The Cube

DNA

This project allows you to build cubic reflection maps (or generally a unfolded cube cross map) such as it could be useful for a number of 3D-ish effects like Shapeshifter or FreeForm Pro. The package contains two projects: One that contains a rigged "live" version, another for offline baking of maps if you don’t have any of these plug-ins and want to use the maps in conjunction with other tools. Within each project, there are two methods to produce the maps. One takes any normal footage and slices it up to produce a cube and retain unwarped projections while at the same time doing some dilation/expansion at the top and bottom to produce a ceiling and floor, the other method uses skybox images such as you can create them in 3D programs or by photographing multiple views from a tripod. Alignment of the maps can be controlled with some expressions as well.

Red Giant Warp with 3D layers

Red Giant Warp

Since this feature is not implemented yet in Red Giant Warp, some expressions to tie in the Reflection and Shadow effects with After Effects‘ 3D layers might come in handy. Fancy photo frame included.
