Flying through Tracked 3D Text in Final Cut Pro - mTracker 3D Tutorial

mTracker 3D 👉 mvfx.co/mTracker_3D_tut
In this MotionVFX tutorial, Dylan John Dickerson will go over how you can fly by tracked 3D text in your scene with ease, by using mTracker 3D. mTracker 3D is an intelligent, automatic 3D tracker that lets you precisely recreate the 3D movement of the camera used to film your shot. mTracker 3D makes it possible to simulate the original 3D space captured by the footage and extend the reality by placing new objects within it.

I can't get this to work, I'm using the trial version of tracker 3d with default captions, I'm selecting the 3D ones and everytime I go into the select the position the text simply goes over the shot really big without any sense of the 3d space, I've tried several clips and adjustments and all do the same. How am I supposed to purchase something that doesn't do what I need it to do?

Great tutorial Dylan, how do I get my text to anchor to the surface it moves with the footage

[@jumpguyty]

same problem here.

[@rafestratton8019]

Got the same issue did you figure it out?

[@bradsmith4962]

Can this plugin be used to take out a background and replace it with another background as the camera is tracking and moving?

[@motionvfx]

Take a look here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZu1c5SEiJJmipY :)

[@Philonic]

What is the best way to place a title in the air? I have a drone shot over water that I want to adjust the text to be closer to the camera at the start of the shot and then to fly through the text as I move forward. It seems like The text is always placed a certain distance into the shot though, and I can’t figure out how to move it closer. Thanks!

[@motionvfx]

Hi Bryan, you can adjust the position of the content manually via published parameters in the inspector window. Feel free to share the footage via chat, we'll take a look :) mvfx.co/Chat

[@AerialVideosPhotos]

@@motionvfx I was wondering the same thing that was asked for my drone footage so thank you.

[@abelnavarrete74]

When I try to track on my computer it doesn’t do anything I’ve been trying to find a solution and nothing. Any suggestions?

[@dekuanstudios8457]

With V2, is it no longer required to mask out a moving object?

[@motionvfx]

It always depends on the footage you're working on

[@reedshepherd5093]

Where can I locate the free plug-in multi to control the contrast? Thank you.

[@jasonthomas1969]

does this plugin not work with premier pro??

[@motionvfx]

Jason, it's available exclusively on Final Cut Pro and Apple Motion

[@nounix]

how does mtracker know where to cast a shadow so that it looks like the shadow is being cast on the sand's surface? (the guy, beach, water etc are all part of 2D footage)

[@motionvfx]

There's always light setting in mTracker 3D Titles, so you can adjust it to your footage :)

[@nounix]

@@motionvfx oh so this light setting in the mTracker 3D Titles casts a shadow on a non-existent/transparent 3D surface, and so it looks like a shadow is made over the beach's sand's surface on the 2D footage below??
