Yeah, this is my first time using the tool and I’m thinking my x, y axis just isn’t right.

I’m having a hell of a time figuring out how to lock these down. I’m watching the videos on The Foundry site right now. If anyone has experience with this tool, I’d appreciate any tips.

OH wait! I can just select all of the keyframes from the track data and move them at once! This will be an okay work around.

Basically, If I could move a whole null object and it’s tracking data, that’d be awesome…

okay, still having a hell of a time here.

I can parent the start and end of the beam to any null object that has tracking data applied. However, I have multiple objects within the comp that are all parented to that null object. What I’d like to do is have various beams connecting to each graphical element. I can’t parent the beam start/end point to the layer’s position properties because the elements are just parented to the null!

For example, I’d like lines emanating out from this stop watch to the numbers, but I can’t seem to figure out how to parent the beam position to those layers…

Sorry to just now get back to this.

Thanks Ted! Applying a mesh warp to an adjustment layer gave me just the kind of control I wanted. No idea you could apply that effect to an adjustment layer. Thanks a ton

I’d use an editing application for this where you can specify the length of the clip on import and then do a batch export
