Just wanted to give a heads up to an updated version of Thomas Volkmann script. Bartek Skorupa update his script. It so much easier and works with both AE CS3 & CS4. Bartek has a video up of how the script works.

This I mention it’s a tutorial too. You can download an even updated version of his new script (without a tracker/null) here.

This I’m sure is gonna help everyone for sure.

      Very nice script. This will allow you to put footage into a blender-render mapped to any position.

      I do have a workflow question, though.

      First take a look at this: http://www.fnordware.com/OpenEXR/

      Does blender save the id and uv data when using openEXR format ?

      If it does you should be able to simply retexture the needed parts in AE using the free plugin from above.

      I did this a couple of times using Lightwave and DigitalFusion and the result were great.

      No need to map any camera or Object

      Sheer awesomeness! So cool, thanks!

      Now can someone please do a Monet or Mocha to Blender using XML export. That would be a huge step into the commercial/ pro world. :) That being said… After Effects integration is awesome- oh what about an export to layers for GIMP! Kinda like export to PSD in layers! And so on and so on…

      Great script.. I just tested with AE7 which I have running at home… works great.

      Yes! Now we don’t have to go through motion tracking!
      Though one question: Is it fully compatible with 2.5?

      EDIT:
      I just tested it and no. It isn’t. That sucks.

      Version for blender 2.5 available on my site.
