VinhSon Nguyen demonstrates how to create a 3D iPhone in After Effects using the standard 3D tools available creating it so that the screen image can be replaced easily. VinSon uses the multiple layer technique to fake a 3D extrusion, and adds glossy reflections and shadows for a pretty convincing end result.
