Exporting 3d to video sequence

I created a 3D model in Photoshop that I would like to animate. To do so now, I have to meticulously change each image, export as a PNG and then tweak and export more images. Once I have enough images, I import them into Premiere Pro to create a video sequence. Is there a plug for Photoshop to animate and render out to a video sequence? Or is this brute force workflow the ony way to create a sequence.

 

By the way, I did try using the timeline in Photoshop but it has a major bug. You have convert a 3D image into Smart Object to use the timeline, but when you do, all the 3D infomation is lost.It tuns into a 2D object.  I am hoping someday that Adobe will actually understand how and what 3D imagery is.

 

Thanks.

Hello Ali,

yes, Photoshop can create a video from a 2D in it's timeline but it it is not possible to animate a 3D object in the timeline and export it as a 3D file. The problem is once you convert a 3D layer to a Smart Object, it turns it into a 2D object.

 

It would be a great feature to be able to animate the 3D camera and other 3D controls via keyframes, and export the timeline as a sequence. I guess this is a feature request as it would be very helpful to export a 3D animation directly from Photoshop.
