-duplicate the footage and call it Luminance Map.
-on the Luminance Map, add Black & White and Levels.
-increase the contrast so the rocks have clear light and dark areas.
-add Gaussian Blur around 5 to 15 px.
-create your dingo silhouette on a separate layer.
-apply Effect > Distort > Displacement Map to the dingo.
-set Displacement Map Layer to Luminance Map.
-set Horizontal Displacement and Vertical Displacement to Luminance.
-start with Max Horizontal Displacement at 5 to 10.
-start with Max Vertical Displacement at 5 to 10.
-make sure Time Displacement is OFF.
-if it only uses the first frame, precompose the Luminance Map with the entire footage inside the precomp.
-use that precomp as the Displacement Map Layer.

if it still doesn’t work, send me the footage and i’ll record a tutorial on how to do it for oyu.

Hey Man! For Hyper Speed you should get a nice 9950x and an Rtx 5090 and 128gb of ram;
This 3 component will literally unlock “Ultra Insinct Mode” in your pc, whatever you’ll give it, it will simply do it almost instantly, forever.
Avoid 4k at all costs and this setup.

hey man! in order to solve this 100%, i just need to know:

is the tracking null itself parented to anything, or does it have Scale/Rotation values in addition to Position?

If you tell me how you created/applied the track (e.g. Mocha, AE 3D Camera Tracker, point tracker, position track) and whether the null has Position only or Position + Scale/Rotation.

Lemme know, don’t panic, i’ll give you the solution after your response.

Or if you can, send me the projet file, and i’ll send it back fixed for you in a minute. thx!
