  • Tracking – Perspective corner pin

    Hii I have a question about tracking.
    Im tracking a board (cutting matt) that lays on a table.
    The footage is 4k.
    One corners of the board is hidden along all the movie but the board has measuring lines on it so I can track a smaller area on the board without distructions and the tracking results are pretty good.
    But then when I use this tracking, the “target” comp has to be the same dimensions as the tracked area, otherwise it will stretch the target comp to fit the tracking area.
    is there a way to track the smaller but clean area and to put a larger comp so it fits all the board?

    I add a picture so u can see

    Thanks ☺

    Mocha works well for this–it was built to handle that kind of thing. You could also use the 3D Camera Tracker, if there’s enough camera movement–given the nice visible grid, AE should have no trouble tracking the table.
