Video as Background

I know it has probably been mentioned before, but being able to use a background video as well as a static image would be a very useful tool.

    I may be not understanding the need. But maybe is more practical to just use 'green screen', then place the video in post production.

    render png series with alpha and composite it

    I actually render my individual characters and fore and mid grounds that way

    an example video

    Compositing with color key, etc.works OK, but actually being able to do it in Studio would have definite advantages as far as interaction between elements, timing, etc.

    nothing interactive in D|S sadly, are several animated texture scripts available using image series but they only work as it renders

    free

    are a few in the DAZ store too

    I use other softwares that do video and png series myself when I can, it's something that has always frustrated me about D|S

    Carrara, iClone, Blender, Twinmotion, Poser, many more do animated textures

    if getting DAZ characters into something too hard I just import animated renders on billboards with alpha instead
