Hi, it works only with cc?thanks
Hello. No, Volumax works on CS6 and higher versions of after effects.
Hi, can I buy it for doing any footage for stock like shutterstock ?
Hi Pilin, this is a great Idea ( if the pictures are from you of course). For the licence choice I am not sure to be honest… I am OK if you use the standard licence but only Envato can answer if it will be authorized.
The extended license might be needed.

Hello, I’m interested in your great product. But I don’t understand, if I buy regular license, will I be able to use your product in another pc if I decide to change it? Or I can use it only in one pc? thanks:)
Hi and thank you for your interest. With regular license you will be able to you use it on any computer you want, but it will be your personal version and you will be the only one authorized to use it.
If you have any other question feel free to ask.
Have fun ! Gaëtan
Hi there & cheers! My input, I find that you started your “Introduction & Set Up” Tutorial long way ahead of the actual start your average client needs. Is there something we need to do before bringing the image into photoshop? Is there a filter or plug-in that needs to be installed?
Hi and Thanks for your purchase ! Don’t worry, the first video “Introduction & Setup” is not a tutorial, it’s a fast overview of VoluMax and how it works.It shows you the workflow in After Effects and all the possibilities.
The other videos are short tutorials showing you the complete workflow and how to get nice results.
There is no plugin to install and you can work in Photoshop or After Effects, check the other videos

If you have any question just use the mail on my profile page so I can respond with screenshots / pictures or videos.

Does volumax pro not have some of the previous versions effects (comic) for example thanks
Hello, I decided to remove the comics / illustration effect for optimisation reasons. Things are smoother without and customers didn’t use it much. It’s the only thing that was removed, Pro version adds a lot of new stuff
Gaëtan.
Ok got it.. Is there a way that i can still use it? is it posible to import from the previous version?
thanks
Send me a mail (on my profile) I will send it to you. Gaëtan.
Hi guys, i have a question maybe not a so smart one, i am new to after effects and i would like to purchase VoluMax – 3D Photo Animator to create animated pictures, the end result would be a video right? I mean when i use VoluMax – 3D Photo Animator to animate a picture i would get a video, how large is the video going to be aprox.? Can i use that video on a website, let’s say in a slider? How can i optimize that video so it is not too large to make my site too slow? Thanks alot.
Hello and thank you for your interest !
There are no stupid questions and you are right, VoluMax creates videos that can be used on any device or website. The video can be any size you need, very large in 4k or very small for mobile by using different compression presets, sizes or framerate in Adobe Media Encoder. Adobe Media Encoder is used by AE and Adobe Premiere to export and VoluMax Pro includes an export tutorial to guide you.
Take a look to this official Adobe PDF : http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/education/pdfs/edu-learn-encode-video-multiple-devices.pdfGaëtan
been going through all the comments on the pages, and I understand what is needed to acomplish the wanted end result. However; in your description on the main sales page as well as in your video you state to have a “3D Portrait Tool” making that process easier, yet it seem like there are several people in your comments page saying that doing portraits are hard. Is there in fact this “3D Portrait Tool”
Hello and thanks for your interest. The 3d portrait tool is only 2 weeks old and appeared with the Pro update.
Portraits were a bit challenging to paint in the older versions and that’s why I created this tool. You can now have really nice results in couple of minutes, the process is quite simple and fun to achieve.
I have to add some online tutorials on YouTube so customers can see the hole process live before buying.
Check this amazing trailer done for French TV last week with VoluMax 3D Portrait Tool by ATelevision agency : https://youtu.be/3AC61sZXav0 http://www.agencetelevision.com/We were in touch by mail on this project.
I hope I answered to your questions.
All the best. Gaëtan.
d’accord, alors le “Pro Update” est la version actuelle que vous vendez.
Oui !
The Pro update is the actual version sold on Videohive, all future updates are free.
acheté !!
Merci ! Thanks for your purchase ! If you have any question feel free to ask by email (on my profile page).
