Join Ben Brownlee for an in-depth discussion in this video 3D Camera Solver (mocha AE & mocha Pro only), part of mocha 3 Essential Training.
…The camera solve module is designed to create a virtual 3D camera.…This is another module that's only available in this…stand alone version of Mocha AE, and in Mocha Pro.…It's not available in the bundled version of…Mocha you get with After Effects creative cloud.…And the controls are exactly the same in Mocha AE, and in Mocha Pro.…The difference we have, is we have a wider range of export options in Mocha Pro than…we do in Mocha AE.…Mocha AE can only export to After Effects, whereas Mocha Pro…can take out FBX data and hit film composite shop projects.…
The basic idea of the camera solve, is that we're using or…reusing add tracking shapes to let Mocha create a realistic camera model.…And the techniques that we're going to use to create…this, are going to be different depending on the camera motion.…So if we're working…with a nodal based camera transform, like a pan,…tilt, or zoom, we're going to be creating different shapes,…than if we were working with a camera that's…either hand-held, or moving on a dolly, or a crane.…
