Ray-traced 3D options


#1

Hi,
Does anyone know if you can globally apply ray-traced 3d settings to all of your comps?
I’ve got about 8 comps using ray-traced 3d, and i’m currently having to change each of them regularly between draft and higher settings. Surely there’s a way to change all of them simultaneously?

Also, am I right in thinking that glow and fast-blur don’t work on raytraced-3d comps?

Cheers,
Nat.

hey guys,
I made a tutorial detailing true projection mapping onto 3d extruded shapes in after effects. Chapters are labeled in the description. Thanks for watching.

Examples of completed projections:

I figured this out myself and tried to compile it into a tutorial. Though the workflow works, ideally the online community could figure out how to project alpha layers onto 3D geometry using tricks in this tutorial.

If you have any questions about the process please post them on vimeo so that all Q&A is in the same place.

Regards,
Mike Sevigny
