In illustrator I have a logo that I want to animate in 3D. Now, the logo has already 3D shapes made with the Extrude tool inside Illustrator. Inside that tool you can rotate your shape in 3D space. I rotated with the following coordinates:

X: -45°
Y: 35°
Z: -30°

Now to animate it in After Effects, I imported the flat shape and tried to rotate it in the same way with the same coordinates. The result comes out completely different (The black B should match the white one):



How is this possible and how do I fix it?

There aren't true 3D shapes in Illustrator. It only outputs 2D. To rotate a 3D object in AE it must be rendered in a 3d drafting program. Sketch up is free and easy to learn but I am not sure if it exports anything that will retain 3D in AE.
