  Form Lazers

  Posted by Dorian Heller on September 9, 2011 at 12:22 am

  I recently watched the video below, and was wondering how they created the lazers, I know they are using Trapcode Form which I have, but I would like to know exactly how to do this lazer effect.

  What part of it are you having trouble with? Tracking it to the scene? The look? The movement? The shape?

  Well I was having some trouble tracking it to the scene, I managed to figure out the laser bit, due to the fact that someone had released a tutorial on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVvF6PU_FZI&feature=player_embedded

  However, I was trying to use Camera Tracker and track it in 3D space, but I can’t seem to do it perfectly, here is the footage I’m trying to track
