I’m testing around with the cameratracker since one week now and I’m wondering if there’s a trick for setting the ground-plate.
I’m attaching three screenshots. I shot a raw video last night and I want to roughly put some geometry on the ground. Been playing around with the scene rotation and translation for 2 hours now but it’s not aligning correctly.
Thanks in advance
it looks like meshing causes flickering. particles look good ,but mesh surface looks bad..
thanks for replying. 🙂
here is the video i rendered . it looks a little flickering because compress of youtube. the flickers are at the end of mopher.

I am looking for several generalists profile for a studio in Doha, Qatar.
My name is Ahmed and I was running a small studio back in Paris during early 2000, then I moved to Qatar in 2008. After 2 years working as producer in production house/advertising agencies, I decided to setup my studio 2 months ago: www.limelight.pro
The showreel and productions are the one I had done back in Paris.
I am looking for experienced webdesigner/director/animator to join me here to build the first and only creative studio in Qatar.
That is a bold move but that can pay off especially with Qatar being awarded world cup 2022 ;-).
I am waiting for your showreel at ahmed@limelight.pro.
I will contact you on skype to discuss all the details.
Cheers

First of all can someone helpo me define what it is I want to do? My interest lies in added visual effects to existing footage. For instance, I might go out and film a guy in a field, with a prop gun, then I want to added in gun fire muzzle flashes, an overhead jet speeding by, also firing a missile, adding an explosion as it hits the ground, etc. Basically I want to (ideally) add photo-realistic visual effects to actual footage. Is there a name for this? I am NOT really interested in making full-on stuff like what Pixar do.
So now knowing what I want do, what is the best software(s) for me? I see stuff on the internet that has usually been created by more than just one software package.
I recently purchased After Effects, but I have heard of many others. Maya, Shake, 3DS Max, Nuke, etc,etc. Can anyone tell which one of which ones I should invest in. Would you recommend starting with a particular one first before any other? Are they all similar to use or vastly different?
Also can anyone tell me if my laptop is good enough. The thing is computers ALWAYS seem to get better and better every day. I kinda think which ever knew one I buy will be the wrong one again 3 months down the line. My current laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A300 21H and I don’t really have the money to buy another. Please google it and tell me if it is adeqaute.
Thanks so much for any info people could give me, thanks.
The piece was modeled in subd and converted to polygons. Now, I switched back to subd and it’s not like an artifact but I get a specular streak where the artifacts were.
Converting to nurbs I don’t have the checkered artifacts or streaking but my pieces are split into multiple patches and when rendered with nurbs I can see the seams.
The geometry is clean, good uvs and looks fine with all other materials. Does anyone know what is causing this and how to fix?
I’ve played with tesselation settings on nurbs, subd and polygon and no change occurs. Strange.
