00:00:00,870 --> 00:00:03,920

Hi guys I'm welcome to this new election this lecture.



2

00:00:03,980 --> 00:00:08,280

We're still in Takhar and we want to track position and scale.



3

00:00:08,300 --> 00:00:14,090

Now scale is a bit different but pretty easy to use and you really need to learn it because it will



4

00:00:14,090 --> 00:00:19,180

give you a lot of adventures and you can really work some fancy animation with it.



5

00:00:19,190 --> 00:00:23,290

So let's have a look at our video clip here.



6

00:00:23,330 --> 00:00:30,420

You see the guy is going all way moving away from the scene in front and his becoming smaller.



7

00:00:30,590 --> 00:00:37,340

I think this is a very good example to use now the scale here will attach the scale to the guy.



8

00:00:37,340 --> 00:00:40,490

And we got some tracks and some balls maybe.



9

00:00:40,490 --> 00:00:41,810

And to see it's coming up.



10

00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,860

Now this movie is very big or very long.



11

00:00:45,860 --> 00:00:53,270

We want only to do 10 seconds but you will know that the tracking would track in the earlier panel over



12

00:00:53,260 --> 00:00:53,760

here.



13

00:00:53,870 --> 00:00:58,490

And it will track up to 24 second so we need to stop it when we finish.



14

00:00:58,550 --> 00:01:00,800

Let's start with Kuntar tracker.



15

00:01:00,980 --> 00:01:07,280

And we say track motion we have running and before because I opened the panel and we add the scale so



16

00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,770

I'm tracking the position and the scale.



17

00:01:09,770 --> 00:01:15,110

And of course I have to position the track on the first one I want to put on it on his head.



18

00:01:15,230 --> 00:01:17,590

And the second one I'm going to put on his pants here.



19

00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:23,170

You know the contract is very big here between the black and the gray of the road.



20

00:01:23,180 --> 00:01:27,560

And also for the upper part the head is also a great contrast.



21

00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,150

So it will work very fine.



22

00:01:29,450 --> 00:01:38,820

So what I will do I need to take this track points and put them one on top.



23

00:01:38,860 --> 00:01:41,800

Here you are put it in the middle.



24

00:01:42,020 --> 00:01:44,100

Let's make this one a bit bigger.



25

00:01:44,370 --> 00:01:45,880

It will work better.



26

00:01:45,950 --> 00:01:49,780

And then let's take the other one and put it down.



27

00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,550

Now I'm not very sure this is going to work 100 percent.



28

00:01:52,550 --> 00:01:54,320

Even me I have to try.



29

00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,940

So you will analyze the first one if it doesn't work you analyze it again it's no big deal.



30

00:01:59,180 --> 00:02:03,890

And if it doesn't work at all then change your mind before buying another one.



31

00:02:03,890 --> 00:02:05,920

But actually it will always change.



32

00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:11,840

You need some patience sometimes you know stop being looking at the keyframes moving the track points



33

00:02:11,850 --> 00:02:14,560

a bit concerning keyframes like we had done before.



34

00:02:14,660 --> 00:02:20,450

But at the end you can almost track anything provided it is not too small to be tracked.



35

00:02:20,540 --> 00:02:24,500

So I will analyze forward here and see exactly if it is working.



36

00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:28,180

So I have my first point here and second point your call.



37

00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,550

It's working until now and I want to stop it at 10 seconds.



38

00:02:31,580 --> 00:02:33,790

Let's see when it becomes very small.



39

00:02:33,950 --> 00:02:35,170

Well it's still tracking.



40

00:02:35,220 --> 00:02:37,250

This is not tracking very well.



41

00:02:37,340 --> 00:02:40,370

It's moved on the right but it's still OK.



42

00:02:40,370 --> 00:02:41,420

We can still use it.



43

00:02:41,420 --> 00:02:43,640

The head is very very good.



44

00:02:43,820 --> 00:02:44,390

Fine.



45

00:02:44,420 --> 00:02:47,660

Now we are coming to the end and everything is still fine.



46

00:02:47,660 --> 00:02:48,010

Good.



