3D MODELS
After a little bit of work, I discovered an experimental technique for generating Image Based Lighting with Element 3D!
So what is image Based Lighting? Basically is when you use an environment map (or HDRI) to simulate the lighting in a 3D scene without adding any individual lights. The specular highlights and overall illumination is generated from the environment automatically. This is a common technique for dedicated 3D programs for high-end Visual Effects work so they can match the practical lighting as accurately as possible.
This technique uses 2 additional copies of the Element 3D plug-in stacked on top of each other to generate the lighting but you can also add additional lights to your scene as well.

TIP: You can import the environment maps from Element too!

F***ing nice Andrew!
As allways!
What screen recorder do you use. I use captivate but I can’t seem to get that good of a look from mine.
I think he uses Camtasia
Check out my video with element 3d!

Please let me know of any improvements I can make!
Fail Clounds
Zack! Where you get this JET model?
Cool, that was missing! Thx!
Hope that you can integrate it directly into Element3D 
But it is a bit liek “100 Signs at the highway that the highway is broken” instead of repair it
cooooooooollllllllllll
Excellent, as always. Thanks AK.
EXITING STUFF , GOOD WORK Mr. ANDREW, as always

Very nice tutorial
but when comes metropolitan and industry and when comes the black hawk or the r18 jet from you demo reel??
METROPOLITAN (105)
thank you Andrew!!!! amazing, like always!!
AWESOME lighting was waiting for it cuz simple light just boring , this technique go beyond
Nice! Now only the cast shadow option and I’m buying this software for christmas
Andrew Kramer LOVE ME (NICE)
WHERE I CAN FIND THIS HELICOPTER MODEL?????????????????!!!!!!!
WHERE???
Yeah where i can find the model
Messege Us
Please! Where we can find that model?
where is the tutorial on train extension
Amazing technique, Keep Going!;)
Brilliant stuff, Andrew! Thanks a lot!
Hey Guys! Please check out my new mograph showreel http://reelroulette.net/vladislavpenzey
Dude…. NICE!!
AWESOME, AMAZING, GOOD WORK AS ALWAYS!
andrew this tutorial is very useful for me……….great……….thanks
does putting 3 layers of Element one after another may slow down everything? anyway… great ideas are coming from VC
AK out of control… Great stuff. If someone would tell me: Come up with great ideas like AK or I´ll put you in prison for 30 years…
I´ll sit in prison for 10950 long days
“”‘thanks a lot amdrew..you’re the best
you’re my idol!!
its really awesome!….
Amazing! Great job! Thanks!
Hey, you are the same Jovica from freesound.org?
wow…. andrew you are amazing ,this tutorial is very essential for me
tnx
Love it! Hey I always wondered how these people post so fast and get to be forever at the top. I made it to 13 so far. That’s pretty good. woo hoo!
4:00 am???????? lol here is 12:00
just in time for me to finish dropping this firetruck on the car! thank you….(and now I know where I got my cold from too!)
hey gr8 info ….really mean alot ….. i got one problem in element or i think may be i am wrong …I am making an object like human body and on the second object layer i have add a simple plan on which i have applied matte shadow . so when it should give me a shadow on the matte planner but i didnt giving me or when i incress the ambient occulusion nothing happens ..need help
You are trying to say you want the shadow of The object what you using Inside E3D ?
I never comment, but this is pretty f’ing brilliant. Well done.
D
Excellent Andrew , Thanks a lot man .
It’d be great if u could provide some free Environment Maps !!!
There are plenty on Flickr.
This is just kul, thanks kramer
Great tutorial!
BTW’s Andrew, when are you going to get back to normal AE tutorials !?
