Video loops & clips. Do you know how much cool stuff there is out there? Just make a google search on it and you´ll be amazed. There´s lots of free stuff. And lots of great looking animations & live footage for a few bucks. With some creative approach, you can quickly and easily transform a temple with two pools, into a spectacular play of light.
What I did here, was to apply the water video clip to the Diffuse channel and then the same clip to the opacity channel to make the water surface semi-transparent. For the walls, I altered the video clip with higher contrast to have real black in it and just some lighting here and there. That secondary video clip was then applied to all the other surfaces ambient channel – like the walls and columns.
Since the ambient channel is selfglowing, it added really coool scattering lighting effect.
All this took just a few minutes to apply!
You can use video clips & loops beyong your imagination. I´m mean, there´s such no end to it. Whether it´s gun fire, rocket streaks, explosions, engine exhaust, rain, liquids, camp fire, candles, bullet hits, tv-screen or holograms – you can have lots of fun!
And you can practically obtain any live footage, for instance a filmed desert scene and mix it with a ufo 3D object.

Hi
Looks very cool! Where can I purchase the water scatterng video clip from -It looks like a stock video clip but who is the vendor? Is the tutorial video available on the Dreamlight Longe Site.
Hey John. Thanks! I believe it was from http://www.istockphoto.com. No, this tutorial is actually as is – and displayed here in full length… 🙂
What video? I’ve had several links to various pages of this type recently, but there is no active video here, there is a blank space under the title though, but hovering/clicking there shows nothing? (IE8) And no messages to say something needs to be allowed…
oh, hang on! tried on my pc at home and its there! think the works server blocks you tube probably! Yes very cool! will be getting this to try out… `¬)
Hey Martin, yeah – sounds like a YouTube block of some kind… Glad it worked out! Let me know how it turns out!
I have already paid for the 3D Graphic basic training with Paypal, but I have not heard another thing. Please tell me how I get the disk. It’s been almost two weeks and I don’t know whether my money slipped under the radar, or if you were good enough to send it to me and I just haven’t got it yet. That being the case please forgive this email and I will patiently wait.
Thanking you,
