    Awesome tutorial Aharon!

    One HELP, plz let me know if the motion sketch tool will able to capture the motion of my mouse in Z-Axis for a NULL object.

    In tutorial you showed that it captured X & Y Axis but how do I capture the Z-Axis? even though my NULL is turned to 3D layer & its linked with the particular’s position, I’m unable to capture the Z-Axis………Plz HELP

    Thank you for this awesome TUT

  2. Not unless your mouse can move through your table… Sorry, no Z-axis. Motion Sketch is XY (2D) only.
