hi bogiesan
when you say precompose the window object with the walking person in the same comp, what do you mean.

At the moment the whole thing is in just one comp. Are you suggesting it may be better to have the room as one comp, and the window, light, and animation on a separate comp? then put them together?

could you be a little more specific please cos like i say i’m very new to this!