47

00:02:48,020 --> 00:02:49,080

I will stop right here.



48

00:02:49,550 --> 00:02:53,110

Let's go and open the you for keyframes.



49

00:02:53,210 --> 00:03:00,650

So if I come to the end here and select all my keyframes that are outside the work area I will just



50

00:03:00,650 --> 00:03:03,150

delete them that's OK for us.



51

00:03:03,290 --> 00:03:07,250

Now what I will do I will come to the opposition panel and enter some text.



52

00:03:07,340 --> 00:03:08,980

I will write arraigning



53

00:03:11,910 --> 00:03:13,050

is good.



54

00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:14,970

OK you can write anything you want.



55

00:03:14,970 --> 00:03:18,780

Of course now and I will position it nicely.



56

00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,530

Now the most important is the anchor point here.



57

00:03:21,670 --> 00:03:23,550

Be careful that good point is on the side.



58

00:03:23,550 --> 00:03:29,580

What that will do is to put the anchor point in the middle by pressing control alt and home after selecting



59

00:03:29,580 --> 00:03:29,940

the lead.



60

00:03:29,940 --> 00:03:33,740

Of course we start now at tracking this one.



61

00:03:33,770 --> 00:03:41,630

I will come to the later panel and choose my player find the tracker is here I get to say the target.



62

00:03:41,670 --> 00:03:42,450

Running is good.



63

00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:43,410

That's the text.



64

00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:44,150

OK.



65

00:03:44,370 --> 00:03:45,160

I would say OK.



66

00:03:45,170 --> 00:03:49,690

And of course I have to apply remember always to apply X Y.



67

00:03:49,700 --> 00:03:50,730

Cool.



68

00:03:50,950 --> 00:03:52,800

Now it's coming on top here.



69

00:03:52,830 --> 00:03:55,000

Let's look at what we have down there.



70

00:03:55,020 --> 00:03:58,060

First of all for the tracker we have two points.



71

00:03:58,140 --> 00:04:01,350

We have tracked point 1 and 3 point to we adjusted them.



72

00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,510

But there is nothing about scale.



73

00:04:03,570 --> 00:04:07,210

There is feature center feature center at that point at that point.



74

00:04:07,290 --> 00:04:14,220

So aftereffects is going to use the attach point information to create a certain scale and it will vary



75

00:04:14,220 --> 00:04:16,580

between 0 and 100 percent.



76

00:04:16,590 --> 00:04:24,510

Let's go back here we have our scale but it appeared on top because this is where the first flashpoint



77

00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,730

is fine.



78

00:04:25,740 --> 00:04:26,280

Let's go.



79

00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:27,510

How do you fix this one.



80

00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:34,440

Using the anchor point of the ladder just move it to the right or just move it down.



81

00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,620

OK that's good.



82

00:04:37,730 --> 00:04:40,830

So now it's in the middle let's look at it at 100 percent.



83

00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:41,710

It's not bad.



84

00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:42,820

Is in the middle.



85

00:04:43,070 --> 00:04:45,820

That's the select and run and see what's happening.



86

00:04:45,910 --> 00:04:48,340

I would go to preview and click mode.



87

00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,920

So that's pretty cool you not jumping too far.



88

00:04:51,140 --> 00:04:53,600

But you get the concept here.



89

00:04:53,660 --> 00:05:01,550

So after effect is going to use the top the track points to that use a certain animation for the scale



90

00:05:01,580 --> 00:05:03,370

and certain percentage for scale.



91

00:05:03,590 --> 00:05:13,080

Now let's add something else let's take a basketball it's not here I want to import a file and bring



92

00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,470

in a basketball here in.



93

00:05:15,780 --> 00:05:17,250

So that's my basketball.



94

00:05:17,250 --> 00:05:22,200

I'm going to take the basketball come to the beginning take the basketball and just drop it here.



95

00:05:23,060 --> 00:05:23,660

Good.



96

00:05:23,930 --> 00:05:25,200

And let's make it smaller.



97

00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,460

Here we are.



98

00:05:27,750 --> 00:05:31,890

Now I want to you know also track the on the basketball.



