If you encounter a door or a pass way that you think necessary for the 3D illusion try to build around it, like Steve Holmes presented. Although, I must say that most of the times you can get away without doing so, and just stick with a continuous plain.
Thank you so much for your tutorials Eran, you are truly an inspiration to me!
I tried a similar animation where a door is inside a notch of the wall.
Unhappily I can`t handle the Vanishingpoint tool to bring out this notch as an 3d plane. Even Aharons Tips didnīt help me.
