  • Matching 3D camera moves with actual camera moves

    How do you match a 3D camera move with an actual camera dolly move in order to have a logo or text appear to holding in place as part of a scenery. I see this done all the time in spots and movies. Any suggestions?

    It is typically done with a specialized “matchmoving” software.

    Here’s a link that describes the methods and differnt sorts of software:

    In a perfect world with large budget you’d film on a motion control rig that can export motion data that AE can import .. quite a of options if you search the NYPG at http://www.nypg.com (sorry – couldn’t get it to link!)
