Just starting out with pftrack – missing something fundamental?

Hi,

I’m a junior 3D artist and starting out with matchmoving for the first time.

I am trying to track a test shot from hollywood camera with a green set with markers. I am hacing difficulty with what should be a simple shot.

I have been auto tracking, which looks to be succesfull, but the solve is bad. Tracks which looked good became solve points that are in the wrong space in 3D (ie ones that should be planar are not).

I’ve tried using planar constraints on both the tracks, and after tracking on the solve points – is either any more correct? I though doing this would force certain points to be planar but this doesn’t seem to be the case – after improving the solve, the points still do not appear planar.

I have watched some tutorials of good quality but seem to be missing something.

I guess I am asking for some beginners pointers and if I am going wrong somewhere.

thanks,

gubar
