Hi Jan,
Boujou tracks 2d points in your scene. From these scenes, it calculates where it thinks the camera is on each frame. If it can do this, you end up with a good camera solve, and then can import the camera into your 3D or compositing program. You can export the 2D tracks as a text file with X and Y data for each frame. The tracking is much better than AE. I end up with a text file with position data. What I want to do is paste this position data into an AE layer’s position, and it’s not working. Mocha exports a text file that you can paste into AE, and it does work. I thought someone might have run into a similar situation.

Hi Jan,
Actually, I’m not trying to import the camera from boujou. In fact the shot we have does not have a successful solve. what I want to do is export 1 individual track, and paste that into the position parameter of a layer in ae. I can export individual tracks from boujou, but it won’t paste the data into ae.

Just create a backgound (objects – scene – background). Make a new material, and make your video clip the texture for that material. Apply the material to the background, and you’re done.

Hi,
We are using 10.5. We’ve noticed a lag in reading of files in various apps. Even just opening an AE file there was a noticeable lag. I think there is probably a setting somewhere we’ll have to find. It’s definitely a read problem.

Hi,
It’s Quicktime animation codec. 720 x 486, 24fps. I haven’t tried any other, this is the most common type used for us.
