Hello there!
I hope this is the correct thread for my question.
I am having a really hard time finding out how to solve my object track I have imported from Syntheyes in to After Effects.
I followed this
tutorial from
http://ssontech.com using the same footage. In short I get export data from 9 null-trackers without additional camera information because there is no camera movement.
My goal is to match up a text layer so that it looks as if its sitting on top of the iPad.
When I import the null-trackers into AE it looks a bit messed up because AE gets no information from a camera, so the trackers are way off of their actual location. After parenting them to an additional null and moving them into position I managed to match them up with the footage.
After that I noticed that my nulls don't show any rotation information allthough they should have and had in Syntheyes. I also tested it by parenting a 3D text layer. The position and scaling is applied, but no rotation.
On the other hand I have 9 trackers, and if I could apply a layer to all those trackers the rotation should be copied to the layer, on which then I could paste teyt layer. But I can't figure out how to do this.
So, my question is, is there a way to easily solve this task with Syntheyes and import it directly into After Effects or do I have to import it into a 3D application first?
Or would it be easyer to track the iPad in After Effects/ Mocha?
Any hints or ideas or even better a tutorial would be a really big help and much appreciated!
