Earth Map Connections is an advanced toolkit based on an After Effects project controlled by a powerful script.
With Earth Map Connections you can easily place infinite points of interest on an Earth map and create 3D connection lines.
The included script is the heart of the project because it gives all instructions to the project so you don’t need to create, delete or modify any keyframe: everything will be created and modified by the script!
CONNECTION LINES:
You can create sequential connections or multiple connections from the same point, change the speed for each connection line, change its height, width and color.
CAMERA ANIMATION:
Another great function is the automatic camera animation: you don’t need to move the camera manually to create the animation, through the script you just have to select the point of interest, adjust the angle of the camera with sliders and the annoying and frustrating task of manual camera positioning will be completely replaced with a very efficient automatic camera movement!
COUNTRIES HIGHLIGHT
The Earth Map Connections also includes a list box with all countries of the World.
If you want to highlight one or more countries at a specific time you just have to select them from the list and press the highlight button.
In addition to the world countries you also can highlight the 50 United States.
PINS AND INFORMATION TABS:
The script also allows you to replace the pin style for each location with just a click. The project includes 10 styles:
Furthermore you can add an information tab on each point, the project includes up to 60 styles subdivided in
Call-outs with 1 text line (title)
Call-outs with 2 text lines (title + subtitle)
Info Panels (title + description)
Image Tabs (title + description + image or video)
Each information tab contains a control panel for customizing all colors!
SPEED UP YOUR WORKFLOW
Earth Map Connections uses a high resolution map to keep all details, furthermore all 3D lines are created using hard calculations, therefore the workflow could sometimes be slow.
In order to prevent this issue, the script implements a very useful function to increase the speed of the ram preview by 70%, so you will be able to create your customized animation without lag or excessive delays.
