Bring your picture to life and turn 2D photos to 3D with after effects - easy image animation

In this easy tutorial from flomotion for after effects you will learn how to animate a still image, a picture or a photo (using a depth matte) to bring it to life and make it look like it was shot with a camera.
You will learn how to set up a luma image: basically you will convert your 2d still image into a black and white image, where everything that is closer to the camera is brighter.
Then you will use that depth layer wihtin the displacement map effect to animate it in 3d space.
You can also animate depth of field with that technique

Create a 3D effect out of a 2d image.

You will learn how to use:
displacement map effect
levels effect
gradient ramp

Works in each version of after effects.
