Hi Hamboy,

– Create an open path using the Pen Tool.
– Select your path & got to Object>Path>Outline Stroke. This will close your path.
– Make sure, now that your path is diagonal so the mapping starts at one end of your object (The lower left)
– In Invigorator switch the front & Back faces off & increase the Depth value.
– Using the layer mapping technique, create a transparency map that is half-white/ half-black or alpha so you can eliminate the backside of your filmstrip.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay I was out of town.

The look of all objects can be altered by simply manipulating the Hillight Brightness & Sharpness in the Materail Editor and/or reflections.

Hi,

You could try the following:
-Precomp your animated layers.
-Apply the Time Remap effect
-Add the following expression:
n = 15;
n*time

I am rendering and can’t test it but it should work.

The expression is from our God “Dan” or was it from “Zidan”? What the heck, they are both sooo great!

Hi,

Since AE 7 is 32 bpc capable, eLin is no more necessary.

Hi,

You need Invigorator Pro or ProAnimator from https://www.zaxwerks.com to import a 3D object into AE. Unfortunately Poser is not supported. Check if your object is also available in a supported format like LWO, OBJ, 3DS…
Visit the Zaxwerks site to learn more.

Hi,

Unfortunately it sounds that your project is corrupt. Try to import it in a new ae project and see if this works.
You could send me the project without any media files if you want. (serge_01 at msn dot com)
