Hi, in Earth Studio Tool 1.1, we could use Blender for the compositing. But, 1.2 version, you used AE instead of Blender. Is it possible to use Blender for compositing and masking? If so, it would be really helpful.

[@ImagiscopeTech]

Yes you can. I'll do a tutorial on it but it is basically the same as before.

I have created an overview of a long route on google earth studio (600km by bike) and I wanted to know if there was an alternative to put the track points all along the way? My camera is very aerial and it's not a big deal if the track is not accurate. Thanks in advance

[@ImagiscopeTech]

For long shots (camera is far from path), you don't have to use as many trackpoints. If you start to zoom in closer to the path, you'll want to add more for better accuracy.

[@ImagiscopeTech]

Try exporting the 3D tracking data again. Sometimes it creates a file that has weird data in it. See if that works. Also, if re-importing, make sure the anchor trackpoints (first) stays the same.

[@IndustriegebietAlzeyOst]

@@ImagiscopeTech Looks like I found the issue - I was using the camera field of view attribute in GES, set it from 20 to 50. This seems not to be imported into Blender. Am I right, any plans to include this? Many thanks again!

[@ImagiscopeTech]

Correct. I am working on a formula to convert the camera focal length. I have yet to find the right algorithm. I'll keep trying.

[@ImagiscopeTech]

I have built an algorithm to covert the field of view (fov). It will be included in the next update (version 1.2.3). You won't have to do anything, it will just pick up the info from the Google Earth Studio file (JSON). You will be able to have as many fov's you want. Coming in a few days.

[@JiaqiS]

Finally got time to take a closer look at the tutorial: lots of improvements! The new green screen mask seems as if a direct answer to my problem a few months back when rendering routes in Rome! The compositing in AE significantly reduces the workload that would have occurred if compositing in blender. I will have to be more familiar with blender to make use of the new object feature (the rotating art piece) One thought: I noticed when rendering that google cloud does an excellent job in terms of quality if rendered in 4k video. I don't know much about the limits to blender but could you not render your route as a 4k video on the cloud and then insert it into blender? I think they currently have a cap of 10 minutes per day for cloud video rendering but nobody will probably reach that limit anyways. This will also significantly reduce the time spent waiting on exporting for folks without a good GPU

[@ImagiscopeTech]

Cloud rendering: it's a great addition, however, the compression of the video file make "difference matte" (i.e. green screen) difficult as there are many artifact changes in sequential frames. FYI: I've reached the limit several time. Lol

Amazing! Is it possible to reintroduce KML Export in addition to 3D Object Export? It would solve the animation issue of the track size to compensate for camera distance. The 3D Object is limited to a fixed size and zooming out a lot will make the track disappear. Also the 100 m limit size for KML Export seems to be too low for very large zoom outs. The workaround is the still use the mask created in Google Earth as it offers flexibility for the mask size.

Hi there, thank you so much for the video. I'm following it step by step but when it comes to the "import KML file to Blender" step, in the "snap to" bar, I don't see any track points shown there for me to choose from. Could you please help? Thank you!

Try switching to English in Blender. Some other languages cause issues identifying the trackpoints

@@ImagiscopeTech Thank you so much. I tried my windows laptop and it worked. I thought it was the system. On my Windows laptop the language was set to English. I’ll try setting the language back to English on my MacBook and see how it goes. Thank you so much!
