Hi,
i know. It's an very old post. But i am really intrested in do this myself.
We film without moving. We did not have boujou. Could you give me a hint how to place this texture?
I try to make a 3D layer. But this wont work very well...
Thx.

Thats really nice. Is there a tutorial for this? Are You planning one? Andrew Can't Wait.
Its been a long time. When are you going to make a tutorial for this?
Tnx a lot.

here is a link plus some tutorials for blender and ae to
Icarus which will do the job and is remarkably similar to boujou Did I mention its freeware?

Hi Eric.. Nice work.. How to use proper lighting matching the light source and shadow of the footage? I'm using 3dsmax9..
Okay so ever since Andrew posted that .pfd file about match moving I've been messing around with it, this is my first 3D match:

If anyone worried about the $10,000 (or even $1000) price tag of boujou you should seriously look at syntheyes. It is really robust for the price and Russ has great video tutorials on his site ssontech.com.
I don't always use the exact same software as Andrew K [i.e modo instead of 3ds max] but am able to learn from the concepts and processes presented then interpret them into my own pipeline.
With all the $$ you'll save you can order the whole video copilot dvd series, and still have money left over to buy some wine gums for the wife and kids. Unless you're 16 and then you'll probably want to eat the wine gums yourself.
James
AK, this is a great direction you're taking the tutorials

Good thing you use Boujou. I hope though we can apply our freshly learned skills to a cheaper app.
I hope this one will do the trick :

re: Speedbreaker...
The lighting on those clips wasn't very complicated... mostly just a single soft-shadowed spotlight and some ambient fill, with shadows being cast onto proxy "matte" geometry. I would really prefer to use Mental Ray for all my 3D stuff, but MR's global lighting doesn't play well with Max's matte material, so you've gotta do workarounds. As long as the lighting and shadows are in the same ballpark as your baground plate, it's amazing how much the simple act of 3D tracking and motion blur can cover up any inconsistancies.
Andrew:
Quick question regarding tracking HD vs. SD...
Do you find that you get better or worse results tracking from a high-resolution source clip? I've only worked with SD tracking so far, but I'm considering upgrading to an HD camera specifically to improve tracking consistency... Extra rez is generally good, but 3D tracking can sometimes get thrown off by "too much" data (and extra noise)... Thoughts?

I got some questions on the difference between the different Imagineer Systems application. I use mocha and money
monet is about Tracking, stabilisation, rotoscoping and compositing are a fundamental part of visual effects work
mocha is a stand alone 2D tracking tool packed with features that make the life of the effects compositing artist easier and less stressful. Now compositors can avoid the guess work and inaccuracies that result from painstaking and time consuming difficult hand tracking shots. The process of generating solid 4-point tracks, giving position, scale, rotation, shear and perspective matched tracks is sped up thanks to the next generation tracking. Once the track is complete, mocha is designed to export the data to the industryâ??????s most well known compositing and finishing packages such as Inferno, Flame, Flint, Smoke, Combustion, Avid DS, Quantel generationQ, After Effects, Shake and Digital Fusion. This gives the artist the freedom to finish their shots in the compositing application they feel most comfortable with.

That's not a problem at all. The import works similar in max and C4d, the only difference is that max uses a Z-up coordinate system but you can set that up in Boujou so don't worry, I'm sure Andrew will talk about that in the tutorial.
@Eric
wow, realy cool. How did you do the lighting on your test?

I personally LOVE boujou, apart from its rough UI it's an awesome tool, once you get acquainted with all the tracking stuff, it becomes your swiss army for any CG addition. It's really a GREAT tool and I like working with it .
Thanx Andrew!
.Thanx Andrew!
Thank you, Andrew, for going over this subject. I feel there is very little information and tutorials on match moving compared to other aspects of visual effects. It will be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I'm Berkan.
As I use C4d, I don't know how to use 3d max that much. So, i assume that I won't understand boujou tutorial.
If it's possible, I'm looking forward to see a tutorial in which you will show both boujou ve c4d together.

Hello Andrew,
Thanks for 3D motion tracking. I can't wait to begin playing with it.
Can you tell us a name of a free (or at least cheap enough) so most people will be able to do that? I'm sure we will be able to watch your Boujou tutorials, and try it with other programs.
And here is a little thing I did, not related to 3D motion tracking:

Working with Cinema4D now, still learning it actually, Checked out the Bonjure software and have thought about getting it in the past. I betting the upcoming tutorial will push me towards the buy. Look forward to seeing it. I really enjoyed the sample video with the cliff here. That was fun.
Hey all. Long time lurker, first time commenter...
I'm a CG professional by trade, but I can't say enough good things about Andrew and the VCP crew... I've learned so much about more After Effects than I ever expected to. And to hear that he's going to cover his tracking techniques is really exciting. I've done a decent amount of work with Boujou, but I can't wait to hear all of his sneaky tricks to streamline the process.
Here's some rough tracking tests I did for a music video project that never quite materialized a few years back (2005-ish). Tracked with Boujou, rendered in 3DSMax, comp'ed in AFX:

