hahaha, thanks! yeah, the first one is definitely more applicapable to the stuff we do here. the second, hmmm, i don't know what you'd use it for. motion graphics i guess. i was just really blown away by how easy it was to set up, and thought i'd share a little 3d after effects with you guys.
of course, in AE 3d you could very easily set up a real 3d type shot, by putting things on layers and positioning them the same way you do in a 3d program.
yeah, i make sound effects all the time when i'm working on stuff. god help me if i ever get to do lightsabers for something - that's the ULTIMATE mouth-sound-effects project! I'd be taken away in a straightjacket.
