nice thanks you! pretty clear! we would like a tutorial of how to manually adjust the surface when it drifts/slide ... because that was a an easy case to track with high contrast.
The reason it doesn't work for everyone, you need to check that the composite video or artwork has the same size and framerate, by going to Layer, transform, fit to comp. That was why the first 3 attempts of mine failed and then it worked, just my experience. Great Tutorial
I would of made the billboard layer 3d, brought in some lights within after effects to simulate the sun reflection from above, added a curves effect and brought up the blacks so they weren't as sharp as they're and more soft, then added a blur to the comp billboard layer to replicate the out of focus text behind the billboard you replaced where you can see the LA text in the background to sell the effect more. I've always just used after effects for tracking but thanks for dropping this tutorial ill definitely be experimenting with this.
Everything is working fine for me, but at the end when I Apply Export and preview, it does not show my image overlayed. What am I doing wrong here? All steps work well until this point. Great tutorial BTW. Cheers from Canada.
I'm glad you found the tutorial helpful. If everything works fine until the preview after applying the export, here are a few things you might want to check: Layer Order: Ensure that your image overlay layer is above the background footage layer in the timeline. Sometimes it might accidentally be placed below or hidden behind other layers. Visibility Settings: Check if the eye icon next to your overlay layer in the timeline is toggled on. This controls the visibility of the layer. Blending Mode: Make sure that the blending mode for your overlay layer is set appropriately. Sometimes, changing it to 'Normal' can resolve the issue if it was accidentally set to something else. Effect Controls: Double-check that all the effect controls and settings are correctly applied to your overlay. If keyframes are used, verify that they are set correctly throughout the timeline. Rendering Issues: Sometimes, rendering issues might cause the overlay not to display properly. Try clearing the cache (Edit > Purge > All Memory & Disk Cache) and preview again. If you've checked all these and it's still not showing up, you might want to retrace your steps or even restart After Effects to see if that resolves the issue. Hope this helps, and let me know how it goes!
I am trying to follow your guide step by step “but” for some reason, my graphic after setting up and trying to do tracking on the billboard pen tool and surface marks moves out of the subject. I tried for a couple of days, but the error same still there! I don't know how should fix it. By the way, I have checked all the icons on the track motion options including Persp.
Here are some suggestions to troubleshoot this issue: 1. Check Your Tracking Points: Ensure that the tracking points you’ve selected on the billboard are distinct and maintain consistency throughout the shot. Avoid areas with low contrast or those that might get obscured. 2. Adjust the Tracking Search Area: Sometimes expanding or reducing the search area can help Mocha better understand the motion. 3. Analyze Frame by Frame: If there’s a particular point where the track slips, manually adjust the tracking at that point. Mocha allows you to make keyframe adjustments. 4. Perspective Tracking: Since you’re tracking a billboard, perspective changes might be significant. Ensure ‘Perspective’ is enabled in your track motion options, which you’ve done. 5. Stabilize Your Footage: If the footage is very shaky, pre-stabilizing it before tracking can help. 6. Update or Reinstall: Ensure you’re using the latest version of Mocha. Sometimes bugs can cause tracking issues, which are often resolved in updates. 7. Check for Obstructions: If something (like a passing vehicle) temporarily blocks the billboard, it can throw off the track. Mask out these obstructions if possible. 8. Use Manual Track: If automatic tracking fails, consider using the manual track feature for challenging sections. 9. Refer to Tutorials: Sometimes specific tutorials can offer insights into complex tracking scenarios. 10. Seek Community Help: Post your issue in forums or communities dedicated to After Effects and Mocha. Often, professionals in these communities can provide valuable insights.
i have followed every stepand every tutorial but it did the same result. first time i thought it disappear, but turn out that it off set of layer. i don't know but i think the mocha tracking and the corner pin on the object that i used to place in tracking is different. so how do i solve this
Here are some steps to help you troubleshoot and solve the issue: Check the Alignment of the Anchor Point: Ensure that the anchor point of the layer you are applying the tracking data to is centered or positioned correctly. If the anchor point is off, it can cause the layer to appear offset when the tracking data is applied. Verify the Composition Settings: Double-check that your composition settings, especially the frame rate and aspect ratio, match those of the footage you tracked in Mocha. Any mismatch can cause the tracking data to be misaligned. Examine the Tracking Data Scale: Sometimes, the scale of the tracking data might not match the scale of your After Effects project. You may need to manually adjust the scale of your object layer to match the tracking data. You can do this by selecting the layer and pressing 'S' to bring up the scale property, then adjusting as needed. Use the Align Surface Tool in Mocha: Before exporting your tracking data from Mocha, use the Align Surface tool to make sure the surface and the grid are perfectly aligned with the area you want to track in your footage. This ensures the data exported will match your target placement in After Effects. Pre-Compose If Necessary: If you're applying corner pin data to a layer with other effects or transformations, consider pre-composing the layer first. Apply the Mocha tracking data to the pre-comp so that the tracking data isn't affected by other transformations. Adjust the Corner Pin Effect: If you're using the corner pin effect with the data from Mocha and it doesn't line up, manually adjust the corner pin points in After Effects. Sometimes slight manual adjustments are necessary to get a perfect match.