I hope this will come as a native function.
Thank you, Andrew. This is excellent. How I can get the helicopter
nice question . goto to us army and asked them to give you a gift of us helicopter .And maybe after yelling ..they will give it to you…:D
Hey Andrew! Awesome tut! Also, I noticed a model pack in your E3D scene setup in the tut, which says Metropolitan, and I believe that’s the new model pack coming out….. When’s it coming out????? Can’t wait for it!
That’s a useful tutorial! Is this the same as a lightwrap???
Hey Andrew!i wish one day you be my Cordial friend!
thank you so much!
Thanks for more of your time and excellent generosity, Andrew. So much to learn!
WHEN will the buildings pack come out
Hi Andrew,
how to create this entviroment Pictures? In Photoshop?
Do you have some Tips?
thanks
Andrew,
Great tutorial. Just one question. You kept replacing the background with those images but you didn’t really touch on how that was set up so you can pan around. Were the images set to the new CS6 horizon thing (or whatever it’s called)?
Thanks.
Eric
You just turn on show BG environment inside Element 3D.
if i don’t resize the specular and diffuse image, the quality will be better ?
Andrew – Roger that. I guess what threw me off is that you were replacing the map within AE, yet it’s applied in E3D. Still not sure what I’m missing on that workflow. I definitely understand how to turn on the BG in E3D and select one from a file – it’s just that replacement operation within AE that I don’t understand. Is that the same type image you can expect when shooting the 360 panorama?
I badly want that helicopter..
Why do you need to resize the images for defuse and specular?
To soften/blur the map and make it load faster.
Very interesting techniques Mr. Kramer. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge!
Hi, I need help
Why is all my panoramic photos when put to element turn very low res even though they are high quality e.g. 5000 by 2000?
Sir when is the metropolitan pack coming??
Sir when is the metropolitan pack coming.Also saw another pack Industry pack..plz will we be lucky?
Thanks a lot – Again a very useful tutorial.
The only thing i´d really like to know is – how i could manage to build my own 360° environement maps based on videofootage or location photos.
Any ideas ??
I hope you are rich, really rich, because you are one smart dude! Very cool technique. Nice tutorial. I’m just guessing that image based lighting will be a built-in feature of Element 3D 2.0, is that right?
very neat!
AWESOME – I’d like to see it taken a bit further with some animation!
Thanks for all you do A.K.
really a big fan andrew. i’m about to jump in the graphic designing world and i owe you big time for all your work that inspired me. another amazing tut mate! Cheers!
Hi Andrew,
Where did you get the Helicopter Model, also the Jet Fighter Model?
thanks
I don’t know where he got em, but here’s where I do: http://www.turbosquid.com
I’m waiting for the VCP model packs…they look so much better AND they work out of the gate with my beloved Element 3d…not to mention that unlike turbosquid, AK understands that we’re not made of money….
Andrew, is there a good resource for the HDRI images that you were using, or a tutorial on how to create them, you had some beautiful ones!
Jason – he did a tutorial a while back about the bkg images… per Andrew, go to Flickr and search under The Commons for ‘equirectangular’. They aren’t all 32 bit, but they serve this purpose.
Saw two packs, Industry and Metro
Hi Andrew, great tut as usual. As opposed to resizing the the HDR image to 4 x 8, why not apply a Gaussian blur to it instead? That is how we tone things down over in V-Ray. The basic idea is to reduce detail right?
