Thanks Ross, I appreciate the advice. I’ll keep that in mind for future projects.
I may end up replacing the ground plane in Mocha and tracking the rest in foundry’s camera tracker plug, which seems to be giving me more reliable results than the AE camera tracking plugin. If you’re still interested, a low-res preview of the shot is here https://www.markusstone.com/hosted_files/BG_Plate.mov
The sign will be replaced, CG elements added to the bain marie and set extension outside with some CG fish and sharks.
Cheers
Markus
