Yes, this is very useful for subtle zooms or pull backs, which I tend to do in HF now.

If you separate characters onto their own layers you can also gain control over their positions when they do an action - this can make a big difference particularly on close ups.

That's the rub without Mocha imput or output from Muvizu.

I suggested exporting Mocha info from Muvizu cameras so I could make the camera in HF mimic it.

I do move around a bit, sometimes using trackers sometimes just freehand, but you are limited to what is achievable.

However, you'd be amazed at what you can get away with !

I've pretty much stopped using the Muvizu skydome for for outside shots - you get a better effect using backgrounds in HF.

Fantastic picture Berty!

I might have a go with the trial.]]> Fri, 04 Mar 2016 10:14:46 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5571-experiment-in-motion-tracking-using-hitfilm.aspx Message from ukBerty
Here's a recent shot.



Only the characters and their shadow is done in Muvizu - everything else is HitFilm.
The backgorund is a mixture of an imported FBX models and a backdrop.
Stick in some heat distortion, light flares, vignette and some blur and it quickly starts to come together.

@Braj HitFilm Express imports image sequences perfectly. You select the folder that has the pics, unlike Vegas
where you select the first picture in the folder and then tick the box "import as seq"

Side note if there is anything else in the folder other than
the images for the sequence then it will fail.

I mentioned this a while ago to them when I first got into HitFIlm (which is awesome). The more people that ask the better.]]> Thu, 03 Mar 2016 19:40:26 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5571-experiment-in-motion-tracking-using-hitfilm.aspx Message from braj
(Well, I can do it manually with keyframes, was this manual?)

My rubbish camera work was a bit rough and hard for Hitfilm to track, but it turned out OK. What I'd really like to do is generate FBX 3D camera data using Mocha Hitfilm and import the camera moves into Muvizu. Too much to ask? ]]> Thu, 03 Mar 2016 19:03:52 GMT
