  • Adding 3D object in a footage

    Hi people,
    I have a footage where I need to add in a Poser object.
    The camera is not still and I have tracked the scene using PFTrack and exported the solved camera motion data.
    First I tried importing both camera data and alpha keyed footage of the Poser object into AfterFX. It tracked fine but it didn’t look good with no perspective as camera moved.

    Then I tried to import camera data and background footage into Poser to have the 3D object keeps it’s perspective as camera moves, unfortunately I couldn’t find a way to import camera data into Poser 6.

    I’d be very happy to hear your suggestions to solve this. Thanks in advance.

    Im not sure about Poser, but with other 3d packages you can use Voodoo Camera tracker quite successfully:

    Maybe have a quick look on YouTube, there are some examples of using Voodoo, and also a few tutorials on how to get footage in. I primarily use Blender, but Im sure there will be a work-around somewhere along this route.
