  • Problem with BCC6 Extruded EPS in Avid

    Posted by Robert Overberg on May 5, 2010 at 7:04 pm

    First time using this effect on the new Avid Nitris DX Media Composer 4.0.5.
    I have a logo, originally a Photoshop file with several layers, that I want to make 3D.
    Opened & saved it out of Illustrator as an Illustrator 8 file. Go into Avid, put a video in the timeline, drag the BCC EXTRUDED ES icon onto the video, open, choose the EXTERNAL FILE button, navigate to the saved Illustrator file, hit open & the video in the Avid timeline disappears, showing only 4 position locators! Huh?
    Anyone know what I’m doing wrong or have a solution?
    Thanks!

    The original Photoshop file or the “saved as” illustrator file?
