Re: Rotor with motor

Motor is Mocha's little brother..it does tracking and roto, but not track adjust or exporting of tracking data.

Not used Motor myself, but I think it's pretty identical to Mocha..so when epxorting mattes for roto I usually just export the matte as an image sequence or QT. No point exporting the RGB data aswell, as it should just be the same as what you imported. Just select the mattes/roto shapes you want to export. Select Alpha and not RGB and you should be sorted. Match it up to your original footage in AE and bob's yer uncle.

As for Fusion - why are you asking about that? It won't let you track like Motor does, are you asking as a replacement for AE? Totally different workflow as it is node based not layer based. Would take ALOT of getting used to if you've only worked in AE, but well worth it if you do alot of film compositing. But you can still do most of what Fusion can in AE, but may take longer. For mograph, etc the inverse would probably apply = quicker in AE, but you could do it in Fusion with alot of extra work.

Horses for courses. I work solely in AE/Mocha and happy as larry, but I don't do alot of compositing these days.
