Hello,

my name is Tony Stecca.  I work for an online private school in Ontario, Canada.
 We create 3D molecular models using software called Avogadro.  It exports 3D
models as POV-ray files.  I've had good success animating the models in the
POV-ray editor and exporting pngs to make a video.  However, our video producer
would like to import these models into Adobe AfterEffects, likely via Cinema4D,
as .obj files.

We've been able to do test imports of POV-ray's that are based on mesh objects.
That works.  However, the models from Avogadro aren't mesh(?).  The are
mathematical objects like cylinders and spheres.  Can I convert my models to
mesh objects?

How should can we use POV-rays in After Effects? Thanks.

If this isn't the right forum for this, please direct me to the right one.