Great tutorial again! Which is the best way to create those equirectangular images? Which camera lens and software lead to such good results as in your tutorials and the Element BG scenes? A tutorial on this topic would help users a lot to make their own environments. Thank you!
Awesome. I wish it was built in somehow, streamlining the process.
I see that someone went to Japan recently. The “yellow train”(sobu-sen) reminds me of some souvenirs.
When are we going to get a sweet vechicle model pack?
Any ETA on the vehicles pack? Can’t wait to get my hands on that!
this workaround is very smart! maybe we could have this as a checkbox in an update for upcoming versions?
cool tutorial! but why do we need to make the comp size smaller? thank you…
Hello …! greetings from Ecuador, excuse my English, I want to know if you can import an object or scene with animation pre established, for example: import a robot that is running, thanks and I hope to help me. Success …
I’m pretty sure the answer to this is no. The OBJ requires all its animation to be done once in Element (same with Trapcode Form). That would be a nice feature.
how the heck do you figure this stuff out? or even realize element is capable of it? that’s awesome. very well done.
Hey, concerning the Industry and Metro packs: what VCP-products can we expect for christmas shopping, or should I start looking to spend my money elsewhere?
(Please don’t say there’ll be a bunch of amazing stuff without being more specific. I’m starting to get really turned off by the whole hoo-have-we-got-something-[add overthetop superlatives]-for-you-but-we-can’t-just-yet-tell-you-what-it-is-for-reasons-we-won’t-explain-since-it-would-kill-the-buzz-we’re-just-now-trying-to-build-up-with-exactly-our-secrecy Apple-marketing technique you see popping up everywhere right now, like I’m going to beg a company to take my money).
Thanks.
Intriguingly enough, Video Copilot is the one and only company I actually do beg to take my money.
I like VCP products as well, otherwise I wouldn’t be asking this question.
(But rereading my comment, I realise it could come across as overly negative towards VCP’s introduction of products. It wasn’t meant that way, I was actually speaking more generally. In contrast of all the brouhaha going on everywhere nowadays around new products, I was hoping VCP comes with straight answers).
Also, I forgot to say thank you for another great tutorial.
Very nice! I see it’s labeled as an “experimental technique”. Any chance Element 3D will get modified to reduce the number of steps involved? Would be nice to have true HDR lighting within Element.
amazing and good work! thanks…
Great. Thnks a lot. Video copilot always gives the best.
I get it now! Quite cool indeed. Thanks for sharing.
thanks Andrew for the tutorial and for this great plugin you are the best
I have created a camaro in 3dsmax…I know how to export an obj files but how do i export mentalrays car paint shader to go with it? Thanks for the help…
Andrew Forever !!! Thank Video Copilot
Nice tutorial, but why isn’t it posted on your site?
I’m wondering the same thing… why is it not on the tutorial page?
Because He Said that he figured it out when he was p[laying with it. What you do by daily basis it post in blog.
Tutorial making means he had to decide first and record it to have that perticullar day. What i guess he didnt do that this time
That what is common thing meaning of blogs.
I dunno man. A blurry specular is still a specular is still a specular. Diffuse lighting doesn’t behave the way reflections do. It’s a nice cheap workaround but I think calling it image based lighting is a stretch.
.:GET IT NOW:.
Hi everyone. Here it is. The free 3D model “HELICOPTER UH-60″. It is almost the same as you see in this great tutorial. Go for it .. Cheers !
DOWNLOAD HERE:

