Also does anyone know how to add a new tab to the interface? I would love to take the PyDeform menu and add that to a tab with the Attribute and Layer tabs in that palette.

I can get it very very close BUT I can not get the shadows to be the colors of the cubes.

Any ideas?

I am trying to create a Ribbon Banner that are seen in quite a lot of logos. The type of thing I mean can be found here : http://i.imgur.com/U5eYl.jpg

I was wondering how I could create this in Cinema and then Animate it sweeping on and off. I have tried bending and deforming a plane buy to no avail.

Hope someone can help me,

Am creating a range of After Effects sequences with 500+ images in each...

I can bulk-adjust image quality fine - by either importing as sequence, or using adjustment layers...

but I'm trying to think of some ways to automate parameters like scaling - on an image by image basis...

eg I'd like to start each image at a certain scale, then increase it a small per centage /
to create a continuous slight zoom that'd enhance a series of photos that travel along a wilderness path.

Is this something I should try and figure out expressions for - or is there some simpler solution I'm missing?

thanks!]]> Mon, 14 May 2012 13:26:35 +0000 http://mograph.net/board/index.php?showtopic=27343 http://mograph.net/board/index.php?showtopic=27342 does a diploma in this field really help ?
I'm fairly new to motion graphics but i've been working with 3ds max and after effects for a while, and recently switched to C4d and went full on hardcore motion graphics for a couple of months now, and i'm confident i can learn everything and get good without some fancy course
what do you guys think?]]> Mon, 14 May 2012 10:35:45 +0000 http://mograph.net/board/index.php?showtopic=27342 http://mograph.net/board/index.php?showtopic=27341
I know the rule of thumb is to make your reel under a minute but I do more than just motion graphics & wanted my reel to include a lot of the films & music videos I've directed over the years.

I'd love to hear your thoughts! thnx!

So im noticing that when i make an object with a glow added to it
the object shows up in my reflections but not the glow
any workaround suggestions or fixes?]]> Sat, 12 May 2012 03:38:09 +0000 http://mograph.net/board/index.php?showtopic=27339 http://mograph.net/board/index.php?showtopic=27338

It was a delight to work on. I spent days trying to balance lighting, luminosity and global illumination settings, and troubleshooting Ambient Occlusion passes over the net render, but when it all worked out, it was really nice to see the virtual LED lightbulb really lighting the scene as it does in real life.


I had some difficulty with GI and Ambient Occlusion when used with material transparency. Very flickery, and way worse with the net render. Anyone else have issues like that?
Anyway, hope you guys like it...]]> Fri, 11 May 2012 19:36:50 +0000 http://mograph.net/board/index.php?showtopic=27338 http://mograph.net/board/index.php?showtopic=27337 http://www.adobe.com.../apsb12-11.html
