  • Motion Track data altered from track point to null

    Posted by David Aguirre on July 12, 2015 at 5:47 pm

    Hey guys, this is kinda an urgent question, so I’d appreciate help a lot.

    I have been tracking the movement of an eye in several shots of mine (doing eye replacement), and all worked fine. Suddenly in the next shots I’m doing the track data is altered when applying it to a null object. I checked the track point itself and it does a perfect track, but when I apply the data to a new Null Object, this null object has a completely inaccurate position when compared to the track point. I’ve checked my previous shots and in all of them the track point and null have the exact same positions. Why is this happening in the new shots?

    Is your null parented to another layer? That could cause the issue. That is also another way to fix the issue. If the track motion is still the same but it is just in the wrong x,y position through out, just parent the null to another null and use the second null to line it back up. Not pretty but it should work
