Hey!
I already follow you since... well, a while... and I love your tutorials!

I already made it through your file and resources and now I'm trying to apply it in another footage and this time on a hand (just to complicate it even more hahaha).
So, I already made my illumination map but I have an issue when copying the tracking to it... when I do, it kind of scale down the map. I already checked if the compositions are with the same size and everything is looking fine.
Any tip to fix it?
Thanks a lot!!!

to all the people having problems....dont look to this man for every answer - you will never learn. You have to start thinking based on what you know - all of it - figure it out yourself. Not trying to knock anyone but its a creative process to be an artist like Andrew - if you ask every question you are not being an artist you are being a clone - cant say enough good things Andrew - shares his knowledge without trying to ripp you off. No adds in his tutorials says it all. Best of luck folks

Coach Design Studio: Solution!
10 years ago
Hey guys, I see that a lot of us have the same problem... And here is a solution!

Basically, we all get the perfect tracking, but when we paste it, it just gets messed up, right?

So what do you do?

When you begin, instead of making a new composition, just take the video and drag it to the 'Create a new composition' button. This way, all the comp setting will fit the video and there will be no problems with the tracking data you import.

Hope this helps.

Andrew, thank you for another amazing video. You have such a talent to teach people about some features, and literally point them in the right direction while showing off a minimum of you actual skill and expertise, making it look easy. Please, keep up the good work.

The more I do this walk through the more I get pissed off. I have perfect tracking, yet every time I copy past the tracking data to the Illumination Map, it will never track right. I go to the first frame, copy paste. Not correct. Go to the last frame, copy paste, not tracking correctly. Either you have some defaults set up that you aren't telling us, or you are using a completely different version.

My illumination doesn't track at all with the copy paste tracking information. It's not the right size or anything.. lol

I'm doing each step as you do, yet not coming up with the same tracking copy over to the illumination map etc. I can't get past this step.
Jonas Xympf

I had the same problem.
In mocha, under the tab "layer control" there is a button at the bottom of the tab that says; "push the surface(s) to the corners of the image" when you hold the mouse over the button. While having your tracking layer selected, click the button and then export your tracking data.
It worked for me
Josh
11 years ago
As I assume multiple people will have this problem, I actually came back to this video when I figured it out.

Although perhaps not the best solution, I just retracked my video in mocha going forward, align, then export the pins. Then with that set, I go to the start of the illumination map and paste it.

For some reason that worked for me. Wish you the best of luck.

John D

Ok, so I have read through all comments on this tut and searched google and i can't find an answer! My first motion track works perfectly and everything seems to go swimmingly until I have to paste the tracking data onto the illumination map. The illumination floats away from his face and moves as if the two aren't related. I am working on AE CC and had trouble finding the align surface button (which someone in the comments found so i dealt with that). Anyone know how to fix this problem!?????

Hey, great work. First time i did it, it worked fine.

After you are finished with the color curves. I copy and pasted the tracking data onto the illumination map but it doesn't seem to work right. The map layer shrinks considerably and gets deformed. I checked to make sure the corner points were lined up.

Dude, rewind, pause, google search. Repeat steps as required....That's what's wrong with people now, NO time to do any hard work themselves, NO time to try and learn the HARD way (better way).... If you don't know what's going on, try and FIND OUT for yourself, not trying to be a dick, but I see WAY too many posts like yours where the person is asking for a total step by step breakdown of EVERY SINGLE mouse click, but they have NO working knowledge of the program involved in the tutorial. IF they did, and educated THEM SELF beforehand, then they wouldn't have so many questions, get it?

For me in AE 4 - after pasting the corner pin data from Mocha, the illumination layer looks as if it's hovering a few feet away from his face, instead of conforming flush with his face like in the example.

I've tried using both more and fewer points in Mocha, as well as x-spline vs. bezier; but always end up with the same results after pasting into AE.

Anybody else have this problem?

Your tutorials are very professionally crafted and they provide a tremendous amount of information, support and knowledge to our next generation digital artists, independent filmmakers and beginners. Even the ever popular "Demon Cam" gives a sense of magic touch to the mobile platform. I would formally suggest that putting that app on blackberry and android format for flexibility. Not all of us are iPhone users.

Thank you for sharing and more power to you Andrew!

This is awesome, you should make an update for Element that allows you to work with dynamics and collision particles, I know it would be hard but it would be amazingly cool !

Hey, Andrew, great tutorial! you never fail to impress!

One nit-picky comment... Something in your video compression caught my eye. Every three seconds or so, the image "pops" or jumps. (I assume this is the result of a keyframe distance of something close to three seconds.) It's quite distracting to me, at least.

Never saw it before, so I'm not sure if you recently changed encode settings, or if I have simply been un-observant. Just wanted you to be made aware.

Anyhoo, thanks again for the tutorial!

This is a great tutorial and alws so interesting to learn from you. But i have a request, could you make a tutorial with a non-evil concept?? I mean something good and not evil. Would love to see another tutorial with an example of good, positive, love, etc. you know what i mean. enough of this evil stuff bro..Thanks
Love your work alws
Lawrence

It's not necessarily evil. Poor sam could be born with a rare defect which causes glowy cells to develop under the skin. I can see the movie now.
"Sam has always been alone...people shy away from him, and all he wants is a hug. He sees the girl of his dreams. Can he overcome his fear of rejection due to his defect, and meet the love of his life?"

That's the beauty of vfx work. You can take what you learn here and adapt it to any scenario. You can change the setting, the tone, lighting, or even how you use the effect to change it to a good thing.
