Does anyone know if it's possible to build an interactive 3D background in AE using Cinema 4D? I know almost nothing about it but I'm hoping we can use it to replace ray trace in some ways, especially because the lite versions is integrated into AE now.

Can it make 3d objects that are able to be manipulated in AE, or does all the animation have to happen in C4D before import into AE, and all adjustments made in C4D?