That was the easiest explanation I have ever heard for this, many thanks,!
Thank you!
3rd video I decided to watch and it's the first that I made me get it right :) thank you!
so gald it helped you out!
Awesome tutorial! Thank you very much!

Noted!
Thank you so much! wonder video and very detailed.
Thank you!
Nice & easy tutorial
Amazing video, Thank you so much.
omg thank you this save me!
Thank you SO SO much It worked... It's gonna be used in my incredible future videos... 😎😎💖💖
You're welcome!
Super helpful!!
Also pre-compose the layer after that so that the movement and data is applied to the Artwork or footage you are comping in
amazing love it
I'm glad you like it 😀

Thanks You Brother
Thankyou, Best tutorial ive seen for a beginner to Mocha. What is the difference between Camera Motion tracking tool and Mocha please?
Glad it was helpful!

exactly
Good idea. You definitely could do all of those things.
@@RealVideoFx yesssssirrr
Let's talk bro I'm starting a company up if your interested in networking or maybe partnering up?
@@RealVideoFx Hello. You know AE on a pro level. Can you please explain how to track a road and add some lines all over the way. Thank you.
Fantastic
glad you liked it!
Thank you!!
You are welcome!
why is my pic is not showing after i press "apply export"??? the motion tracts are there, but it's like invisible..
try checking the anchor position on your image, sometimes can be off set to what the track image was. Slight adjustment should sort it right out
after i hit apply export it doesnt show my graphic into the wall that i am tracking wtf
Did you find out what happened?
Same
same problem
Every time I follow the steps, and apply the tracking data to the new layer it seems like the anchor point is off. Any suggestions?
Thanks sir

Make sure you pre-comp your new layer
When I go to use a video to replace it doesn’t match the board ?? is this only for image replacement ?
No, you can add video as well. You will need to add it to a new comp. But you can do video or images
How can we do it for a circle
Dude u don't said that the comp of replaced footage must be the same size of main comp. And why did u not make visible bilboard lights?
Meh…
good sir
Thank you

My mocha isnt showing my preview footage
But why were the five floodlights below the poster? What's the solution?
If you want to take the time out you can mask and track each Floodlight out as well. 👍🏻
when i apply export the graphic offsets from the footage
you will have to go back in and re-adjust the lines in mocha
i cant find the create tracking data after 4:41 someone helps pls
Make sure to save the data when you leave mocha.
If it is "slipping" (the corners) what do we do?
scrub back and manually adjust the lines and go frame by frame.
@@RealVideoFx didn’t work
@@joshwilliams6517 are you adjusting the anchor points as well? Those have to be adjusted also.
BLYAT IT GOS TO FLOR
Is "EVES" your real last name lol? Never saw someone with my same last name
Yep!
Why tracking do not follow the motion?
Make sure you have a good area selected. Also remember that mocha is a planer tracker so you need to track the surface area then replace.
Try to give raw footage to your viewers if anyone wants to try
Billboard in after effects doesn't have same ratio with Photoshop .....
what do you mean?
