I am glad to see that I’m not the only one alone in this. I hope we can find a solution because for people doing film and cinematography this particular workflow could be a game changer.
I know that compositing is probably an easier thing to do in after effects but the reason that is not an option at this time is because the game engine itself allows for direct interaction between the objects so the video element can be made to look like it’s part of the same world with no motion tracking required perfect shadow catching and overall a cohesive look in the render between the background the elements and the lights and things of that nature.
If this can be sorted out then all of the steps that are usually required in after effects to make a decent composition can be eliminatedBy just having everything within the same scene in real time.
Not to mention for people making video games I’m sure they would have additional options for using video elements as part of their scenery and things of that nature that go beyond just TV screens and stuff.
