Video in BG

[Tim West]

Hi,

One way to get video into C4D is to import it as an image in a material.

Create a new material.
In the ‘Luminance’ channel click the texture button and find your video.
Click the button again and you can control how the video functions (how it loops etc).
With the material highlighted click the ‘animate preview’ box in the attributes manager.
Drop your material on to the background.

Now when you shuttle through your timeline the video should update so you have your reference.

Hope that helps 🙂
