Importing Blender to After Effects

Not that it much matters, but I'm running AECS3 on Win XP. Anyway, what I'm trying to do is find a way to import 3d files I created in Blender 2.5 into After Effects. I've spent quite some time trying to find a script or something that will work, but without much luck. The scripts I've found are for earlier versions of Blender and may not be compatible with 2.5.

Does anyone know of a script that will either:

  • (from the Blender side) Export a Blender 2.5 scene/object in a format that AE will be able to import; OR
  • (from the AE side) Add a Blender export format* to AE's list of file types it can import?

One other thing: Why can't AE import .obj files? That's an extremely common (from my experience since I also do some work in DAZ, and have played around with Cinema 4D which is way out of my budget) format for 3d....

 

* The formats that Blender 2.5 exports are:

  • Collada .dac
  • 3D Studio Max .3ds
  • Autodesk .fbx
  • Lightwave .mdd
  • Wavefront.obj
  • Stanford .ply
  • X3D .x3d

 

Thanks