I have created a car model in 3dsmax.Can some one point me to a tut that show how to render the car paint shader that i have applied to it to a texture map..I would like to use it with element 3d but i dont know how to set this up. Thanks
Messege Us Hope we can help you @Bill Workz
We can’t watch Youtube and Vimeo,
What a poor thing,please be Pitiful for us from China,Andrew~~
Great idea Andrew. Becomes a bit annoying if you want to swap out the 3D model, but exciting to see functional image based lighting in AFTER EFFECTS. Imagine having this plugin 6 years ago. Imagine what Element 2′s gonna be like….
“…nice sunset missile attack… very nice.”
cool its like in 3ds max
very useful nice
Amazing job Andrew. Love it
Hey Andrew, if I have a budget of about $130, what graphics card should I buy?
f***ing AWESOME !!! you’re the best Andrew!
Very interesting. Starting to make me want Element. I’m assuming for VFX work you mostly want to combine Element with Foundry’s Camera Tracker, or imported camera data from another match mover.
so awesome. very cool, will have to try it out today
If I found it interesting?
God, you just showed me heaven!!
Thanks for that… I need to get Element … but it’s so expensive.. :/ Well for me atleast.
this is our fifth short film…watch and enjoy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_310iHZ7IU
When the bundle with this models (helicopters and other vehicles) will be released ?
Are you ever going to have a vehicles model pack (with helicopters, cars, tanks, jets etc?)that would be awesome!
Can this be done with a 2D layer? like a green screen shot instead of a 3D object only?
Very cool Thanks for this
I want that Metropolitan expansion on my desk by 9am friday, or else…ok monday….tuesday at the very latest..yeah tuesday
Nice! Somebody visited my neighborhood; is that Akihabara you had up there? I think I saw Shinbashi, and the Sobu and/or Yamanote line too. You didn’t come visit Tokyo and tell us?
Can I ask what you are using to make your backgrounds? Photosynth or did you just pick those up somewhere?
” Here we got 1 sunset missile attack… very nice ” !!!
I know you’re speaking about light effects, and so on… but how americans could be so inclined for fascination about weapons, and just say so naturally “sunset missile attack : very nice”… ahahaha !
After all, and why not, you could choose a complete different and no warlike object… but mainly it’s always bullet, pistol, gun, helicopter, missile, etc… And it’ll never stop to amaze me, lol !
Anyway, very good tips and tut’, as usual !
Thank’s Andrew.
Hi Tehri,
I hope this message will not be deleted.
I think the missile attack object was used because of the specific shape that is hiding the closing points of the small “diffuse” and “specular” environment. Try to make the tutorial with the football helmet or with an apple from the Fresh Food pack. You will notice that the specular map and the diffuse one are closing somewhere on the object, giving a strange look. The missile has a conic top where those maps are closing, so it looks ok. Changing the values for diffuse and specular map width and height will help probably if you want to integrate a green apple, but also you will notice that in the end the apple looks like a metal apple. If you switch the blending modes and the opacity of the layers and you play with various settings, you will be able in the end to integrate other objects than the missile (let’s say objects built from some other material than metal).
Cheers,
I know exactly! All my work has some kind of explosion or something… I even edited someone’s wedding and was begged for no explosions… I have a very violent friend from Finland and he thinks I have aggression… haha. Great point, well taken!! I did make some flowers, but… I blew them up.
Mr. Kramer you should do a 3D kit with military aircrafts. It would be awesome!! Great tutorial
I have created a car model in 3dsmax….Can some one point me to a tut that show how to render the car paint shader that i have applied to it to a texture map…..I would like to use it with element 3d but i don’t know how to set this up…. Thanks
Hello VideoCopilot Crew, Just one question, Is there any way to create materiasl or shaders for Element 3D? Thank you Very much, greetings from Argentina.
And I´m sorry for being repetitive, but I just rememebered one thing, I just wannted to know if is there an estimated date for release of Building Pack and the Vehicle Pack?
Andrew Kramer,
aha, just when I thought, I’m good, I can take a frame of my movie and set it as the environment layer, I”m a bad ass, and then you give us this… I do wonder like the others, I like the process going on, tweaking this, mixing diff stuff; I have been layering elements, too, but so that I can get different pieces to animate independently of the entire model, in one instance, anyway. I put rotors on the halloween skull, flying skulls over kilimanjaro… had to be there. I wasn’t, im just sayin.. asante sana awesome tutorial, door opener…
Hey Andrew! Amazing! Just one thing! I´d like to learn how to make an environment map. Can you make a tutorial of this? Another thing, I think will be easy (and funy), a tutorial of “The bullet”, but using Element 3D. Big hugs from Argentina!
Very useful tutorial, as ever! Thank you. Would also love to see more E3D integrated into actual shot footage.
You are a nice man AK
This is a great tutorial, but it has a lot of steps, Lol!
Ask me How much i do Like u man
U are awesome i wish i be like you
creative ……keep it up
We all love Him
I think i am biggest fan :p
Does it matter what size you shrink those specular and diffuse comp to?
Not really !!! But Smaller the Speular And The Diffuse comp/layer : It will load faster and it is good for not use so much detailed on those things
Nice tutorial..
This December may be will get new Update from Most Popular Plugin From VCP Element As well as New Model Packs.
And One more thing Cant wait for new plugin Next year : Optical Flares 2
Andrew you should make a tutorial to help us create our own enviromental maps. Thanks for all the help and lots of blessings from PR
Hi Andrew this is my very first making the program:a littles

