[NDesignation]

is it possible to export the camera-solve also for after effects ?

to have the same camera movement as in the 3d program?

For example for particles or something like that.

danke dir grüße aus Köln ;)

[vfxworld]

@NDesignation Ja, das funktioniert.

Einfach in Boujou oder Syntheyes deine Achsenauslegung anpassen und dann nach after effects exportieren.

Hi! I have a movie in avi and i want that movie as background.

I render 3d animation in 3ds max like you did in Tutorial P2 (png and alpha channel). Then i open After Effect add movie and animation to library. Then i drag&put movie and after that i put 3d animation above movie. But there is still white background with my model.

[vfxworld]

@Gobas22 sounds as if you did not output the render with alpha background, double check that.

You'll need to interprete your footage and set it to automate the background color for avoiding matting issues.

If all that does not help, render 2 versions of your video: first one with normal colors, second one with white background and every object with a white material that has self illumination to 100%, than you can set the second clip as a luma matte.

theres a better way to do this instead of keying, and matching the frame rate of the orignial video and ect. u can do it in 3ds max, just go to render>environment>click on "none" then click bitmap, then choose the file of the orginal video. that works betta

[vfxworld]

@csswafford that's the worst thing to do.

With compositing in 3ds max I'd be very careful. You have no freedom changing any parameters such as brightness change or grain/noise or scraches on the 3D object.

You're better off compositing in After Effects.

If I were you at 0:48, probably would have killed myself for that crap not working properly. Good thing there are guys like you who know what to do then. (:

@timessplitter ah fu ihr seid ja deutsche :x ich sollte mal "lesen lernen" ;D

[izvarzone]

You could also re-render teapot in jpeg with low quality to match the video, to sell effect better.
