Aescripts – Bevelizer v1.0

Bevelizer is a 3D bevel/chamfer plugin for After Effects that turns flat shapes (like text, vectors, logos, etc.) into objects with 3D-style beveled edges and depth shading — all rendered in real-time inside After Effects.

• Real-Time GPU-Accelerated Rendering — Uses CUDA (NVIDIA) and Metal (Apple) to deliver smooth feedback (≈60 fps at 1080p).
• 82 Matcap Materials — Includes a large gallery of preset material environments (e.g., crystals, matte, metallic, plastic, stylized).
• Custom Matcap Creation — A companion web tool lets you make your own matcap textures.
• Bezier Curve Bevel Editor — Shape the profile of the bevel precisely with up to 16 control points.
• Full Animation Control — Every parameter can be keyframed (bevel size, height, orientation, environment rotation).
• Multiple Edge Detection Modes:
  • Luma — based on brightness (good for footage)
  • Alpha — based on transparency (clean shapes)
  • Height Map — uses luminance for directional depth effects.
