Timefield 4D is an effect plugin that treats time as a shape. It takes the frames around the current moment in your footage and stacks them into a solid block made of width, height and time. You can then move a camera around that block, slice through it or spread the frames apart like cards. It is made for motion designers and video artists who want to show movement itself.

Key Features

  • Stacks nearby frames into a three dimensional block of time
  • Lets you orbit the block with the After Effects camera
  • Offers solid, translucent volume, separated slices and cross section views
  • Can remove the still background so only the moving subject leaves a trail
  • Ships with starter presets and every setting can be keyframed

How to Download

  1. Use the download button at the top of this page to get the plugin package.
  2. Install it with the aescripts and aeplugins manager app, or follow the steps in the package.
  3. Open After Effects, apply the effect to a moving clip and explore the views.

System Requirements

On a Mac it needs GPU rendering with Metal and a host app such as After Effects. Moving footage is needed, since a still image gives only identical frames.

FAQs

Which host apps does Timefield 4D support?

Its documentation covers After Effects, with OFX builds for DaVinci Resolve and Nuke. Premiere Pro is not supported.

Why does a still image look flat and empty?

The effect is built from frames over time. A still image gives a block of identical frames, so you need real movement in the shot.

Can I animate its settings?

Yes. Its settings can be keyframed, so the view and shape of the block can change across your composition.