This is the awesome plugin that i have seen
These are the type of videos that make me want to start getting into VFX lol
awesome!
we use other compositing softwares at work but I still love after effects and regularly visit your website just to have some good news about AE.
I am following you since creativecow.net days!. and one thing I want to say you care about after effects more than adobe do.
why no more tuts on anything but element 3d… i cant afford it and since it came out your website has been useless to anyone without element 3d, bring back normal tuts
Although…2 out of 3 of the last tutorials do no require Element 3D…
http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials/depth_compositing/
http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials/alien_surface/
why cant people just be appreciative of what we get . . . for free, even videos including element will have hey principles and methods that transfer to other projects which will not use element.
Hey Andrew Begging you To Bring This Request To Prominence
How to fix this problem.
OR ANYONE CAN HELP ME ON THIS
Please Make a tutorial How to Animate a Moving Zet or something where the fire/flame should follow its back engine part like your Element Demo video zet ??
Cause when I tried to set these up like these
[ Trapcode particular connected with 2 emitters placed exact near engine where it should be & it parent with Single null 3D (container) ;
Null 3D (Container) >> effect - Separate XYZ Linked to element ]
Problem : When i animate X,Y,Z positions of element layer ; I think the null container should move as i parented its XYZ position with Element. That is the main problem ocuring.
I can see in effect panel – Null object’s attribute are changing when i animate the element layer. But its not moving in preview comp an inch so i cannot animate emitters connected to it
Or can i send you the whole file you can solve this out Andrew please ??
I have a doubt that is not the issue but I hope and I can respond, I have problems with the rendering of after efects simply not processed and the cursor is placed on hold, it is this?
great.. but i want just asking how to Making animation and Moving Objet in 3D Element …..??
thank you
3D stuff is quite scary for me to play with, but after watching Element 3D in action.. I’m getting confidence.. you are not just a genius, you are more then that..
BlesSings
I have a (offtopic) question for you, Andrew…
I really don’t have enough money for an Canon 5D Mark II, what can you tell me about Canon 550D (T2I) ?! Is a good camera for FullHD Movies?! You have other recommendations?
Thank you!
PS: Good job with everything you do, i’m visiting this site from your first tutorial…
This reminds me of a youtube vid I saw that showed how to animate helicopter blades in, say, Blender, and stick that over footage of an ordinary scale model kit helicopter. Can’t find it again, though. Anybody see that one?
Hello Andrew,
now you’ve discovered this technique, you can surely implement it in the next version (or update) of Element 3D!
Other wished for element:
- Deform objects (bending or 3d points of model shatter)
- Shadow casting
- Image based lighting as shown but simpeler in plugin.
- blur-amount option for environnement picture inside of environment window in element or indisde of plugin (keyframeable)
- option that sees for example logos or texts of different masks in 1 layer as different parts that can be animated with the multi object option.
Thanks & Have a nice day!
Christiaan
Do i need Cinema 4D or 3d Max to use element 3d?
Did i got an option to import moving Environment map ? (etc, .mov, .avi or using actually layer that i have in comp)
Andrew,
Your plugin is already amazing and still you are able to get it better and better ! I agree with Christiaan, now you know how to add IBL, i’m sure you can transform it to a new feature for your E3D plugin as a new tab : “IBL : on/off /advanced parameters”.
If you go further, Maya and 3DSmax will be useless !
Thanks for all Andrew !

