Problems 3D integration
Hello there! I’m having some problems integrating a camera move from 3Dmax into After Effects. I’m exporting the 3d animation as a .rpf frame sequence and importing it into AE. Once there I’m using animation>keyframe assistant>rpf camera import to generate a camera with the same movement but nothing happens. I’ve done this a couple of times before and worked just perfect but this time I don’t know what may be happening. The 3d animation is 1024×768.. could this be the problem? is there a setting I shuold pay special attention either in AE or 3Dmax?
Thanks in advence!

I haven’t gone through this process all that often myself, but I believe that your camera move must be ‘baked’ (every frame converted to a keyframe) in your 3D program before AE can do anything with it… Since you say that you’ve done this successfully before I would guess that’s not the problem, but maybe something to check.

I don’t know if you have seen this yet but here is a link to some instructions on how to import camera data:
