Not Matte-Painting, but definitely virtual environment work.

He seems to have a grid in AE (like a real 3d space) ... I haven't found that ... anybody an idea? I'll just keep on looking in the meanwhile :roll:

If I remember rightly (been a long time), you will need to make your layer a '3d layer' before you can view using a 3d camera.
