Japan Map Kit

Japan Map Kit is a handy After Effects project that’s an invaluable addition to your library of motion graphics assets. The project is made up of all 47 prefectures of Japan, individually masked and separated onto 3D layers… so you can scale, position, hide, animate and alter as required.

Use a photo, video or logo as your main asset to represent the country. Add a background and you’re ready to render! Use the included animation of all the prefectures combining, or animate the camera and the individual prefectures to tell your own story. Also includes map markers. Show the location of cities, landmarks, outlets or areas of interest. Animate and color the markers and the map to match your branding. Use as few or as many as you need to show multiple locations across Japan.

Great for infographics, news items, documentaries, corporate videos and commercials. The project has been created in 4K resolution, but you can easily change the output to 2K, 1080p or 720p when rendering. Why spend hours, if not days, masking out all the individual prefectures and islands, when Japan Map Kit is all set up and ready to go!

Please note that aside from the main animation of all of the prefectures combining, all of the animations in the preview video are just ‘serving suggestions’, and are not included. The still images and videos used (aside from the Japanese Flag – which is just made up of solids) are not included either. Just add the perfect footage and photos and you’re good to go!
