Pictures spinnig around a sphere render unsharp
Hi All,
I hope someone can help me with this problem.
In After Effects cs3 i’m trying to make a 3d sphere wich has still images spinning
around it, in its orbit. So I made a comp 1 (1024*576 sq) with a camera, the sphere
(cc sphere) an comp 2(cc sphere rendered outside) in it. In comp 2 (4096*2304) I
placed multiple hi res pictures and scaled them down to form a multiple picture
grid.In Comp one the images wich are “floating” in de sphere’s orbit are now
unsharp/blurry. When i toggle the 3d switch for comp 2 to off it becomes sharp again
or when I take off the cc sphere effect it renders ok again.I need it to be in 3d because of the camera animation that has to take place and the
pictures are supposed to spin around in the main sphere’s orbit. How do is solve
this?Could someone explain why it renders unsharp and if this is a malfunction in after
effects?Thnx!

Hi Dave, thanx for your comments.
I’ll try to explain what i’m trying to create in AE.
I want to make a planet wich is in a free space. In its atmosphere i have four rows of images, two above the equator and two under. Each row concists of 6 images (horizontal) so it would look like this.
X X X X X X
X X X X X X
X X X X X X
X X X X X XI took a texture image and put the cc sphere effect on to it. Then i made a new composition wich has a res of 4096*2304 and placed hi res
images in it and scaled them down so they would fit next to and above each other.
Then I dragged the second comp into the first one and applied the cc sphere effect to the second comp. I then positioned the second sphere on the exact location of the first one. After this I enlarged the radius of the second comp (images sphere) so it’s a in front of the planet. Then I keyframed the rotation of the planet clockwise and the images sphere counter clockwise. Up until now everything is fine.But when i switch toggle the 3d switch and create a camera the images become blurry. The camera is supposed to fly in to the planets atmosphere and fly from picture to picture.
I hope this clarifies things,
Sem
