Roll It

Developer: Rendertom

Download Free

After Effects script that rolls a static shape or mask along a surface, including complex compound shapes.

What Roll It does

Roll It from Rendertom is an After Effects script that makes a shape or mask roll. It detects edges precisely and manages highly complex and compound shapes, working with both shapes and masks.

One limitation is that animated shapes are not supported, because the expressions involve heavy trigonometric calculations. Motion designers can use it for wheels, blobs and irregular objects that should tumble convincingly along a path.

Key features

  • Rolls shapes and masks
  • Precise edge detection
  • Handles complex and compound shapes
  • Static shapes only, not animated ones
