To assign an image plane to a new camera shot
- In the
Camera Sequencer, select
Create > Shot >
.
- In the
Create Shot Options, specify the file you want to assign to this shot’s camera using the
Image option.
Note:
If you specify an image plane on a camera during shot creation, the image plane does not move to the new camera if you change the camera used for the shot.
To assign an image plane to an existing camera shot
- Do one of the following:
- If the camera shot has no current image plane, right-click the camera shot and select Attach Image Plane from the pop-up menu, then browse to select a file.
- To change an existing image plane, right-click the camera shot and select Image Plane Attribute Editor to open the Attribute Editor for the current image plane, then select a new file using the Image Name attribute.
Note: Image planes in the
Camera Sequencer are designed to play movies, so the image plane
Type attribute is automatically set to
Movie. If you want to assign a still image instead of a movie, you can change the image plane
Type to
Image File. If your system supports QuickTime, you can still use the
Movie type and QuickTime can read some images as a single-frame movie.
To use the image plane to hide geometry
- Set the image plane opacity to 1.0.
The scene geometry will not be drawn.
