You can even keyframe each of these control points.īecause this object is a really simple curve, I’m going to just use level one, but if this were a logo on a t-shirt that was moving, or another complex surface, we could really get in there and change the detail in depth. This increases the mesh warp detail for more control. Select the Insert Module and “Show Mesh Warp Tool.” You can change the control of mesh warping by selecting between levels one to four. Next, we want to “bend” the new logo to better fit the bottle. Since we already used the plug-in to designate Video 1 as my insert, it populates directly into the Mocha project and is aligned perfectly to the tracked surface. In Layer Properties, assign the Insert Clip to Video Layer. Select “Track Forwards.” After tracking is done, play back your clip to see the results. Enabling the Surface Tool is an extremely useful way to ensure you have a good Mocha track. Next, I turn my Surface Tool on and align the surface corners to the logo. Mocha Pro’s planar tracking is very powerful and can follow the motion of the Coke bottle, even though the pixels are motion blurred and move offscreen. Select translation, scale, and rotation only. Mocha is a planar tracker, so we’re going to follow the texture of this logo only and avoid the reflective glass, which is moving differently than the logo. Inside Mocha Pro, select the X-Spline tool and draw a shape around the logo that you want to motion track. Launch Mocha Pro to get into the Mocha interface. In the effects controls, I’m going to twirl down my module renders and set Video 1 as the insert layer, before I start tracking. Next, go to your effects browser, select the Mocha Pro plug-in, and apply it to your footage. By aligning the replacement logo to the size of the project when you initially create the asset, you ensure that it will fit seamlessly into your Mocha Pro composite. Note: The new logo was created at the same size as the source footage, which is important. I painted a logo replacement for the Coke bottle and I’m going to drop it on Track 1 underneath my footage.
