Thanks for the beautifully graphic reply.
Very impressed and heart warming to see a frame rate of 25.
Exactly my setup except I have DV type 2 frames as my video and I set it to “exact frame” rather than “exact second”. Exact frame seemed at the time the logical choice as everything i am doing is keyed to frames and not time.
As is stated the problem is that as i step through the frames in the main C4D interface the movie clip stays on whatever frame is set at first frame.I only see the relevant video frame when I “render view”.

Why do you have your video in the colour channel as opposed to the luminance channel?

Nice and warm in Darwin!

Thanks Brian,

What actually is a “background object” as distinct from a “normal” object?

The plugin sounds good ….certainly better than marking points on my monitor with a felt pen.

Thanks

Your presumption is correct.

Thanks Adolfo

Yes I have put in the scale factor BUT I thought it was 0.01
This is the value suggested by NextLimit and it is repeated throughout the NL-C4D forum.

Hi Adam,

Seems much better in the luminance channel.
I also turned off the color channel.
The omni lights now appear to only light the water material and not the clip…
is this whats meant to happen??

I was animating the wrong parameter.
One glass of red wine and I am back on track.

Nolan,

Still need a bit more help.
Following your words I can get a sphere onto a circle spline and get it to move if i change the position percentage.
I tried adding key frames with the sphere in different positions but they are not recorded and of course no motion when i press play.
This was simple as pie in V7…….
What am i doing wrong …what am i missing??

Hi Adam,
[Adam Trachtenberg] “I’m not sure what you’re trying to accomplish, but it sounds like you might be better off putting the DV clip in the luminance channel.”

The final effect is an actor writng on a wall of water between them and the camera.

Tonights experiment — the luminance channel.

Thanks

Thanks,

i almost had it right
