    i watched michael jackson’s thriller yesterday and I wanted to do something similar to that part at the end of the song when he turned his head toward the camera with yellow cat or snake eyes. i did something similar but how could i make it more realistic by giving it a 3d spherical shape and make it looks as if the eyes are going to pop out .another thing,is it possible to track the eye while turning the head that way ?

    When Videocopilot.net comes back up there is a tutorial on there for creating a 3d eyeball and another for doing eye replacement that will be perfect for you.

    CC Sphere will give you a nice spherical shape.

    Tracking is always possible…unfortunately sometimes it has to be by hand.

    Here’s a search that brings up the tutorial that Michael mentioned.
