3D Camera Tracking In After Effects by Jake Bartlett

3D camera tracking is so much fun! It allows you to place any object into a video clip as if it were there physically when the footage was shot. It seems like a really complicated subject, but After Effects has a really powerful camera tracker that can make it a completely painless process.

In this class I’ll teach you how to shoot your own footage and what to look out for to get a good track. Then we’ll go over using the 3D Camera Tracker in-depth in After Effects. I’ll cover lots of different issues that you might run into when tracking footage. You’ll learn how to place an object onto a flat surface, insert a graphic into any part of your scene, and even how to composite 3D objects through Cinema 4D Lite realistically.
