Hi

[serge] “Create a plane at the same aspect ratio then your movie. For example if your movie is, 720 X 480, create a plane that is 720 X 480”

Sometimes it can be that easy 🙂
Thank you

one more question
I’ve got two objects,a cylinder+a plane in the same scene.
Transparency map for the cylinder is an animated text layer=>wraps around the cylinder.
In the middle of the cylinder is a plane(video as a layermap).
My question:How can i drop shadows from the cylinder to the plane?In other words, i want to drop the shadow of the text(cylinder) on the Video.

Hi
[Jon Okerstrom] “you could create a simple rectangular plane and layermap the movie of the person to the front face of the plane.”

It works to layermap the person to the plane but it’s rather impossible to give the plane the right size, so that the person will look like in the original footage!Any tricks ?The person is distorted,proportion is incorrect!
When i layermap the person to the plane ,do i really need a transparency map to hide the parts of the plane which shouldn’t be visible ?

Hi
Trapcode’s Sound keys plug in would do the job!

Hi Serge

When i use the lawn as a layer map for a plane it looks really flat,like somebody walked on it:).
Does your lawn include a camera?Which view?
Your Ball really looks as if it’s on the grass:).
