Static background plate

[prodviz]

Hi all,

Is there a way of adding a background plate in standalone, which has the same resolution as the camera and which doesn't move on rotating the camera?

cheers,

Steve

you can click set background image next to the lock button.
I don't think it gets exported with the image though, so you need to put it back in post.

Cheers for the info, but this doesn't seem to be working for me (I'm using 2.01).

Make sure you turn alpha channel on in your kernel. If there is anything actaully visible, you wont see the back plate.
i just checked in 2.01 and it works for me.

Hi kavorka,

thanks very much for that - I was missing the alpha channel option.

cheers,

Steve
