We've imported our image sequence into mocha.…Before we begin motion tracking however, I'd like to discuss the interface and go…over the basic parts, briefly.…I'll start at the top.…The main menus are up here, including File for Open and Save.…There are some shortcut icons for that also right here.…To the right are a number of tools used to create various splines to define a…curve which the planar shape will be attached to eventually.…We will discuss these in more detail as we go.…To the left here is the Layer Controls.…
Each shape we draw will be on a different layer and we'll use this once we have those shapes.…Now sometimes this gets a little bit crowded with all these menus, so I'm going…to close one of these, just so we have more space to work in.…Under the View menu, there are various panels which you can open or close.…I'm going to go down to Overlay Colors and just click that to close that, to…get myself more room.…It's important to have more room to work with in the Layer Controls Panel.…
