Cinema 4 d lite objects in After Effects - shadows and lights

Hello, how do you get one any Cinema 4 d object to respond to light that AE should cast a shadow?

1. I apply the effect of trail camera to my images

2. I select track points, the red target, right-click and 'Create Shadow Catcher, camera and light '.

a. light Options - shadows on

b. Shadow Catcher - accepts lights only

c. renderer - Standard (Final)

3. I import a C4D object and set CINEWARE to 'Camera Comp.

The C4D object titles correctly to the camera, but the object does not accept AE light and does not a shadow of this

light on the Shadow Catcher layer. Can't find the answer to online tutorials. Thanks for your help!

Rob C.

You need to put your lights in the scene, export your comp in C4D project and then set up your shadows in C4D

  • Find the edge of the object in After Effects

    Hello

    first of all, I'm sorry if the answer to my question is already posted somewhere... I'm a little confused, I did not only find one somewhere in the web already - don't know if I may search for terms good or if it's really such a special question, I...

    Anyway, my question is: How can I get the coordinates of all four edges of the objects (images) in a three dimensional composition in After Effects? And also, is there a way to see the real coordinates of the camera that I have proposed by several same-sex objects?

    In this case, it could be interesting, here is a more detailed description of my situation: I did a little three-dimensional composition in After Effects with images scaling and rotation one a mobile camera. I want to show the composition in a Tablet app and my first plan was to make and put the film in the app, but now my programmer and I think it might be better to generate the component directly in the app. So my programmer needs the coordinates of said to rebuild the composition in its code (as far as I know, using Xcode and wrote the app in Objective-C).

    Hope you guys can help me...

    See you soon!

    Welcome to the Forums. As Mylenium has already indicated that the issue could be with the permissions, you can try to run the program as administrator and check if it opens upward.

    Hello

    Sorry, but you will probably need to rebuild everything in Animate. Although their timelines are similar in some ways, there is no interoperability between After Effects and animate dashboard.

    the following fix has worked for me

  • After Effects CS5 and Sony HDR - SR1 AVCHD (.) MTS file format)

    Hello world

    I just started with After Effects, and I the only video camera I have is an old Sony HDR - SR1 camera, which records in 1080i and uses the AVCHD file format. I recorded some videos, in which I went to try and import them into After Effects. The program came up with this error: "error effects: '0020.MTS' cannot be imported - this".mts"file is damaged or not supported." I understand that this error is quite common, but I do not understand how to fix it. I've tried the Media Encoder, and the videos that come out are videos of nothing like horrible quality than videos recorded on the camera. I also tried included Picture Motion Browser from Sony (I have the latest version) and when I try to convert, the video also released horrible quality always has these annoying lines on the video. Help, please!

    Thank you!

    In fact, EI must recognize the AVCHD video, because I imported one of my recoedings, which is 1080 p MTS to EI, and it worked. Maybe the problem is in 1080i. I still have her deinterlace my 1080i files and then import them to AE. You can try to deinterlace your files and then import them to AE.

    Regarding deinterlacing, you can google or you can give brorsoft mts converter, which I use now to try. It has a codec for AE and Adobe Premiere, wchich make it easier to import files to the AE. In addition, you can convert your 1080i MPEG-2 files and then import them to AE.

  • After Effects CS4 and conversion in a lossless format

    I posted in the forums Adobe Premiere about a problem I had with my renders. If you want to read, then you can check with the following url.

    http://forums.Adobe.com/message/2622969#2622969

    What I realized is that After Effects doesn't like my AVCHD files I receive from my camera. (They are a h.264 and m2ts file type MP4)

    The problem is that I get "echos" or jump when I give something back in After Effects or return with Media Encoder via links dynamics and Premiere Pro CS4.

    I'm not familiar with is types of files that a lot of you who are more expereinced that I use for After Effects when you must convert to a lossless format (or as close as you can get to be "Lossless".

    I was wondering if someone could recommend the types of files should I be convert and if you have a good method to convert. Not that I want people to discuss other software here, but if you use not Adobe programs to convert, so what types of files you convert to?

    In other words, where do recommend you I begin reading or research on this because a large number of companies sell conversion programs. I currently have one I paid for, but it does not work I need to do to the HD. I want to keep as close as possible HD quality.

    FYI, usually, I'll do the video with green screen effects in After Effects. My output is video. If you have any other questions about my process, then feel free to ask me questions. Other than that, have I appreicate any advice.

    Yes, of course, there are better days for QT and recent versions are UM pretty - ho (Apple simply does not know how to make good software PC, if you ask me), but at least it offers a few options widely accepted codecs, which is somewhat important not only for your own reading, but at the latest when you need to share with other artists. AVI Windows own offerings are severely limited in this regard, literally leaving only uncompressed or ELA MS for intermediate workflows. It is if you do not have the commercial CoDecs like Cineform, do not want to get into the tumultuous waters of free CoDecs like HuffYUV and Lagarith or do not like AJA capture cards with their own set of CoDecs...
