  • 3D still perspective moves (a la Miller High Life ads)

    Posted by Rich Tencza on December 31, 2005 at 5:14 am

    I have hi-rez stills layered into a subject and background.
    I’m looking to simulate the Miller High Life spots/The Kid Stays in the Picture look.
    What would be the best way to simulate this?

    I thought simple…..camera…..null object….parent camera to null…..but I can’t get the layers to move how you think they would…staggered slightly at different rates to give slightly different perspectives as you pan or scale. What am I doing wrong?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Aye….there might be the rub.
    I figured it was something simple like that that I was forgetting,
    I’ll give it a try. Thanks Chris!

    Great. Now of course since they have ‘depth’ you can turn on your ‘Depth of field’ effect and use the focus to bring the viewer’s eye to where you want.
