  Highlight the way of passage of an object

  Posted by Florian Bouvier on February 12, 2013 at 4:35 pm

  Hello,

  I can’t find how to do this (without a full roto…):

  I have a simple object moving on my video (like a square : a sweeper), I want to “highlight” the path covered by my object.
  (This effect is to emphantize the cleaning produced by the sweeper on a surface !)

  I have no problems to track each corner of my object. In my idea I want to attach the two tracker to a thin mask (of the same width as my object) and use it in an adjustment layer.

  But it’s not the good way !

  Anyone have an idea ? to connect tracker to a mask or a “line” brush between two point ?

  Thanks

  Here is a script to connect Null Mask Vertex to a Null Object.

  It may help :
