  Applying z depth to a 2d tracked data.

  Posted by Elia Kremennoi on March 4, 2017 at 8:53 am

  Hello.

  I have got a footage with 6 objects which differ in Z. It’s a hand-held shot from one point, the camera doesn’t move much. I’ve tracked objects in mocha and created a null for each. Now, if i move a null in Z direction it loses it’s objects. Since all of the objects will be connected with lines i need to differ them in Z, so i could get correct depth of field.

  Any clues?

  Thanks in advance,
  Elia

  How do you plan to make these lines with depth of field?
  If the objects don’t change position in z space, but just move in x and y, why not just make your blur on the lines and fake it?
