Hmmm, that sounds a little strange. Off to the top of my head I couldn’t tell you what the problem might be. If you’d like to send me a copy of your project I’d be more than happy to take a look for you.

Is it tinted when exported to another file format? ie .mov or tiff sequence?

Thanks, but I think you’ve missed the point.
I have the box checked to use the comp camera, but it is not possible to position it accurately in the scene as it uses its own transformations to define its position in 3D space.

Yeah, in the drop down menu at the bottom of the composition window where you choose the resolution there is a custom option. You can change this to 8, 16, whatever you want basically.

No, what I meant was make sure the camera is locked off while shooting the greenscreen footage!
The camera in the car can move about no problem as the the guy getting run over will be tracked on to a point on the road, which reminds me, you might want to put a marker down on the road where the guy gets run over, just behind where you want him to be, then you won’t have to paint it out after. This will give you a location marker in the 3D track as well if you were to track that way.
The problem if you use a point track might be when the marker disappears under the bonnet when you get close in, you would then have to track something else in the seen and link them together. A 3d track would be a better option in my mind, as long as there was enough scenery in view outside the car to get a good track. Hope this helps.

Yeah you could use an expression to link them I suppose. Pick whip the hour to the minutes and divide by 60 (/60) I think.
-
Could you put the hours on a different layer and animate that separately? More hassle I know than doing it on one layer but it should work.

Just to update this thread for anyone who is interested, the boujou .ban plugin on mac does not work with newer versions of AE. Boujou was updated to solve the problem of wrong pixel aspect ratios in AE CS3+ but boujou silver bullet didn’t get the update. So basically that means I have to live with the wrong pixel aspect ratio or import the .ban on a windows machine then open the project on mac.

If you set the type in the drop down menu to time doesn’t that do what you want?
