Let's TipsMake.com refer to the article how to create 3D effects and animation below!
Create 3D objects from 2D images
Photoshop can create a series of basic 3D objects using 2D layers as a starting point. After creating the 3D object, you can move it in 3D, change the display settings, add light or merge other 3D layers.

Create 3D postcards
Note: You can add 3D postcards to an existing 3D scene to create shading display surfaces and reflect other objects available in the scene.
1. Open a 2D image and select the layer you want to convert to a postcard.
2. Select 3D > New 3D Postcard From Layer .
3. (Optional) To add a 3D postcard as a plane surface to a 3D view, merge the new 3D layer with the existing 3D layer containing other 3D objects, then arrange if needed.
4. To retain the new 3D content, export the 3D layer in 3D file format or save it in PSD format.
Create 3D shapes
Depending on the type of object you choose, 3D model results may contain one or more meshes. Spherical Panorama option maps the panoramic image inside the 3D sphere.
1. Open a 2D image and select the layer you want to convert to 3D shape.
2. Select 3D > New Shape From Layer and select a shape from the menu. The shape consists of single mesh objects such as donuts, spherical or conical shapes; as well as other grid-shaped objects like cones, cubes, cylinders, soda cans or wine bottles.
Note: You can add a custom shape to the shape menu. The shape is a 3D Collada model file (.dae). To add a shape, place the Collada model file in the PresetsMeshes folder inside the Photoshop program folder.
3. (Optional) Use the Spherical Panorama option if you are using panoramic images as 2D inputs. This option converts a full 360 x 180 degree Panorama image into a 3D layer. When switching to 3D objects, you can draw Panorama areas that are often difficult to access, such as poles or straight-line positions.
4. Export 3D layer in 3D file format or save in PSD format to retain new 3D content.
Create 3D images in grid form
The New Mesh from Grayscale command converts the grayscale image into a depth map, which translates brightness values to a surface of different depths. Brighter values create floating areas on the surface, darker values create lower areas. Photoshop then applies depth maps to one of four logical geometry to create 3D models.
1. Open a 2D image and select one or more layers that you want to convert to 3D images in grid form.
2. (Optional) Convert images to grayscale mode. Select Image > Mode > Grayscale or use Image > Adjustments > Black & White to fine-tune dark-level conversion.
Note: If you use an RGB image as input when creating a grid, the green channel is used to create the depth map.
3. (Optional) Perform gray image adjustment if necessary to limit the brightness value range.
4. Select 3D > New Mesh From Grayscale , then select an option in the grid.
Photoshop creates a 3D layer in a new grid. It also creates Diffuse, Opacity and Planar Depth Map for 3D objects, using the original gray or color layer.
You can re-open Planar Depth Map as Smart Object (actually a file embedded in another file) any time you want and fix it. When saving it, the grid will be restored.
Note: The Opacity texture map does not appear in the Layer palette, because that map uses the same texture file with the Diffuse map (the original 2D layer). When two texture maps move to the same file, the file will appear only once in the Layer panel.

Create 3D animation
Using timeline Photoshop Animation, you can create 3D effects to move 3D models through space and change the display over time. You can apply animation effects to any of the following attributes of the 3D layer:
For high-quality animations, you can render each animation frame by using the Render for Final Output settings.
