    It’s been so long since I did a motion track, I have forgotten how to do it, and the Help file isn’t getting me there.

    We have Homer Simpson riding a lawnmower with a sign on the front, and we’re doing a motion track to replace his sign with ours for a promo. I have been using a motion tracker in one of the BCC lighting FX, but I am screwing it up somehow. I can get a perfect track, but it isn’t applying it to the graphic I have to cover the original sign. I have done this before but have completely forgotten how.

    I have the standard MC effects and BCC 3. No AE. Please help relieve me of my brain damage.

    Hi grinner – I figured out what the issue is. Our early version of MC Adrenaline (1.1.1 still) does not have that functionality. That’s why I was doing workarounds with it.

    We’ll have a new MC on 2.7.5 soon, so things should be a tad easier to do!

    Thanks for responding, though!

    o dude, just track in AE. The tracker in adrenaline is nothing to write home about or in this case, nothing to wait for.
