What It Is？

This case demonstrates how combining AI-generated icons with After Effects can achieve both full creative control and high efficiency. The entire production was completed in just three days.

The primary AI tool used was Tripo Studio, an AI-native 3D workspace designed for creators. It provides a unified interface for a wide range of 3D creation tasks—allowing users to generate, edit, and refine 3D models efficiently. This makes it an ideal tool for artists, designers, and developers.

Efficiency Comparison

Speed:
This approach saves at least 90% of the time compared to creating a 3D model from scratch.

Traditional workflow: 4–5 hours

AI-powered workflow: ~10 minutes

Cost:
It also significantly reduces expenses. 🍄

C4D: $105/month
With this AI workflow, there’s no longer a need to subscribe to C4D for lightweight 3D use cases.