Hi Andrew Kramer Where We Download The Helicopter 3D file.
And Where Do you download the Hdri Images Please Tell.
Cool! This plugin does work for Mac to right? Thanks

Hey Andrew,
Is there a way to fill a mask with 3d objects with element 3d? The “Point Cloud” option only enables mask’s outline to be covered with particles, but not the inside
Point Cloud Mode enables only points (as “mask” as you called it ) where the vertices are !!! Andrew told that. And If you are not familar with 3D softwares buddy then you should know A model ( even High Detailed model ) only designed from outside and it contains vertices (points) & Faces ( planes ) & Lines.
Point cloud mode enable only points ( vertices ) And Hide the faces & lines of the object.
So there is no inside points, any of the model have.
Hey Andrew!
Could you make a Tutorial on creating own 360°-Background-Images? That would help me a lot to integrate Element into my own footage.
Thanks!
hi , i need Element Model , where we can find ? (Helicopter)
Hey Andrew!
When will you be showing your favourite matte paintings from the challenge a few months ago?
Really keen to see them.
How do I import a 3D sequence so that I can apply this effect to it? Thanks!!
It was the Awesome Tutorial Andrew Kramer You Always Rocks.And What was the different between the environment tips tutor & This Image Based Lighting Tutorial
Hi Andrew Thanks For Tutorials I love You
Man… i wish i could afford element 3d :\

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2sfppQVQwk
The best university thanks so much
Hey Andrew,
this looks pretty good! But, to go to the next level. How can we assign this to a “video based lighting”? A guess it’s a bit more tricky. But to do real animation, it will be necessary.
Hi Andrew,
I have challenge that is sort of related to this tut. I want to shoot a live action scene and composite 3d elements into the scene that reflects the actor. would it make sense to shoot a second angle from the perspective of the object? and can I make that into an environment. What would that look like?
Hello Andrew,
Fantastic plugin.
I tried to link the diffuse/specular layers to the element layer for matching animation of position and rotation of that layer. I used a pickwhip to link Particle Replicator>Position XY/Z for the lighting layers to the element layer and it works, but it doen’t work for Rotation X/Y/Z.
I had to link those rotation parameters by pickwhip to a Null, instead, which works. Any idea how I can get the Particle Animator>Rotation X/Y/Z of the lighting layers to link to those of the element layer – and work? I am baffled.
Hi Andrew
appreciate for ur all works first.
here is a question. I double checked my OBJ file regarding to where object’s pivots are in 3D program(MAX), but the each group objects in “element 3D” are not right on the spot for rotating. like propellers, tank head and so one. hope there is gona update more tutorials instructing object control in detail.

Hey Andrew,
First off I wanna say what you`re doing is great and I own most of your products,but I must ask where you get your 3d models like the helicopter and the jet?
Andrew, do you create that model?
hi andrew,
Is there any possibility of Unwrapping the materials using element. Just like 3Ds max. If there is any possibility just make a basic tut for that. Its my kind request.
Hey Guys, Free Unique Element 3d “Interior” Pack made by me, for everyone! Have fun! Huge Respect for every VC member!

Hi Andrew and everybody,
I’d like to know if we need a simple cylindric panoramic photo, or 360° pano equirectangular (Spherical) but, above all, always HDRI or you can generate Image Based Lighting also from a normal photo correctly esposed (but of course with a limitated dynami range)?
Many thanks for answer!
Hallo again,
I think is a good idea also to replicate a Sun light direction (that you can see in you HDRI 360″ photo) adding a further light (Parallel) or replacing the Ambient Light used in this tut. This is very helpful to CAST RIGHTLY SHADOWS on scene in relationship with a true sun position (in your HDRI scene, of course, when you HAVE a HDRI 360° pano taked in the same location (and in the same time) you filmed you video.
Hey! Nice tutorial Andrew! That helicopter looks real and tough
how to perform this effect without the 3D element?
Hallo Andrew,
I’d like to buy the helicopter’s 3D-Model and the texture. How’s that possible?
Please answer to my question when you can,
Best Regards,
Atanas
I wish I where a genius….It looks like fun!
How do I get this image ( image light )
Can you use element 3d with AE 3d Stereo Camera Rig?
i liked the tutorial a lot,
thanks for it,
you are very creative
Fantastic tutorial, as always. I’m just wondering, if one were to use this technique and then bring the model into some live action footage, could I take a still frame from the live footage and use THAT effectively for the environmental background so the model would be more accurately matched to the scene? Because if that would work you’ve just opened up a whole new world of creativity for me!!
