brooklyn 9 posts11 Sep 2008sup everyone, heres the situation 30 min video, bg needs to be roto'ed out, hand held nightmare, constant pans, zooms in/out, strobe lights, etc....just started using hype's method of solids to mask using trackerViz!
now what i'm showing is just the first 3 mins.??? as u can see i have about 15 track points needing multiple tracking regions per chair vertex including those outside corner vertexs!!! so each space (vertex) between the chairs is tracked individually and these points go on and off screen continously, of course the actresses will be next, way next!!! lets not forget the crappy end tables, which i will do separately(should i?) very time consuming!!! after tracking and attaching the solids, i still have to go back and adjust the roto to fit!!! or should i go the planar rototracking route??? can any of u gurus out there lend a brother a hand???? this is my first time at this so be gentle!!!
peace

11 Sep 2008Just getting into roto-ing myself, and all I can say is WOW that looks like a challenge.
Can't wait to see what advice you get and how you tackle this crazy project! -
11 Sep 2008um, all I can say is that for you my friend, the nipples of mother hope have run dry..... To do this in AE is going to be one of the biggest headaches in the world, though it is possible. TrackerViz will get you a good portion of the way there, but there are many things like lens distortion, depending on your lens, that are going to make roto'ing all this a lot of "fun" for you. The best advice I can give you is this. Every shot is going to be different, so for every task, try the simplest approach, and go from there. With roto, the most simple approach is the most solid almost every time. And sometimes, you just gotta put your head down, drink some coffee and get in there. Best of luck! and keep us posted!

mahmoudnahmad 1,159 posts12 Sep 2008i love Asians, opps sorry back to reality, nice track you got there, but i some how think you can manage with a lot less (i may be wrong).
advice, you need to look for cross hairs, i can see you selecting a lot of color different but for example the floor tiles why not use + on there with a slightly bigger outer box tracker, that will make it much more accurate.
another point would be between the chairs, difference between black and red is huge, tracker with a bigger area of search can easily pick that up, along with trackerviz you shouldn't have any problems.
why are you rotoing this scene for, adding magic sparkles or something like that?
i am looking forward to your input to my knowledge library ^_^. gambatee. -
