projection mapping onto a sphere

[thatmattrogers]

Hi everyone,
Are there any best practices when attempting to map video onto a sphere/hemisphere?

I've been asked about the feasibility of adding this effect into a current setup, but in truth I've never tried it. So any advice would be gratefully received.

thanks.

@thatmattrogers Very difficult but possible. I'd personally start with a grid map and lots of time for testing and tweaking. Really this needs a true 3D workflow. You might have to have a look at the 3D mesh projector actor too - but requires a third-party software/workflow. Ive not looked at this in ages though.

@skulpture thanks for that,

do you know of any good tutorials for working with the 3d mesh projector? just to get me started
