  Dolly – Keep Background Still

  Posted by Ryan Edwards on May 8, 2013 at 1:24 pm

  I would really appreciate some advice….

  I’m doing a motion graphic intro with Words flying past the camera – so I’m using the dolly effect.

  How do I keep the Background layer still? (remove the dolly effect from this layer?)

  Thank you in advance

  Put it in a 2D group. 2D groups are not affected by cameras or lights.

  You are so awesome. Thanks, it worked.

  For those who don’t know you turn a 3d group into a 2d group simply by clicking the icon next to the tiny lock in the group block.
