Placing Billboard behind an object

Back to Posts

I'm having a challenge placing talent behind a virtual object. I can't seem to place the billboard behind the object.

I'm tracking a physical camera using the 'TrackedCam_Unreal_Prev_3-Cam_3-Billboard' and using the tutorial: https://aximmetry.com/learn/tutorials/for-studio-operators/setting-up-virtual-sets-with-tracked-cameras/https://aximmetry.com/learn/tutorials/for-studio-operators/setting-up-virtual-sets-with-tracked-cameras/

My virtual set is from Unreal Engine. I'm using DE Composer 2021.4.2

Appreciate the help!

thanks

Make sure the Lock to Camera is OFF

Then Adjust the Billboard POSITION by which I mean ıf you move the billboard POSITION away from the camera you will see that it gets behind the virtual objects. In the sample scene of mine u can see that I positioned my billboard to start behind the Lower Left Corner podium. so If I walk there it seems as if I am behind that podium.

Hope this helps.

I was able to get this to work. I deleted my project, re-cooked my UE set and started over and it works.

thank you
