This sample contains and example of 3D match-moving, set extensions, and compositing. This comes from a church building campaign promotional video. I was given the CAD geometry created by the architects.

To achieve this I:

• -Imported it in to 3D Studio MAX
• -Positioned a video segment behind it to act as a reference for manually matching my original camera moves.
• -Animated the 3D camera movements according to my original video footage
• -Matched the lighting / sun positioning
• -Rendered the scene without the reference video segment
• -Imported that scene into After Effects.
• -Placed the 3D sequence in the comp with the original footage
• -Extended elements in the 3D video to better match up with the existing footage
• -Extended the parking lots to mimic the still images rendered by the architects.
• -Rendered the final comp.

*Note: The second clip is a slow motion view of the comp.
