    Hey guys. i never posted here asking for help but have learned a lot from this forum. and finally i have a question. what software can i use to detect movement from a real camera and give that movement to a virtual camera in C4D or After Effects. I saw a video with this technology but cant find it anymore. If someone knows some names or haves any suggestions, thanks.

    i have tryed a few , for a pc try syntheyes. just drop your shot into it, and hit go. it tracks real good on most of my shots. it also has a bunch of other tracking tools in it i havent played with yet. it does object tracking too. not free unlees you find a torrent or something. there one called voodoo camera tracker thats free but you have to convert your video into a image sequence first using other solfware like virtual dub

    SynthEyes is not free under any circumstances. Using a torrent is called “theft” not “free.”

    If you truly believe that all torrent use is “theft” then you really need to get a reality check there.

    Yes, torrenting software may violate morals and copyright laws, but it is not necessarily illegal (depending on where the download takes place) and it is not synonymous with stealing. I’ll give you an example. If I came over to your house, took your car keys, and drove off with your car, never to return, then yes, I just stole your car. However, if someone downloads a piece of software from the internet, it isn’t the original – it is a copy. The original is still in tact.

    But of course you say, that’s still stealing from the developer! Because that person downloaded the software, that’s one less sale that the developer would make. Wrong. Just because someone can get something for free does NOT mean that they would have paid for it in the first place. I’ll give you another example, I regularly download movies. Why? Because I don’t believe I should have to pay $20-$30 to buy it in the store before I realize that it’s utter shit. If I like a movie I download, then I go out and buy it. If I think it’s utter shit, then I’ll simply delete it and move on with life. Same with software, music, and the like.
