Hi, well, sometimes motion tracking can’t be so accurate but it does work very quickly. If you want this alternative method that takes longer but is more accurate then keep reading on. Now I’m not sure if im going to tell you this right because I have only experimented with it once and barely remember the steps I did. So, create a Black Solid (Layer>New>Solid) and make it comp size, then create a mask with the Pen tool over the license plate on the first frame by selecting the Black Solid layer in the timeline and pressing “M” and then set down the stopwatch on Mask Shape (or Mask Path if your using an earlier version of AE) then you animate the mask with the Pen Tool throughout the whole Composition. Now I think that there are some other extra steps to doing this but what you have now should be good enough.
If this didn’t work, I’m truly sorry for wasting your time, but this is all I can remember, Hope it worked!-Sean

I personnally don’t know how to do this but I’m pretty sure this product called Riot Gear by VideoCopilot is capable of producing a very similar effect, head over to: https://www.videocopilot.net/products/riotgear/ to see details about the product. Hope that helped!

Thanks so much, I tried this and it helped me alot! I made a raw composition using this effect, and I’ll probably upload it to YouTube and give you guys a link, I think its pretty cool but I can put a little more effort towards it. Anyways Thanks so much!
