Figure 16.12 Begin surfacing the polygon mask with a 2D Image node.
18. Double-click the newly added node to
open its Properties panel.
19. At the top of the Properties panel, select
the Foyer as the image. The other settings
can all remain at their defaults,
except for one??”Mapping. Change this
to Front, for front projection mapping,
as shown in Figure 16.13.
Front projection image mapping is one
of the most powerful compositing tools
LightWave has to offer. It enables your
3D objects to interact with your 2D
images in almost every way that they
can interact with other 3D objects.
Front projection image mapping works
by??”you guessed it??”projecting an
image onto an object. The image is
???projected??? from the camera??™s point of
view such that it would appear exactly
as though it were a background or
foreground image. Figure 16.13 The Image node with a
front projection map applied.
