  Track Matte that doesn’t move with Motion, ala ’24’

  Posted by Keith Moreau on November 10, 2011 at 11:37 pm

  I’m trying to create an effect, ‘ala’ ’24’ where a number of rectangles of independent moving video are on the screen at one time, surrounded by black I have been doing this with use of the crop tool, to put black borders around each of the frames of video.

  However, if I need to ‘reframe’ the contents of the ‘window’ with the Motion effects control, the surrounding frame changes in position and size, ‘tracking’ with the source video.

  I also tried using the ‘track matte’ effect, creating a box with the title, then using that as a luma matte. Same thing happens, when I want to reframe the video within the borders of the window, the whole rectangle changes and tracks with the original video, putting in the wrong dimensions and placement.

  I’ve tried most of the ‘matte’ effects, including garbage mattes, and then all move when I change the motion properties of the source video.

  Ideally, if there were a way to create a ‘track matte’ that would stay put, and what was within the matte was able to be reframed, that would be my solution, however, I can’t seem to find out how!

  Thanks for any advice.