Have Fun. Gaëtan
I dont see a tutorial of how to put lets say a person in a portrait. Like what you did with the parachute guys in the video promo
I think the tutorials are incomplete. In the tutorials i dont find anywhere what is most important for me, and the main reason i purchase it, and that is… How to do the effects like the ones you have of the 2 guys on parachute, or how did you create the girl and background all together in the Atmospheric tutorial. (Not the atmospheric tutorial but the effects of the girl).
Mostly what i see are effects of places but nothing with people. And i bought it today, because this was essential for me to work on today.
Hello shirux, I am very surprised by your message because the effects you want to achieve are the main reason why I created VoluMax Pro: to do them easely in minutes !
Let’s find a solution together.
“How to achieve the the 2 guys on parachute or girl on background ” :
Did you watch tutorial named : “06 – Text & Objects” ? I am not sure… 
It is a complete tutorial to explain you how to achieve the scene in the video preview with the 2 hot air baloons and the HELLO WORLD text (at 1:02) And this is exaclty what you want to do ! A background + 2 objects (with auto displacement for volume if needed) + Text
The girl with the yellow jacket is done that way too, I created a background and she is in Object 1 (You can add a Depth Map Painting on her or even use the Auto Depth Map button wich works 90% of the time), no rocket science here ! 
There is even a bonus video named “10 – Case Study – The Turtle” that explains step by step how I did the underwater scene with the turtle on a background…
Let’s continue this discussion by mail (boutet.gaetan @ gmail.com) so Ican help you with screenshots or video captures and you can also send me screenshots of your pictures so I can help you.
Keep in mind that the video preview was done with VoluMax Pro so there is no reason you can’t do as good as me !
Gaëtan
In that case since you are offering video. please send me a video tutorial (since you didnt included in the tutorial) in the tutorial is not shown how to use this tool with people Full body, for example how did you do it with the astronaut? ( I mean every step from the start) How did you do it with the Girl with the yellow rain coat (The entire process) because that is what you selling those effects.
And i dont see anywhere any explanation of how did you do that. And since you are offering a video and support for that i will await for that support.
You say you have hours of tutorials, but unfortunately those specifics are not in there.
Please let me know when can i get the instructions that you offer.
Thank you
Once again let’s do this by mail because I can’t offer you Screenshot or Video support here : boutet.gaetan @ gmail.com
But I am still going to try to answer you here again : The process is the same if you use a Hot Air Baloon / An astronaut / A girl in raincoat / A turtle / a Paraglider…and is the same for any photo animator :
1- Separate your astronaut from background using Photoshop (or AE) for example by using the lasso tool so it’s on a transparent background.
2- Save background (without astronaut) and Astronaut (transparent background) in 2 separate files.
3- Import background in “My Picture” Composition in AE
4- Import Astronaut in “Object 1” Composition in AE
And that’s all…3 minutes of work time normally. This is exactly what is explained many times in tutorials #1 / #6 and #10
There is no reason you can’t get it to work, this isn’t difficult and no customers told me tutorials weren’t complete, I spent a lot of time on them so everybody can do it.
Please send me a email here :boutet.gaetan @ gmail.com if you need further assistance. This is the place for comments not full assistance. Thank you.
I love your project. But can you tell me the difference between yours and Photo Motion Pro? I want to make a decision today. thx
Well …I am going to answer the simplest possible. I think you can do a lot of things with Photo motion, its a good template but if you want to push the 3d impression to its maximum, like if you used a 3d software, use VoluMax Pro. The wow effect will be more intense, check the video previews one more time and you will know what I am talking about. Volumax is much better on 3d Portraits. And there is complete support in the work process with Volumax with 90 minutes of tutorial. And if you have questions I can answer by mail 7/7. Have fun ! Gaëtan.
Ok My man. You convinced me. I just bought yours. Thanks
I am glad to hear that ! Thanks for your purchase shirux. Gaëtan.
This project is one of top 3 After Effects templates ever seen any where. 5 STARS PROJECT
Wow, thanks Zeinab ! 
Hi, I recently purchased this. It’s already amazing and is really cool. I’m having a few issues though. I’ve watched your tutorials but not everything is incredibly clear.
1. Is there a simple and easier way to map a photo you import in AF? I use the Photoshop way but can never get my map as detailed as yours.
