  • Texture mapping in AE

    Posted by Jim Sanders on June 14, 2005 at 12:38 pm

    It has been a while since I have needed to do any texture mapping in AE. I have a spinning globe background that has a small (left / center 1/3rd) globe spinning and the rest of the screen is another copy of the same globe spinning at the same rate as the smaller globe. I would like to texture map land based vehicles on the larger globe on the land masses and in the oceans (which are black) I would like to place space rated hardware? Can anyone help me?

    Dave Thanks, what I am using is a 2D Jumpback (www,digitaljuice.com) vol. 22 clip 888. It already has a (small) 2D globe (very textured earth) spinning in the left center 1/3 and the rest of the screen is of the same 2D texture earth rotating at the same speed as the inset globe (earth). I was tring to map the land based footage on the texture land masses and the black oceans map the space footage?

    Again thank you Dave, there’s a lot of wisdom in your last post. I think I may just do what you suggested… Build a copy of what Jumpback is doing in Maxon Cinema 4D. I am pretty new at the software but I have a little time built into the deadline for experimenting. Thanks
