Create Pro 3D Flight Paths in Google Earth Studio & After Effects — 100% FREE!
Animating curved flight paths in Google Earth Studio’s spherical (zoomed-out) view has always been a challenge. Most artists rely on expensive paid plugins like "3D Earth Connections," but in this tutorial, I’m revealing a 100% Native After Effects method to achieve the same pro results for free.
By leveraging the "Extended Create Nulls from Path" script and some clever 3D parenting, we can create perfect 3D arcs that stay locked to the globe, no matter how much your camera moves.

Plane Position Expression (Apply this to your airplane layer to make it follow the path):
layer = thisComp.layer("Path"); // Rename "Path" to your Shape Layer name
path = layer.content("Shape 1").content("Path 1").path;
trim = layer.content("Trim Paths 1").start; // This links to your Trim Paths 'Start' value
// This translates the path point to your 2D screen space
layer.toComp(path.pointOnPath(trim / 100));
Pin Position Expression (Apply this to UI elements/labels to stick them to the Start/End points):
target = thisComp.layer("Path: Path 1 [1.1.0]"); // Make sure this name matches your Start/End Null
target.toComp([0,0,0]);
