.

For example, Card Dance can simulate an extruded pin sculpture, a crowd "doing the wave," or letters floating on the surface of a pond. ![]() Original (left) and rotation adjusted using Camera Position controls (center) and Corner Pin controls (right) ![]() Original (left), gradient layer (center), and with Card Dance applied (right) Apply Card Dance to the layer you want to use for the front of the cards.
