Rotating an image around the z axis

Post by xfxrory »

I am using Anime studio debut 6
Is it possible to rotate the camera or image plane around the z axis

I can get an impression of this if I shrink the image down along the y axis but would like to do this as if the image is distorting because the camera is panning down and rolling away from the image

thanks

Z axis layer rotation would be rotation tool (3).

Oops Thanks slowtiger my bad I meant tumble x so that the image distorts with a vanishing point centre of screen z being the vanishing point

I see that if I scale it centre line it has the same fx so I presume this is the only way?

Slowtiger is right. Rotating in Z axis is the normal rotation. I'm not sure, but I think in Debut you can't rotate a layer in "3d" (Y and X axis).

Yes, all the pro versions have 3d rotation, 3d space and 3d camera.

That is awesome will certainly move to the pro version once I have a good feel for Anime Studio debut.
I do content production video and I see huge potential for this ap.
