the first possibility I dont want to do because I also want the environment that the robots are in. I’m only using AE for the crowd. The pre-render part… I heard people say you don’t want unecessary things to render. hmmm I guess rendering a video crowd within 3dsmax without making render times longer?
one question. what do you do if you wanted to put the crowd in behind an object using masking or something? what do they call that in the biz? haha Sorry I don’t really know how to explain it.
