Thanks a lot that was very clear straight to the point and easy to follow :)

[@starlivat1274]

this is exactly what I have been looking for so long (how to quickly make a reflection on a 3D object) thank you very much

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

Glad I could help♥️

I've always done my camera work manually and than all of a sudden I see what these dolly and panning tools are. That is going to same me so much time. Thanks once again mate.

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

Always learning something new😁 thank you for watching mate.
You could even quickly use all camera tools if you hold ALT key, left mouse button, scroll wheel and right mouse button respectively become camera tools. But that works with after effects 2022 and above I believe.

@@SmertimbaGraphics For some bizarre reason, on my After Effects journey, I have just never seen them used in a tutorial, so I just never picked it up. I like your videos because even on subjects I know, you always seem to throw in some great little tips.

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

That's great to know, I'll keep adding more useful tips then 😁

[@thedude6924]

Great Video! Thanks a lot, i will try it out!

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

It's a pleasure, enjoy👍

@@SmertimbaGraphics I'm trying to animate the "Universal" Animation from the Universal Studios on the sky from a video footage. It should look like that the Word is actually moving over the sky 😄 Harder than i thought. It would be awesome if you know how to do that 😉

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

If you have element plugin it would be a lot easier😁

Question why did you add the photo? I was assuming the 3D text would be show with the photo at the end? Great explanation regarding the 3D text.

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

I added a photo to make it an environment layer, that way texts reflects whatever you add

[@YoungMindods]

when i clicked on 3D for my text it's turned completely black and my text doesn't show up anymore,can you tell me why it does that?thank you very much:)

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

Did you add a light layer?

[@mazakme241]

cineware server suite failed to acquire rendered port and path@@SmertimbaGraphics

[@Martin-hv9zp]

THANK YOU SO MUCH BRO, DO YOU HAVE SKILLSHARE COURSE OR RECOMMEND ME TO SOMEONE

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

Thanks for watching😊
No I do not have any courses as of now 😁

[@Martin-hv9zp]

@@SmertimbaGraphics you better do it Bro, I'll watch it until I get permanently burned in skill share courses 😂😂 or better still do a TH-cam master course on after effects

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

I appreciate it 😁 will think of it for future 💯

[@Martin-hv9zp]

@@SmertimbaGraphics thanks

[@MarijnIsMnSchatje69]

my after effects keeps crashing when i click cinema 4d. Any sollutions?

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

I haven't had that issue, can't say why that is🤔

[@amayaagomez]

it happened to me too, idk

[@DrNoobzz]

I'm not able to make the Map composition into an Environment layer, please guide

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

What exactly is the issue?

[@DrNoobzz]

@@SmertimbaGraphics when I right click on the Map comp the environment layer option is gryed out (cannot select it)

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

You most likely didn't change the renderer in composition settings

[@DrNoobzz]

@SmertimbaGraphics I only have 2 options Classic 3D & Ray-traced 3D tried both just now. I also noticed in the gaussian blur setting I do not have the checkbox of Repeat Edge Pixels (can this be the reason?)

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

You need cinema 4d renderer, that will also allow you to extrude the shapes

[@charxhub]

Why when i set the image as enviroment layer it becomes at the background

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

You can't see the environment layer, only in reflections

[@charxhub]

​@@SmertimbaGraphicsthat's supposed to happen but it becomes the background

[@adarshjeeneea7526]

Your Environment Map isnt working for me😢

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

Try a different one on google

[@mralishr]

Its shadows does not work for me!

[@SmertimbaGraphics]

What exactly do you mean? did you add lights

[@EVANHO-nr2jo]

WOW, THAT'S HARD
