Import motion spline/path from C4D or other 3D program?
Posted by Erik Mickelson on May 24, 2007 at 3:27 pmImport motion spline/path from C4D or other 3D program? Somebody please do a test! Inquiring minds want to know.

May 25, 2007 at 1:57 amNo, that is not what I mean. I mean a motion path to use with the new and improved 3D space in Apple Motion. What I like to do is create a spline primative in C4D then import the path to AE and either use that path for a camera fly-through or set a layer to follow the path or set Particular to follow the path or make a light follow the path or make a stroke follow the path or have Vegas go down the path or parent a layer to the path and have Shine use that layer for a travelling light show or, or, or……Can Motion import a spline path from C4D? Can anyone test this?

May 25, 2007 at 2:17 pmThat would be knd of cool too – Illustrator paths. The whole 3D space thing(z-depth) is just really hard to control without using spline generators found in 3D programs. Ae is not the most intuitive when it comes to 3D space movement either, that’s why it is sooo nice to import motion paths… it’s all about z-depth and seting up the path.
