Overview of Tracking In After Effects Tutorial
In this training, I break down the confusion around the different tracking tools in After Effects and show you exactly when to pick each one. We start with the basics of moving track positions and then move into more advanced stuff like handling rotation and scale shifts. I have been teaching visual effects for over two years, and I have seen firsthand how these specific skills help editors get hired for bigger, better-paying projects. I am giving you the exact same scenes I use in my work so you can follow along step-by-step, or you can even bring in your own footage to practice the techniques as we go.
We also dive deep into stabilizing shaky footage using the motion stabilizer and my personal tips for making fiber stabilizers look natural. The real highlight for many will be the 3D camera tracker section. I will show you how to take that tracking data and move it into Cinema 4D, allowing you to place actual 3D objects right into your live-action scenes for an incredible final look.
