I watch carefully your video because ive been having a big problem with 3d layers in AE CS4.

I have a model in Maya and i export it as .obj and run to Photoshop CS4 extended then its really 3d there , i color it there and save it as PSD .

Then i go to AE CS4 and import it as live photoshop
layer, but my problem is, that the layer is not 3d anymore. If i use the camera there, it stays in 2d like a piece of flat paper when rotated.

I really dont know whats wrong, or did i miss something?
And also when i double click on the (something like a precomposed icon), it has no camera in there.

Im thinking maybe because ur file was a 3ds and mine was .obj… i really dont know

Hope you can help me

I took some Adobe class @ school and as I was reading my book I found out about Adobe After Effect I look up online and I’m hooked. Very soon I’m gonna get Adobe after effect but I do have a question I’m working on a music video project and we used green screen when we film the video now are there any tricks or kromakey, or Video Merge effect in After effect to make the backgoung transparent so I can add more object of the backgound of my actors?

After Effects has many keying effects built in, including one professional level one called “Keylight” which works great for keying.