99

00:05:31,890 --> 00:05:36,440

I will come to truckle go to the panel choose my player.



100

00:05:36,570 --> 00:05:38,200

That's my lay out here.



101

00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:44,340

And when he says did target I will choose basketball running that Benji.



102

00:05:44,550 --> 00:05:45,340

Here you are.



103

00:05:45,660 --> 00:05:48,140

And apply same same.



104

00:05:48,150 --> 00:05:51,150

You will notice that the basketball came on top.



105

00:05:51,150 --> 00:05:53,170

I would come to the BNZ.



106

00:05:53,190 --> 00:05:56,470

That's the basketball side you know.



107

00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,960

And started using the anchor point to move the basket ball whatever I wanted.



108

00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,720

Let's put it here and then let's put it down over here.



109

00:06:06,170 --> 00:06:07,700

Just next to him.



110

00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:09,450

Good.



111

00:06:09,450 --> 00:06:12,080

Let's run and see if you have done a good job.



112

00:06:12,300 --> 00:06:13,250

And here you are.



113

00:06:13,470 --> 00:06:20,750

You have the basketball and the guy and the name aligning all together and it's pretty cool.



114

00:06:20,940 --> 00:06:22,770

Not just what's happening now.



115

00:06:22,790 --> 00:06:23,970

The basketball is too high.



116

00:06:23,970 --> 00:06:30,800

Maybe we want to bring it a bit lower so we'll take it and take the Antal point a bit.



117

00:06:31,890 --> 00:06:33,040

Let's move this up.



118

00:06:34,540 --> 00:06:40,080

Take the anchor point and stick it down or further and let's see what happens.



119

00:06:40,100 --> 00:06:43,160

So the ball is coming with his feet it's pretty nice.



120

00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,760

I could put it next to his feet but that's OK.



121

00:06:45,770 --> 00:06:47,260

And it's bouncing ball.



122

00:06:47,510 --> 00:06:51,120

So now this is how you use the scale and it's pretty easy.



123

00:06:51,220 --> 00:06:56,280

Didn't have to know what is the scale and how big is it or how small it is.



124

00:06:56,450 --> 00:07:01,110

And the you know the juice percentage is just direct with aftereffects.



125

00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:07,790

And this is the way to create lots of animation and lots of visual effects with aftereffects.



126

00:07:07,790 --> 00:07:13,970

Now of course here the wards are jumping to much what you can do.



127

00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:22,580

You can come to the position of the doctor here and open the motor.



128

00:07:22,850 --> 00:07:25,310

Let's see his mother is already open for me.



129

00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:31,920

This mother will just reduce the number of keyframes inside a property.



130

00:07:31,940 --> 00:07:36,250

So this is a special path here I would say it is.



131

00:07:36,260 --> 00:07:39,110

It means reduce by 5 percent or whatever.



132

00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:45,200

Tolerate 5 percent whatever it is and click apply not just what's going to happen in the keyframes are



133

00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:49,750

being reduced if I play again they will reduce if I put 10.



134

00:07:49,980 --> 00:07:52,490

Also now it will reduce even more.



135

00:07:52,610 --> 00:07:53,840

But they do work.



136

00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,290

It is not like if you reduce the keyframes it's going to be smarter.



137

00:07:58,460 --> 00:07:59,690

No not really.



138

00:07:59,690 --> 00:08:06,170

What's going to happen is the path in between keyframes will be just a bit longer and it will be you



139

00:08:06,180 --> 00:08:08,780

know not jumping so much in between keyframes.



140

00:08:08,990 --> 00:08:09,950

So here you are.



141

00:08:09,950 --> 00:08:16,960

This is how you scale and this how you use the tracking scale and position at the same time I see on



142

00:08:16,970 --> 00:08:17,860

the next lecture.



143

00:08:18,020 --> 00:08:18,910

And please have fun.



144

00:08:18,910 --> 00:08:25,250

Please go to after effects and start working on the tracking make nice things adjust this one for example



145

00:08:25,580 --> 00:08:29,440

and download this project and play around and see what you can do.
