    3D coordinate space

    The Euclidian/Cartesian environment that defines three dimensions by X-, Y-, and Z-axes, and their corresponding coordinate values.

    See also X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis.

    3D matte

    A color signal that is used to fill areas of keys and borders. Unlike a regular matte, a 3D matte has depth and is respected by all other 3D objects in the scene, letting you block out parts of a scene and replace it with video footage.
