PFTrack Tutorial - 3D Motion Tracking

3D Motion Tracking

Part 1 of a series of several tutorials on how to do visual effects seen in Oscar Nominated VFX films. More tutorials coming soon. This video goes over the basics of 3d motion tracking before adding materials in After Effects. This example taken from the Ipad 2 Hologram Effect.

@jfcvideo1 not sure what you did but try saving quiting and reoening. or in your top menu select "show autotracks"

[slbisScott]

i used to watch these videos and have no idea what you were doing but now ive actually gotten into this stuff more and i understand it!

[thevfxbro]

@danyaalbeg possibly varying frame rates in ur export and composition. or maybe it isnt aligned correctly

[thevfxbro]

@Mikhanator its different. no camera solve. 2.5d

[LukeEich]

What version of PFTrack are you using?

[NVENTURES]

@thevfxbro is PF Track the same as Boujou?

[thevfxbro]

@Dragonreviews360 camera tracker for after effects

I give you guys so much props!! You make it look so awesome in the actual video but it's a lot of freaking work >.< Good job!

Can you do this same thing with the After Effects new 3d camera tracker?

[thevfxbro]

@ReptileFx mocha is only a planar tracker. no 3d

[thevfxbro]

@claycruckosha i have the regular version

[thevfxbro]

@dirtybombmovie i love mocha. my last tutorial used it

[thevfxbro]

@ampcorp just move it off screen for the needed frames

[dallatorretdu]

Is it possible to use a bunch of points for define the X and Z of the grid?

[kayele]

im having trouble finding order in what to watch next... can u line them up or create a playlist or something

[TheHiddenOutcasts]

when I clicked solve camera the include auto features and include user features were darkened out so I couldnt affect them. user features was unchecked and auto features was checked. the window looks a ittle different so I think i have a newer version. what do i do?

[ReptileFx]

Is it also possible to track 3D Objects with Mocha ??

[thevfxbro]

@JNCProductionsXD its similar. but pftrack is a litle better for professional stuff

[htsk]

Ok, I have a question. Every time I track it nd save it for After effects... I open it in after effects nd the trackers are just in the center... they dont move w/ the video, as if i never track them...this always happens to me... on every tracking program including PFTrack... Don't know what it could be...
