Tools used

• Mocha Pro

Author Notes

In this special guest tutorial, certified Adobe master trainer Ian Robinson shows how to use Mocha Pro's planar tracking and masking tools to integrate futuristic HUD graphics to a scene. Ian shows how Mocha can handle this shot's deep depth of field and out-of-focus details then stylizes his composite with Sapphire & Continuum plug-ins.

Mocha's planar tracking can solve out-of-focus shots that might throw off the AE point tracker or camera tracking. This 42 min project tutorial covers planar motion tracking, linking masks, open spline masking for hair and more.

Other plug-ins shown are Sapphire's Rack Defocus, Film Effect, and more.
