where’s the installation information? what is this? a script? plugin? the ‘VoluMax – V4.1 Pro’ PDF that came with the purchase isnt opening and i have no idea how to install it?????!!!!!
Hello and thank you for your purchase. There is no PDF named “VoluMax – V4.1” in the package, it is a .aep After Effects project file and it is noticed everywhere on the official videohive page that you need After Effects to use VoluMax
VoluMax is a template and has no installation needed. Just open with After Effects and follow the included video tutorials, it is quite simple. If you have more questions please contact me in private using this page : https://videohive.net/user/cream-motion
Hello – I just purchased your amazing product. I mapped out my image following your steps – my only problem is, how do I get it to animate? When I exported it my image was still.
Hello and thanks for your purchase ! Before exporting make sure you see your animation in the Viewport and that you created keys or else it will be still. You have to decide how it moves. Check tutorials on YouTube “Create keys in After Effects” if you have beginner skills on AE. I hope this helped. Gaëtan.
Thank you!
Hi, can 3D text be used with Volumax? Thanks
Hello. Yes there is a composition included called text that works the same way than the objects. You can set the position in space (XYZ) and see in realtime how it moves with you picture. You can see an example in the video preview at 1:02 with the hot air balloons.
You can go even farther and extrude your text in 3D and add lights, the rendering will be slower but it works great. There are plenty of tutorials on youtube to learn you how to extrude a text in AE. Here is an example with VoluMax just for you

Cool! Tnank you very much for the example. We´re planning now a new proyect, Volumax is a serious candidate for the header, let me tell the producer of its benefits. Regards
Hi, VoluMax looks fantastic and I bought it but I am a little disappointed. The tutorials assume a pretty high level of After Effects expertise. I can use Photoshop but am just getting the hang of AE. Also, it’s a Windows file which must convert to Mac and so the interface is slightly different to the tutorials. Also, you do a lot of (fast) actions which aren’t noted and so it is easy to get lost. A step by step tutorial for slow learners would be good!
Hello and thank you for your purchase. I am sorry to hear that you are having some difficulties to follow the tutorials. I spent a lot of time to make things the simplest possible and customers seem to like the tutorials. I wouldn’t say the level is high but I understand that for someone beginning in AE it can sometimes be disturbing.
For those wondering at what the tutorials included look like here is the first one showing the overview of VoluMax : https://youtu.be/N99GpFlZP0s
And you are right…I can’t do anything for the slight differences between the Windows and Mac versions of After Effects, sorry it’s the same for all the projects on Videohive but it works the same. 
If you have any question or need assistance I will help with pleasure. Please send me a private message on my profile page if needed so I can send you screenshots or video captures to help. Gaëtan.
HI Gaëtan and thanks for the link. I will keep going and will get there in the end. It is a terrific bit of software. Thank you.
Glad to hear that ! Have fun.
Pre-sale question. I have some close-up pictures of animals , lions, bears, birds etc, can I make them slidely rotate in 3D like the human portraits? Because i only see the guidelines made for human faces. Thanks !
This is a very interesting question ! You have 2 ways to work on animals. The first one is the classic way. Open your picture in photoshop and start painting your black & white depth map. You don’t need to be super sharp but keep in mind that the more detail you give the more impressive the result will be. The second way is to use the 3D Portrait Tool on animals, of course a bird will be difficult but a monkey / Bear or even a lion can give some nice results because they have some similarities with humans (the trick would be to raise the Relax setting). There are complete video tutorials included that I am sure will give you good solutions in your case. Have Fun !
does 3d portrait allow 2 or more faces?
Hello, the 3d portrait tool allows you to work with 2 portraits directly in After Effects. But there is an indirect way for unlimited portraits by exporting your depth maps created with the 3d portrait tool to Photoshop. Then you assemble all the depth maps in Photoshop. The included tutorial shows how to export a picture of your work in the 3d Portrait tool. There is even a faster way by doing simple screenshots from AE to Photoshop to export your depth map. This way you can manage pictures with a lot of details and people.
i receive errors like..
25 :: 188 After effects: Unable allocate 0,296 MB of memory. Either decrease the memory requirements for the rendering of this frame, or install more RAM, (12803 / flatted arbitrary filter data).
5027 :: 3 After effects: Unable allocate 0,002 MB of memory. Either decrease the memory requirements for the rendering of this frame, or install more RAM, (12803 / flatted arbitrary filter data).
After effects: Unable allocate 0,000 MB of memory. Either decrease the memory requirements for the rendering of this frame, or install more RAM, (12803 / flatted arbitrary filter data).
7 :: 5 After effects error: Unable to allocate enough memory to render the current frame (4100*2300 @ 8 bpc). Either decrease memory requirements for the rendering of this frame , or install more RAM. (12805).
WHAT SHOULD I DO WHAT IS YOUR RECOMMENDATION???
Hello, you are facing a After Effects issue, this is not a problem with VoluMax. Check the Adobe forums it seems your After Effect version needs to be updated : https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1355107
hi! before i buy volumax -3d i have a question…
how to draw in 3d portrait tool if “his face” is anime
character ? for example “NARUTO”
maybe..
Hello and thanks for your interest ! VoluMax Portrait Tool works the same way on human portraits, human like cartoons or even aliens if they have 2 eyes, 2 ears, a mouth and a nose
The power of this tool is to adapt to the model. So it should work even on Naruto if you match the 3d wire on his face. I can send you the 3D Portrait Tool tutorial included in package if you want to see exactly how it works, just send me a message on my profile page: https://videohive.net/user/cream-motion
hello, is VoluMax – 3D Photo Animator compatible with the new Adobe After Effect 2017 Version?
Hello, yes of course, it works even smoother ! 
Hi, can volumax be installed on after effects “mac” platform? Also if i buy the Regular license at $53, can i use it for a paid job? Is there a limitation in how many paid jobs and in resoultion reg full hd and 4k export and also reg options in the software. It makes no sense in buying at 53 dollars just for my own pleasure of using the software. The terms associated with your sale are confusing. Am guessing how you would know that am charging clients with a regular license.
Hello, you are right the Envato licensing terms are a bit confusing for Toolkits. You can use VoluMax Pro for as many pictures as you like – all with just one licence. If you are creating these pictures only for personal use (not selling them, youtube channel for example) you can just get the regular licence and 1 license = 1 person. Now if you want to sell your work and make profit you should normally buy the extended license and you can use it for any futur client.
VoluMax works on PC and Mac on After effects CS6 and upper.
Hi! Does this tempate works for CS5.5?
No I am sorry, only from CS6.
CS5.5 isn’t advanced enough for all the effects used in VoluMax Pro version. You can use a 30 days trial of After effects maybe ? http://www.adobe.com/downloads.html
Hi, a friend of mine had the very old Version of this one were you paint on the picture in After Effects with greyscale variations to get the 3D effect. However, there is a problem with the effects only running for 5 seconds. If you enhance your composition over that time, the Flare Effects for example just disappear. How do I manage to also extend the timespan of the effects over the initial 5 seconds?
Regards
Hello. The solution is to say to your friend to update his version on videohive. Updates are free and actual version is 1 minute long.
hello, I would like to see the train Photoshop tutorial. Where can I see it? Can I see home Photoshop tutorial? I would like to see a Photoshop tutorial about the house, train or things.
Hello and thanks for your purchase ! Check in the Tutorials folder, you have 10 video tutorials / tips and technics for Photoshop and After Effects included. Everything is there 
Every time I use the easy paint tool in Photoshop There is a selectionner et maquer message in the middle of the job. What’s the problem? I did everything according to the tutorial.
Nature photography is easy to paint with gray, There are no tutorials on how to paint objects (trains, cars, etc.). Are there tutorials that are not nature pictures or people pictures?
Okay ! I didn’t understand your question in the first place. Of course creating depth maps for objects / cars / trains is possible manually or by using the Photoshop Easy Paint Tool. You can see an example at 58” in the preview video on the plane. I did a lot of “objects & architecture scenes” with VoluMax for clients of mine. Please send me a mail on my profile page so I can send you examples (pictures + depth maps) and find a solution to your error message in Photoshop (it seems you forgot a step). https://videohive.net/user/cream-motion
What background music did you use in version 2-3 video? link( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-HklmTrDyI )
Check DAVIDYAN on Audio Jungle : https://audiojungle.net/user/davidyan/portfolio
Can’t remember the name of the music. sorry.
Seriously, great job with this. I was trying to figure out a way to breathe life into the stock images I use for projects, because a lot of people in my field use very similar images. Doing this technique manually would take me 2 hours(if I really wanted to smooth out the motions). Your stuff helped me cut that time to 20 minutes and you added lens flares/atmospherics!! Now I can focus on how I want my stuff to move without continuously scaling my layers/moving my camera in z-space. Although, I would love to be able to change my background to black/white while my focus object stays color. Maybe in the next version?! Great work though & much appreciated!!
Thanks for your purchase and feedback ! You can convert your background in B&W and keep objects in color, or maybe I don’t underdand what you want to achieve ? 
If you have 5 minutes I would be glad to have a review from you if you appreciate the template ( https://videohive.net/downloads ) It is very important for us authors.
Hi I am very happy with the purchase, but can u seend me an update to make it longer than 5 seconds. dont know how to make it longer thanks. my email is eduardodesign4@gmail.com
Hello and thank you for your interest, VoluMax Pro 4.1 Main Composition is actually 1 minute long. If you don’t have this version I invite you to go in your download panel and download the latest version : https://videohive.net/downloads
Hi – what does the new update provide/fix? Thanks for a great product!
Hello. V4.1 Pro : Added three 3D Objects / Speed Optimizations / Added FAQ and “Advanced Technics” documentation.
Your picture part, the picture comes out in small little square, what is the problem, do not work…
Hello and thanks for your purchase. I am not sure to understand your problem. Please can you write me here : https://videohive.net/user/cream-motion . So we can exchange screenshots if needed.
after effect: this project must be converted from versiyon 11.0.4 (windows 64). The original file will be unchanged
problem.
This is a normal message saying VoluMax is a Cs6 version and it will be converted to your After effects version.
Ok solved problem, pc problem

Ok glad to hear that !
Have fun ! Gaëtan.
