    I am trying to add a Back Face to a Basic 3D filter on Motion 2. I can not figure out how to do this. I have the start image, add the basic 3d filter, but then I don’t know how to designate a back face. Any suggestions?

    There should be an image well in the properties of the 3D filter for the back face image.

    It’s in the Inspector properties for the filter.

    Usually this is done by opening the Dashboard and dragging the movie or image clip you want from the Layers tab into the “Back Face” image well. You can do the same from the Inspector, too.

    There’s also an even quicker shortcut – drag the movie or image clip directly onto the Basic 3D filter in the Layers or Timeline window. This sets the source of the 1st image well it encounters. This trick works with filters, behaviors, and image masks – basically anything that requires a second source.
