Jim, I just put some projects up with E3D (I have be= en remiss the last two years). I will look for some variations of those pro= jection mapped sets that I templated for the editors to use with little E3D= knowledge. They take advantage of the array transitions, by pre-rotating the models in 3dsMax, then mapping = the various rotations, then setting up pre-comps  in AE with the appro= priate offset rotations. (It is a lot clearer when one sees it).=

I'm enjoying all the samples being posted.

 

Michael, can you post some of yours?  A sample = of projection mapping?

I have both, and I use OF much more than Element.  But= , I think what's best for you depends on what your needs are.  Some pe= ople put flares on everything, including Element; but you'd rarely hear the reverse of that, I'd think.
