I think I said “actually” too many times. Let me rephrase that:
Cineware allows you to preview how your 3D model will look in your AE composition before rendering the C4D video and bringing it into AE.
Element 3D actually brings the 3D model into AE allowing you to use the AE camera to orbit around the 3D model.
