Hi
In part 3 of video tutorial there are two render elements but in part 2 you mentioned only one render pass. how to render the second pass.
Just put a white material on the letters and hide the background and export this pass as a PNG sequence with alpha using scanline render, because it renders faster than V-ray. This is your alpha matte actually.
Seems like a good tutorial, but the After Effects part relies on too many non standard plugins, which is disappointing, Makes it useless unless the person watching happens to have all of the same ones
I think the same Aaron… is a great tutorial but can to be better in the future with no so many non standard plugins
Thanks.
when i selected 3 edge and pull them up i have bad shape can you help me .. what i missing?
Edit : thanks .. I found the answer…but i have another problem..how can create some edges .. what the shortcut? :)
Hold shift while dragging the edges up, and it’ll extrude new edges
thanks Aaron
:)
That’s useless…!
Why you dont explain these shortcuts u push every time ?! Creating some edges but how video 1!
Amazing Job! I am a huge fan of your work :))) Hope to see more of you two working together :)
good tutorial