2. Is there a 1080p version? I know you said you can just adjust the resolution to quarter. But that is only for when you’re editing. It will still render out in 4k. I would like the render to be in 1080p, but since your main comp is standard 4k and your comp “your picture, your displacement map, and zone protect” are all a different sized to 4100 by 2300. I’m guessing this is to avoid black lines on your main comp.
But what would the conversion be to make the main composition 1080 by 1920 and your other three compositions to a resolution to make sure there are no black lines but not there incredibly big size?
Not looking at rendering out in 4k and then convert the video to 1080p, just to clarify.
Thanks for your time and I look forward to a reply! 
First of all thank you for your purchase AK49_Logan_907 and for your enthusiasm using VoluMax Pro. I am going to answer your questions :
1- First of all you don’t need to paint detailed pictures to get a nice 3D effect.This is real, not marketing
: http://gifyu.com/images/VolumaxPro-Paint.gif
To paint depth maps I always use Photoshop because I love this software, like in the tutorial included I use the brush and lasso to have something smooth and fast. Then I add some detail if needed. When I work on very detailed pictures (like the desert picture with hot air baloons) I use the new Photoshop Easy Paint Tool included. Adding more detail will increase a bit the 3D impression, I like using Dodge and Burn tools for extra details https://goo.gl/cDb4b8 , they are easy and fast to use.
But if you are asking me : “is there an easy automatic way to do this ?” I have to answer no.
In my opinion VoluMax Pro is the most detailed and immersive 3D template on Videohive today, but nothing is magic, you have to tell the software where are the objects / mountains / buildings… only an AI could do that one day ? 
2- Adjusting the resolution to 1/4 or automatic is only for the viewport, to work smoothly in realtime like in video preview, and that is a smart advice for all your projects in AE.
Volumax is in 4k but that does’t impact viewport or export speed, everything is optimized to go fast and After effects is very smart with HD pictures nowadays. The advantage working with 4K compositions here is to get extra detail and sharpness in the 3D Effects without loosing speed
Do not export in 4k if not needed ! Like any project in AE it is going to be long, exporting in 1080p for example will go 4 times faster. I never waited more than 1 to 4 minutes for an export with VoluMax. Take a look to the export tutorial included once again to learn how to use Adobe Media Encoder in 1080p.
I hope I answered to your questions, if you have any other just use the mail you can find on my profile page, it is more comfortable and I can send you screenshots if needed.
Glad you are liking the product, have fun ! Gaëtan
Hi if it is hard to make then i can refund ? i am not expert of ae can you give me hint how i can edit this project?
I am sorry but I am not able to do refunds… But Envato can. You will have to see with them but I am not sure this will work…
VoluMax is not the simplest template on videohive, it’s a complete toolkit, but I you can have great results without behing an expert.
There are 10 Tutorials included (more than 90 minutes) explaining all the steps for beginner to experts and examples too.
I am sure you will be able to have fun with VoluMax 
And if there is a problem you can mail me 7/7, I will help you the best I can.
Gaëtan
just buy it let’s see what happened
can you add subtitle in videos so i can understand easily because my language is not english
what’s your email so i can contact you
Thanks for your Purchase !
There are 6,910 languages on earth … wich one do you want ? 
Just jocking, I cannot do subtiltles because I don’t speak more than French and English.
You can contact me by mail here on my profile : https://videohive.net/user/cream-motionI just want english subtitle in videos
I am sorry but you are asking me to subtilte more than 90 minutes of movie that are already spoken in english audio. It would take me days to do that and wouldn’t be very useful. Sorry for that. If you have questions just send me a mail, I will do my best to help you.
Amazing project!
Thank you !
Excellent work!!!
Thanks !
Simply amazing! from simple to detail Pro version. Especially 3D portrait tool, you can actually sell it as separate template but you didn’t and instead benefit us as part of Pro package! Long awaited update but totally worthy, you have my support and respect !!
Thank you for the kind words Changui! And sorry for the long delay to release this version. I past almost the last 2 months working full time on this
Thanks for your ideas and feedback, have fun !
