Hi Adam, the problem is that the MoGraph Selection doesn't appear to work with a cloner inside a cloner. My project is based off a radial cloner of floating advertisements and having that placed withi

Hey there Brian. Well, all those months ago my solution got a fairly satisfying effect, but I think I never got the gist of your post or even read it correctly since you said it never mentioned a trac

C4d and AE framerates not matching- still
by Brett Celinski 1 year ago
I've seen past posts on this that mainly went unresolved or had workarounds. It seems that this framerate thing just doesn't work too well or is anything but straightforward. I have a scene in C4d tha

Re: C4d and AE framerates not matching- still
by Richard Dunstan 1 year ago
The issue may stem from the fact that AE will import image sequences at 30fps by default, you will have to interperate footage 1st to set the correct frame rate, or change the default in your preferen

Hi there. I am working on a 10 second camera animation through a long sweep nurbs tunnel. The motion I am aiming for is a "0-to-60" type feel and to always have an 'infinite' look to the sweep nurbs t

I am having a similar problem. I am using a linear array of radial cloners in a tunnel formation. I have a multi shader but it appears to sort the same textures close to one another. I have a random e

C4d and AE framerates not matching
by Brett Celinski 1 year ago
I have a scene in C4d that was made to work to remapped AE footage. I imported the AE footage into c4d and made it an animated texture just to use as a reference to adjust the c4d animation's keyframe

Here was my solution for this: In the timeline hit alt+a, go to View Goto Main Level. Select the keys in the 'Summary' portion at the top and move them to the beginning of the timeline. Then choose "E

Hey Cow. I am working on a shot of a "matrix" style scifi video. The shot is a greenscreen with the actor's hands in front of the camera, from the POV of the actor, as if they were looking at a comput

Thanks Tudor! All I was aiming for is to have a reference point so the elements appear to exist in the same perspective as the actor etc. But I realized that this is a still shot with no camera moveme

You have the Form effect applied to a 2d layer, right Make sure the layer is the same size and pixel aspec ratio as your comp. If that's all correct, what exactly are you trying to do Are you trying t
