# How to do a camera projection in maya?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-01-09)

I have a video, which I have tracked and solved for camera movement, which I have imported into maya.

Now that I have this scene, I would like to do a camera projection on the objects, however, I can only get it to work with a single image.

How can I project a video on my geometry, instead of a photo?
