  Screen tracking for replacement in mocha ae

  Posted by Natalia Pokrovskaya on August 26, 2013 at 9:36 am

  HI,
  I have a scene with computer screens that need to be replaced. (video, 76 Mb: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2266352/1DC_4864%202K.mov)
  Started tracking the left one in mocha ae:
  – added a spline layer around the screen;
  – another spline inside it;
  – added another layer to track the man’s head.
  During the screen tracking eventually the track gets skewed (please see the screenshot https://take.ms/LvhFkm), I adjust it, but when I get back to the beginning of the shot (where the track looked ok), it’s all messed up! And so on, whenever I fix the start, the end gets wrong and vice versa.

  This is my very 1st experience with mocha, tracking etc, so please explain like I’m five )
  I watched tutorials, but I guess I’m missing some key points. What is the correct way to do all this?
