Particle Replicator
Now that we've seen the limitations of Element 3D, let's take a look at its greatest
strength. Element 3D was originally designed to work with 3D particles to create
very cool and sometimes, really abstract imagery.
Dancing iPhones
Let's say we got really lucky and Apple hired us to do an iPhone ad; but we needed
to have it done, like, today. It's pretty easy with Element 3D. First, there just
happens to be a free iPhone 5 model for E3D available on Video Copilot's website
http://video9.videocopilot.net/efc5e19e65fe9ca2cbd9818d45ac92a1/

. First things first:
1. Go get this model and install it in your E3D content directory (the same
place we created the
BookModels
directory previously).
2. Now, create a new project (1080p, 29.97) and create a new solid layer
(named
Element001
).
3. Load up the iPhone in Group 1 of an Element plugin.
4. Finally, create a camera with all the goodies just as we did before.
