    Hi

    I am working on a short intro for someone and I am mostly done but I am having an issue getting a reflection on the blue part of the model. When the camera is at an angle the first time you see it the reflections are there are look ok, but in the last shot when it pulls out no matter where I arrange my lights I can’t get a nice reflection on the blue part in the middle. Any suggestion on a way to accomplish this….I have included a link so you can see the project in current form. Still working on timing for a few things but its mostly done.

    Create a object matte and do it in post. Thats what I would do.