Nice Johnson. Like I stated before, learning matchmoving is very easy, since apps like Boujou are so powerful. I personally think compositing is the hardest step in the whole integration process.
When I say compositing, I mean the photo-realistic look.
Boujou, Maya, and Shake 4 are the apps I use to get my stuff done

Wow.. looks great, I might even dare say as good as Speed breaker..
I hate those people who watch a great tracking video and go
"Oh well you could have fixed the gamma levels from frames 8.5-11.2,
and the pixel at point 148,234 was way off.. please correct that, but other
than that it looks great.."
Bah! Phooey! Why can't they just give you the credit you deserve and move on?!
LoL, I mean the end user isn't going to even notice! I hope Andrew shows us
something just as amazing as your youtube clip there.. who knows the
possibilities with the Kramenator/Speedbreaker/Yimbo combination!

Hey Yimbo,
that was nice for the first attemp! The track looks solid, but you should try to set up the coordinate system right, it's much easier to work that way.
the quality on youtube is not so good, but I think I saw some flickering on the cg elements, you should try to render an ambient occlusion pass instead of global illumination. All in all good work!

Hi Andrew.
This are some great news.
I've been trying to figure out that myself :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOT7Bb6cDT8
But it's gonna be a lot easier seeing you doing some more advanced stuff, step by step.
I'm really looking foward to see it,
and the community examples.
(I think it would be great to have some section where we can show how your tutorials helped us, maybe a youtube links in each tutorial page, just an idea.)
see you.

Just a few things I noticed...
1. The matchmove slides around especially in the last few frames
2. I would have the camera on the dolly because having a hand held cam out in space doesn't really make sense.

@ Daryl Booth:
Well it really depends on who the final product is going to..
If it is for a small no-name company like Playboy or something
like that then go with .jpg, they will barely notice the artifacts
from the lossy compression, but if you are doing a big one for
a really important company like Coke, Pepsi, VCP, ThinkGeek,
Express, Bananas Republicans, or even Senator Obama then
definately go for the .bmp 24-bit non-lossy... [BTW if you hold down
the CAPS lock key while rendering from MS Paint, it goes MUCH faster.

That is so sick, I have been wanting to do that from the time that killer BMW commercial came out. Now...... Does any one have $10,000 that i could borrow????
I think it's fine that AK has decided to branch out from strictly AE. I'm tired of seeing people on youtube with their "home video" (bad interepretations) of AK's work. I'll give it to you if you tried your hardest and really care about the industry/art...but if you just go on here click "download project," open it and render it out and post it on youtube...you're not doing anyone (especially yourself) a favor. I sound like i'm venting...
Off topic, does anyone know if AK does his tutorials in HD? How does he get such crisp output. Even with Lossless Animation I don't get mine as crisp? Is it 16 or 32bpc? Even with 16bpc i don't get as crisp of output. Any help?

Here is a fantastic way to do motion tracking:
First, import your video into .jpg images
Then open up MS Paint [Start->All Programs->Accessories->Paint]
Copy and paste every frame into Paint, and then draw a line around
the object to be tracked on every frame..
Then use calculus and trigonometry to quantize velocity, acceleration
and angular momentum on every shot.. piece of cake..
Then you don't have to spend the $1,000 on Boujou..

Excellent effect, like everything that is made by you, Mr. Kramer. I??´m 16 years old and your website is the most helpful I??´ve ever seen. I??´m intermediate in After Effects and I??´m starting to work with 3D Studio Max. It would be nice if you??´ll make some tutorials those are using 3D rendered special effects from Max, such as missiles, comets, asteroids or anything to explode and fire. Thanks for you great free tutorials. I really find them useful. And of course, I love your jokes!

I think this video tutorial is going to be one of the coolest on Video Copilot. To me, integrating a 3d object into a video scene seems like the pinnacle of VFX. I've been wanting to learn this for quite some time.
That's cool. I could totally see a guy running from something and have the environment around him just collapsing!
I know you were just showing the original and final plates but the way you presented it just reminded me of a shot like what I described above.

Please make it a long tutorial Andrew!
We love listening to your voice, sometimes when I am at work
I gather my co-workers, just click on a tutorial and listen to Andrew talking..
there is nothing wrong with that right? haha.

Will you be showing how to match lens distortion or bloating on the lens corners in the tutorial?
Very impressive effect, I can't wait to learn more!
Thank you as always.

Very nice...would look cool with some dust/soil particles dropping when the ground disapears (even though it is a test shot!)
I am really glad that you are adressing more 3d based work with after effects integration as this is the most sparten area of information on the web right now.
Keep up the awesome work.

Andrew... you are an After Effects Superstar!! Thanks for all your brilliant tutorials, can't wait for this one!
Hi Andrew,
I can't wait till you post your new tutorial. I use Imagineer Systems monet and mocha, but I'm sure I can work around that you use Boujou
There are some mocha Video Tutorial for after effects:
