  • C4D, PFhoe 2 Pro – positioning objects in C4D?

    Posted by Anders Lilkaer on April 8, 2011 at 1:45 pm

    Hi!

    I need help with positionering my 3D objects correctly in C4D, after I’ve imported the Cam data from PFhoe.
    The tracking seems to be very good, the grid is totally locked to the movement of the camera etc.

    What is wrong is this:

    How should I place my elements in the shot. Right now I’m placing them on the Z axis and further down Z if they need to be distant in the image. BUT it’s like they are floating a bit off. It seems like objects that are closer to the cam, is more steady and stable.

    Should I instead of placement along the Z depth, just scaling them down, have have them just in front of the camera? But that seems odd too.

    Looking forward to your answer,

    If possible you should use the tracker nulls as a guide for distance.
