Camera projections

As the most used technique in VFX industry, camera projections are needed in Blender! Earlier there was an addon called BLAM/Stuffmatic, which is no longer maintained and doesn't work with Blender 2.8

Please add camera projections in Blender 2.8!

BLAM is a camera matching add on. This is very different from camera projection. If you are looking for camera matching, BLAM has been replaced with fSpy .

If you're wanting to do camera projections (ie UV coordinates driven by the camera position) try the "Camera" output of the Texture Coordinate node. Also, the "View Vector" output of the Camera Data Node.

But it would be great if the "Texture Coordinate" node's Camera output would generate correct camera coordinates with perspective. This setup would also require that you could select another camera as Projector for the Texture Coordinate node. UVProject isn't perfect since it generates an UV map which are then interpolated.

Just add a UVProject modifier to the object and set the camera to be the Projector.
