  Tracker Trouble

  Posted by Kevin Lee on February 28, 2007 at 2:03 am

  I am trying to make a short clip of opening an envelope, pulling the folded paper out, and the rolling video clip being on that sheet of paper as it is unfolding. The problem I am having is the motion tracker. I cannot get the corners of the video clip to align with the two tracking points. It follows perfectly but is off to the side. Is there one small detail I am overlooking with the anchor point on the rolling video?

  Hi you can use an instance of the cornerpin effect to nudge the corner that is off back into place. Use as few keyframes as possible.
  Good luck

  Thanks pete, I did find out that the motion tracker point 1 controls the anchor point of the video, and fixed the big problem, but the corner pin might help with nudging in the fine tuning. Thanks for the tip.
