  • Rotating movies for texture maps

    Posted by Jennifer Occhicone on May 28, 2009 at 5:11 pm

    Is there anyway to rotate the movie used fro a texture map? I have a movie I mapped onto the side of my object, and the motion of the movie was going across the side, I want it to go down the side. So, I rotated the movie in AE and re-rendered it and brought that new movie back in and applied the new movie to the layer map, but it is still going in the same direction, across the side? Any suggestions?

    Hi Jennifer,

    One way you can do this is to import the movie into After Effects, and then Pre-compose the movie layer. Then, in the Pre-comp, rotate the movie. When you use the Pre-comp as the layer map, the movie should be rotated.

    Best,
    Edward
