"Echo Trail" is a 100% free preset for Adobe After Effects. It lets you create 3D trails of copies, or "echoes", behind any moving layer. To download, go to CreationEffects.com, and head to the Freebies page. If you download the trail, please like or comment below.
The Echo Trail can be applied to any 2D or 3D layers, including shapes, solids, text, images, footage, or precomps. When applying to footage or precomps, you have to option to have each echo pause, or freeze, when they're made. Or, you can have have the echoes play normally, or on a "progressive delay", which results in wavy movements along the echo trail. When first formed each echo inherits the transform properties of the Leader layer. The echo trail can be customized with easy controls that allow you to create dynamic trails with a variety of creative 3D movements.
The Echo Trail effect can also be used to create the popular Freeze Frame effect, where still images (or paused frames) from the video float or move into the frame and sync up with the footage.
This free effect has many creative uses, and will be a great tool for music video editors or any motion designer using After Effects! Enjoy!
