After years of taking requests and emails suggestions from our customers from around the world, we are proud to announce our very first multilingual training solution starting with the Mocha Pro training. This video will include both English and Portuguese versions of the training at no extra cost to the end user. We will be releasing more languages through out the year for many of our training videos.

This new service will be turned on just a few short days from the launch of the English Version of this product.

Introduction
Since this is the beginning of a video series, we will get started with planar tracking concepts. Youll get a guided tour of the Mocha Pro user interface, utilizing a simple project setup. Youll use the Tracker Module to track surfaces, discover strategies to improve tracking, track surfaces that leave the screen, learn about the types of splines layers shapes and how to review the tracking quality with the Viewer controls.
Rotoscoping
cmiVFX has been using Imagineer tools for its Rotoscoping pipeline for years. It is one of the fastest ways to take care of one of the most tedious tasks in the Visual Effects game. Learn how to use the planar tracker to achieve faster results when doing Rotoscoping. There will be an overview of the tools to create and manipulate Layer shapes, including edge feathering and smoothing. Learn how to evaluate rotoshape quality with the Viewer controls and when the rotoscope is finished, explore the options to export the results to other softwares.
Advanced Tracking
While working on a more challenging project, you will learn how to isolate unwanted elements from the tracking area using garbage mattes and Blend modes. Then watch a more in-depth explanation of the Adjust track module to further refine your tracking results when the Track module is not enough to solve the tracking. We then break down several methods of exporting and importing into other 3rd party applications, such as: Final Cut Pro, Nuke, Motion, and After Effects. (Autodesk Flame customers can review our Flame training video for GMask information)
Insert Module
Discover how to use the Insert module parameters to successfully place images on tracked surfaces. Learn how to render final composited inserts from Mocha Pro or to export the insert layer for other softwares.
Lens Module
Explore the Lens module to obtain better results on the other Mocha Pro modules when shots have lens distortion. (In photography, distortion is particularly associated with zoom lenses, particularly large-range zooms, but may also be found in prime lenses, and depends on focal distance)
Remove Module With the two example projects presented, understand how to use the unique Remove module of Mocha Pro to eliminate unwanted elements from shots. Using the same scene background or additional clean plates, we discuss the removal parameters in depth, making it easy to remove unwanted objects in shots requiring enhancement.
Stabilize Module
In this section we show you how to take shaky footage and make it presentable for further post production. Learn how to recover the missing parts of the plate using the Border settings and how to further smooth Camera movements using the Stabilize parameters.
