Really appreciate you explaining 'why' you are clicking the things you're clicking!! Watched way too many tutorials that just whizz through and don't explain what the buttons do but 'just click it'

Thank you so much for this! I've listened to this for like 50 times now because I cant seem to memorize the steps but I enjoy it everytime :)

[@becomeabetteryou9459]

2 small tips: 1- If you use the "Top" view, you would be able to make a perfect box by aligning the walls and floor without leaving any room for guess work. 2- If the image gets a bit blurry (It definitely will.), the best way to recover some definition is to - Go to "composition setting" - "3D renderer' - click the option button and change the "shadow map resolution" to 4000.

[@amrit9249]

it looks very dark what shall I do?

[@becomeabetteryou9459]

@@amrit9249 - Create an adjustment layer - Apply the "Levels" effect - adjust the blacks and whites until you get a satisfactory result.

4:48 when she says "next we are gonna move to the original image" how can i do that?

@@yoo9558 you're not supposed to move anywhere just click on the 3d box option to make the image 3d and it'll appear on your 3d canvas

Did not work for me, double checked everything, made sure all the settings and positionings are correct, but when I turn Cast shadows "Only" for the image it just disappears and nothing projects onto the planes... As I said, I checked all the Settings on the solids and the image, the light and the camera is hard to get wrong. I don't know what to do about that...

[@LDBertie]

actually instead of bluring the objects, you can turn on the out of focal in camera :)))

Is it possible to make as if camera moves endlessly into depth? Say I have image of road with a few houses but I want to make it seem like road has infinite houses.

[@EmoneeLaRussaTutorials]

I think you may run into an issue of resolution, because if you are pushing in too far it tends to take alot of that resolution away. BUTTT I think if you play around with it you may find a solution!

[@essencecartoon]

Productioncrate has a script that does this for you.

[@weedhouse5553]

😍😍😍

[@JXoaT]

Need a little help. Why did the image stay blurry after I turned off accept lights for the background layers?

[@EmoneeLaRussaTutorials]

Check if you camera has depth of field on. Also check if you are set to full resolution. Your image should be at least times the size of your comp to get the best results

[@JXoaT]

@@EmoneeLaRussaTutorials I really appreciate the response! I have a promo video coming up, and I thought this effect would be perfect! Unfortunately, I doesn't look like either of the first changes worked out. So, it might just be the size of the picture (1920 × 1080). I can try to upscale it.

[@EmoneeLaRussaTutorials]

@@JXoaT I recently heard there was a new plug in cause Gaussian splatting that does a similar effect. I have no tried it so I can’t recommend it but you should def check it out!

@@EmoneeLaRussaTutorials You're a life saver! Thank you

[@tinkeringwithediting4860]

My AE absolutely have no light transmition

[@HridyanshSharma]

My image is appearing blurry what should i do?

[@EmoneeLaRussaTutorials]

i believe its because you have your camera depth of field on.

[@Rotceev]

Hi, I am doing almost exactly sth like you did here, I stumbled on a little issue, an I was wondering if some one could have a clue what I'm doing wrong. I have a tracked camera motion, its is a very slow reverse movement of camera with a little shake (no expression) but the floor seems to jiggle weirdly. like in some of those first 3d games that had software rendering engine, and when you looked at it from very close, the texture distorts. it is a distortion of the projected image on the floor, but it seems to be connected with the motion of the camera which doesnt make any sense.... any ideas would be appreciated.

[@EmoneeLaRussaTutorials]

Sounds like you may be projecting on other layers, make sure you cast shadows is set to ONLY on your main image and that your other images in the scene have the accept lights and accept shadows turned off

[@Rotceev]

@@EmoneeLaRussaTutorials I will try that. thx for response.

[@isaliu]

Why am I unable to get the image to be projected... :(

[@isaliu]

When I’m at 5:05 the image I project is very blur. However, my dimensions are 6240x3512 which is pretty high

[@kryptie7259]

mine shows up very blurry for some reason anybody know why?

Help! If I do the rotation thing around 3:00 I have this problem that the white shape doesn't stay filled into the red border, I can rotate it but the white square isn't reacting with the red lines as in the video. I didn't forget to make it a 3D, is there a solution? I made a printscreen so you can see: imgshare.io/image/pEc9kx
