[@gvuprise1465]

I would want to see more tutorials like vampires, zombies, or even monsters

[@nabeedanish]

maybe for some 3d character face , maybe some meta human, Some cuts on face . this tool is by the way amazing

[@RobertoPerkasa]

for god sake, your explaination on the error that your .psd layer not moving (and it should have a same timecode) is brilliant! was having that problem and try many things for hours and finally i could make it after seeing this video. thank you very much! you saved my day. subscribed!!

Wow, this is incredible! I absolutely love it. I watched a lot of tutorials, but yours is by far the best.

[@dodmedia]

Thank you so much 😀

[@msnspy]

I needed that !! My clip was not tracking as well and what i did is that i added the tracking data as a corner pin to track it 🙌🏻

[@pbx3387]

[@SANJEEVKUMARGUPTA]

I was looking for this role of moch 2021 , but I haven't seen anywhere, thanks for this superb video . Love from India🌹

[@SANJEEVKUMARGUPTA]

In Ae , When I check mark the apply matte option under matte, the overlay png file disappears, why so, please help me out if you have time.please , I have been trying for 3 days

[@dodmedia]

Have you tried pre-composing the PNG and applying Mocha to the precomp rather than the PNG directly?

[@soumyadeepdas8638]

When I going to stabilize after mesh track and when check mesh warp and high it misaligned again and again. How to fix it?

[@aimon121]

as a photoshop power-user looking to get into vfx, I will absolutely abuse the living hell out of this information xD thank you for the amazing video!

[@francescoiaia2o]

Hey! Where are your 1M subscribers!? This channel is fantastic!

[@dodmedia]

Great question! You can help by sharing the video 😎

[@usamasarwar3437]

You sir are amazing! Thank you for showing the fix for that glitch at the end, I couldn't find a solution for it anywhere

[@imvisuals215]

Love this plug-in! I have been raving to everyone about it! Great tut

[@MickeyCuddly]

Man it's great tutorial and you definately got style in explaining information, thanks!)

[@dodmedia]

Glad it was helpful!

[@leonkennedy7776]

I don't have the MESH feature in my Mocha Pro. Help please? Am I missing something. There is only perspective.

[@Stinger-x6e]

I really broke my head in search of an answer to the question of why my frame is static. I don’t know how you found this solution with clip timecode sync, but thanks. You are the best man, thank you very much !!!! Like and Lifetime Subscription))

[@gvuprise1465]

I love your content and something about you is so unique. New Sub

[@SR_PRODUCTIONS]

mines didnt change to that mesh you have, it stayed the same

[@VideoBlogHAL9K]

the mark on the nose moves, can it be done better?

[@dodmedia]

Oh for sure. You could spend a lot longer than I did so it's more accurate. Or you could put a few dots on the actors face to make the motion tracking WAY more accurate and then remove them in after effects after you've tracked the clip

[@VideoBlogHAL9K]

@@dodmedia yes I agree

[@GigantusTesticuelus]

Keep at it mate. Cinema is for the people now

[@spclights]

hello I tried in a thousand ways but I can not apply the texture to the scene, in mocha I regularly create the mapping of the object with the mesh when I save and step ada ftere effects ache seguenso passes step by step the procedure does not create any deformation and movement to the object in which I want to apply the effect thanks

[@rickyfonseca4714]

Had the no tracking problem , used premiere to trim the clip , worked well thank you , was struggling for 2 hours

[@SANJEEVKUMARGUPTA]

did premiere pro worked well ?

[@designexstudios]

What is the name of this plugin/extension you use at 10:09 ????

[@dodmedia]

Video Copilot's FX Console. It's free and amazing. Well worth getting!

[@MarioDiazDelgado]

But what if the subject turns around

[@vkeditx09-gd3dx]

is this possible in avid media composer with mochs pro plugin???

[@Bullitt6801]

not working - it is warping but floating. Somehow the track data does not get transported

[@heylou]

this is the best tutorial on this!!! thanks :)

[@dodmedia]

Glad it was helpful!

[@No_Plastic]

Is t his an acting practice or a tutorial? thanks for a video thou.

[@МатвейКлягин]

I've been redoing this 3 times, but the overlay layer doesn't seem to react to Mocha Effect in any way.

[@gniloy_paskudec]

Have u found the solution?

[@МатвейКлягин]

Yep, it seems theres kind of glitch which happens if the layer is trimmed.

[@dodmedia]

Did you get the part in the tutorial about the clip and layer needing to align? An easy way around this if you're trimming a clip to set in and out points is to precomp that clip so the precomp has a 00:00:00 starting time code value

[@gniloy_paskudec]

@@dodmedia find that solution, but got another bug, lol - the mask gets smaller when I'm copying it on second layer. So bugged soft, don't know how to work with that

[@BruceFloyd]

Excellent tutorial! You're a great teacher.

[@dodmedia]

Thanks Bruce!

[@blopp6240]

Did everything as on tutorial but it doesn't work for me

[@gutlauninger]

the wound on the nose does not stick

[@ZeroCool22]

And if we have an object in front of the one we wanna track?

[@dodmedia]

I'm guessing it's not always behind or you wouldn't have much luck tracking it.. if you have an object that passes in front of your tracked item, you can track that object then place that tracked later on top of the thing you actually want to track and since Mocha is a planar tracker it'll use the top layer to ignore in the tracking data of the lower layer 👍👍

[@ZeroCool22]

@@dodmedia Very thx, yeah, is a door and a person is walking in front of it in a few frames, i want only track the door to put some text on it.

[@mica.motion]

Thanks, the timecode thing saved me... Why it's so complicated ? How did you find it ?

