Positioning layers in 3D space
- Now another way to create transitions in Motion is through the use of a 3D camera. But before we actually start animating cameras, we need to understand how to position layers in three dimensional space. If we look at the project I have open here in the layers panel, you'll notice I have a map build group and our title animation group. Now I'll turn the visibility of both on, and if I scrub here in the timeline, you can see this is our map animation here, I just added Los Angeles fading in, and then underneath again, we have our animated title. They're both animating at the same time, but we can make adjustments to that as we position things in 3D space. So if you look at the right side of the layers here, you'll notice this icon. And this is letting me know that this layer is positioned in two dimensional space. So I'm going to click on that. And now the layer is in 3D space. I'll click on the title layer to do the…
