Motion Tracking in After Effects

[Dylan Evans]

Honestly, im amazed at how closed minded some people here are. You clearly dont see what i mean by emitting in a curve, and reguardless as you will see if you read the rest of this thread a solution has already been posted for my problem. What would you know.

Just like to say a big thanks for your advice mate, sorted out my problem completely, got nice trails behind the drumsticks now.

Even better is that ive convinced my director to shoot at 720p down from 1080p but with double the framerate at 50fps, make things easier still.

Thanks again!

Glad it worked out for you. I’d recommend Mark Christiansen’s book Studio Techniques, where I learned that trick.

Hmm, that was our original suggestion. You need more discreet slices of time.
This gets a Duh.

Yea, i was always aware that it was a lack of frames leading to this problem, but I never for a second thought my sirector would go for a lower resolution. Having a higher FPS combined with the technique mentioned by Jim should have me completely sorted. So a big thnks to all the helpful suggestions.
