3D camera tracking in After Effects
In this movie, we're going to have a look at how you can use 3D camera tracking. To composite 3D elements from Cinema 4D Lite into video scenes in AfterEffects.

If you want to buy the full-res version, you can get that from ArtPetes.com, where they've got loads of really great aerial footage. And you can see here we've got a fly past of this building roof. What I want to do, is I want to composite my robots onto the roof, so it looks like they're integrated into the scene. And the way we're going to do that is by. Capturing the movement that the camera makes in this shot using a process of 3D camera tracking in After FX. It's very easy to do I'll show you how it works. You basically select the footage that you want to track and if you want to follow along we're in Chapter09_Start.aep. And you right-click…
