3D particle "cloud" in Motion 5
Hi guys,
I am trying to achieve an effect like this in Motion 5:

It looks like tha orb in the BG stays still (it is quite uniform, so it doesn't have to move since it wouldn't show),
while the particles (replicator) are in 3D so you can move a camera around and get that very nice effect.
Of course, when adding a camera and rotating in the "ground" plane, I quickly discover that everything exists in a plane. It's 2D.
Both groups (orb + replicator) resides in 3D groups. I've also checked 3D in the replicator controls.
I thought at one instance that I could move the camera in between the replicator (the particle cloud) group and the orb and keep the orb in the background.
But of course that didn't work. And like I said, the particles are also 2D.
Is an effect like this possible to achieve in Apple Motion at all?
I'm fairly noob to Motion so I may be either a) trying something impossible, or b) missing something obvious.
