thank you very,very much now i just have to do a little a bit of tweaking for that 3d object to look good when the camera orbits around it

[Petcov Petru]

thanks a lot but i’m not sure if you understand me correctly – i want the panorama to be projected on the inside (back) faces of the cube and camera to be also inside the cube and orbit around like you do with standard interactive panorama.

the edges and corners of the cube it’s still visible

Thank You,Thank You,Thank You!

I just made more clone cubes changed the keyframes a little and it’s perfect for what i want.

[Petcov Petru]

Yes,Thank You very much

I would appreciate some suggestions on lighting and what properties to ad to material because I tried it in many ways and I can’t manage to reproduce it right.I tried with Greyscalegorilla’s Light Kit pro with all the studios and tweaking that lights but I don’t like the results.Here is what I achieved

Here is the file 5183_013lightproductstudio.c4d.zip it’s made with Light Kit Pro 1.5 3LightProductStudio

By the way can somebody tell me if I can add some other lights in the studios from Light Kit Pro?.I found only that comment about this:

You may be adding a light to a scene with the light switch turned off. You can remove the light switch to turn all the lights back on.

Yes that’s possible but how can I put a new light while the switch is on? My scene looks bad when it is turned off… 🙁

Remove the light switch and then turn all the “normal” lights off. Then add more lights.

What is that light switch and these “normal” lights?

Thank You and sorry if I have too many questions 🙂

first of all sorry for the late reply Thank You

excuse me for my noobish question but how can you design those shapes in Illustrator and know that they are looking that way when they are textured on 3d sphere,i mean in Illustrator -before they are applied to the spheres…is there a certain method or can you see somehow what those shapes will look on 3d sphere?

I mean 🙂 those lines and shapes to be positioned in the right place for example that certain shape to stay exactly on top of the sphere (with centerpoint in the north pole),that line to stay on equator

[Petcov Petru]

Thank You!

[Petcov Petru]

Excellent,that will do it.Thank you and for your fast responses

[Petcov Petru]

Yes,thank you but I’m interested more in achieving that effect on the motion or movement,it’s smth like stop motion with blur or I don’t know,something like in a dream 🙂

[Petcov Petru]

Thank You for your reply

Yes I saved the file already before that,and as I said in the first post when I try to open it it shows the image in the preview thumbnail and the size of the file is the same as before the issue but only that when Photoshop open it it’s just one black locked background layer.

Indeed it’s a good idea to save several versions of the file which I didn’t and thank you for that but I don’t understand why is this happening especially that I can see the image in the preview thumbnail.

Thank you and sorry for my late reply.

Forgive my inexperience but can you explain a little more this:
“They most likely marked values on their zoom ring with tape and kept notes of these values.”
because I don’t really understand how this can help me whith my problem.How can I know for example the focal length for a certain frame

I just want to know how to calculate the focal length,at least for the first and last frame.
