In this workshop, Adobe Technical Support Lead Todd Kopriva shows you all of the ways that you can track motion in After Effects, either to stabilize the motion or to apply the motion to another object. Get up to speed on the new Warp Stabilizer effect, which makes stabilizing shaky handheld footage much easier than it was in the past. Plus, see how to use the point tracker, which is the best way to stabilize motion in After Effects CS5 and earlier, and is still useful for some purposes in After Effects CS5.5. Finally, Todd shows how to use the mocha plugin—which ships free with After Effects—for scenes that can't be effectively tracked using the point tracker.
Topics include:
- Overview of motion tracking
- Manual motion tracking
- Planning and shooting for motion tracking
- Motion-tracking utilities from third parties
- Motion tracking with the point tracker
- Motion tracking with mocha-AE
- Stabilizing motion
