Choosing active camera of precomp?
Posted: April 15th, 2010, 2:36 pm
Hey all, so I'm wondering if this is even possible, but...
Is there a way to choose the active camera of a precomp via an expression?
Say for example, you have a comp with 2 or more cameras in it. You bring that comp into another main comp, effectively making the comp with all the cameras in it a precomp.
Is there an expression (or script) that you can apply to the precomp, to force it to look through or make active a specific one of the cameras within the precomp?
So basically, within the main comp, you can have 2 or more copies of the precomp, but all the precomps are looking through different cameras?
______________________________
-Cameras_precomp
Camera1
Camera2
-Main_comp
Cameras_precomp (...expression to look through "Camera1 in Cameras_precomp"?)
Cameras_precomp (...expression to look through "Camera2" in Cameras_precomp?)
_______________________________
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Dan