[@dodmedia]

I scrubbed along the timeline and noticed it was doing the effect later on so I tried aligning the two and it worked. Super easy workaround is to precomp the clip and then track that precomp instead

[@onuruysal111]

There is something I am very curious about. What plug-in did you copy the clipboard to Photoshop?

[@TheProVideo]

i just got my Moca Pro with your discount code Thank You . Can you make a video for How To stabilizer car footage? I can send you my video file if you want, you can use it in your tutorial . let me know thank you

[@dodmedia]

Great idea! Shoot me over a download link on my website contact form and I'll add it to the tutorials list 👍👍

@@dodmedia great i will text you on Instagram ✌🏼

[@mattpettit3382]

Great tutorial! Is there a way to make the reference frame not at the start? I have a shot that zooms in so I want to add my photoshop point at the end of the shot? Thanks

You have a very good voice , use that insread of making yourselves appear all the time wich is really destracting when watching a tutorial !

[@damienanderson4209]

great content!!

[@nevtug]

You are awasome sir!

[@joshlorenzen]

I did everything you did, but my matte STILL doesn't track. It just stands still on every frame :O

[@dodmedia]

It might be the timecode of your clip causing issues. Try precomposing the clip then tracking that precomp instead of the clip directly

[@mouadhboukefa560]

it worked thank you so much

[@dodmedia]

Glad it helped

[@AaliDGr8]

Can u do it with lockdown plugin with overlapping object plzzzzxxxx

[@aestheticworldwide3250]

this. is. insane.

[@adambrawerman1675]

Great tutorial. I’ve used Lockdown in the past, but this looks potentially more powerful and less glitchy. How would you handle adding bruises to a side of the face that was not exposed until you turned your head?

[@dodmedia]

I'd split the clip into a new layer from the moment the bruise is fully exposed, track forward with the bruise image, and then reverse the moment leading up to the bruise reveal from when it's first visible, so you can essentially track it forward that way too, precomp then re-reverse it. I'm sure there is an easier way but that's the immediate problem solving answer that comes to mind 😂🫣

[@adambrawerman1675]

@@dodmedia Right on, I was thinking something similar. Thanks!

[@LostAndHangry]

How does Mocha compare to Lockdown when it comes to tracking?

[@dodmedia]

No idea, I've not used lockdown

[@alideep9656]

Thank you

[@KaceyBakerFilms]

Hello. Thanks for making this. May I ask, once you’ve racked the mesh is it possible to add smoke to the surface… so the skin emits smoke and mist?

[@uppityimprovsoc]

Great tutorial. I got it to work perfectly to where you ended the video. (Instead of saving the photoshopped bruise file as a PSD I did a .png and it worked fine.) Also. I got it to look and track perfectly on the timeline as you did, but when I exported through AME to mp4 the bruise floated all over the place. BUT when I exported through RENDER QUEUE to AVI it was perfect. The file size of the 8 second clip for AVI was nearly a gig and the mp4 was only 12 meg. So I'd obviously prefer to have the file as mp4. Have you been able to export through AME successfully to mp4?

[@dodmedia]

That's super strange. As a workaround you could try dragging your comp into Premiere Pro, make a new sequence with that imported comp, then export from Premiere. Also make sure everything is fully up to date including your creative cloud app.

[@exmalcom]

Thanks, It will help a lot

[@frankcosgrove9958]

wow, thats amazing , I'd say the cpu is cooking running those effects

[@toddvanmeter]

I really appreciate your videos. You do a great job presenting information. Is that your real office or a green screen? If it is a green screen, where did you find the background?

[@dodmedia]

That's the studio. All the mess is just out of frame 😂

[@agoodjoe6910]

some sort of horror theme, say creating a monster face in photoshop with actor frame png, using powermesh to animate the face

bro thank you very much! but what is the name of the plugin from videocopilot? when you press shift+spacebar ??

[@dodmedia]

FX Console. You press Ctrl+Space. It's amazing

[@Breonnick]

I been messing with Mocha to make a shadow person effect via making a matte of the head then blur/ mess with the contrast until it looks right. If I were to do this with a Texture instead in a attempt to track facial expressions. Would it be a good idea to track beyond the head sense it's going to effect the entire thing?

[@Parsti]

the timecode mismatch was driving me crazy

[@dodmedia]

Easiest solution is just to pre-comp the footage then track that pre-comp 🤦‍♂️

[@DznMiguel]

Wathing this until the end knowing i'll never use this plugin

[@JackCopus-or6gh]

so this isnt a stand alone product?

[@dodmedia]

Which part?

[@taha_mirza]

Good tutorial, but please make an Ai model of your voice and speak nicely in the mic like humans do so that your videos don't sound like an annoying tired frog, and it will make your work easy. Unless you are talking like that on purpose to sound cool, but in fact it hurts ears

[@arshansky]

Can you redo this video... you make no sense and distractions are distractions for us too. I couldn't get anything to work.

[@dodmedia]

Sorry but no one else has had any issues, so I must be making some sense. Which parts did you struggle with? Try setting the speed to 75% and try again.

[@blopp6240]

I done everything from tutorial and can't get it working as well. Tried with precomp alternative still not tracking at all

[@EvilDogFilmsOfficial]

"can you redo this video" lmao some people...

[@dodmedia]

I know right? 😅

[@EvilDogFilmsOfficial]

@@dodmedia haha... I couldn't get it to work either though, the solution I found on a mocha forum was to first precomp my section of the footage and THEN track it and do the rest, that simplifies the whole matching times part of it when it comes to applying the mesh on the overlay you're adding on top. Thanks for the vids, cheers.
