Thanks. I have a working knowledge of C4D I just thought AE would be the best choice for this project since I assume it would be the easiest to create the grayscale map and the displacement map and then use those to create the vertical relief and just flip the movie into the vertical and throw a geographical map under the image and bam you’re done.

How would you recommend attacking this in a 3D program? Right now my main sticking point is figuring out how to create the grayscale map of it. I thought AE would be the avenue for that. If there is a better way I’m certainly open to it.

Thanks!
