  • AE Camera Tracking to Cinema

    Posted by Simon Roughan on February 19, 2015 at 12:15 pm

    Hi everyone,
    I am having real problems with the workflow between AE and Cinema.
    I have some footage of the Brooklyn bridge and I want to insert a 3d object into it.
    I track the footage, then make a camera and then export to Cinema. The track is perfect, and when I select create null and camera, the null sticks exacktly where it should. But as soon as I open the cinema file, I see the horizon is way off what it should be.

    Can someone tell me what Im doing wrong? The footage is really not complicated. Here is the footage.
    Perhaps someone can try it and see if they get a better result. I am at my wits end…

    Thx in advance

    Google “AE Camera to C4D” and watch some of the tutorials. It’s a matter of realigning the imported AE camera to the C4D perspective, and it’s easier to watch someone do it then try to explain it here.

    Hope this helps.
