06 Adjusting Your Track with AdjustTrack [Mocha Essentials]

The best way to fix problems with your tracking data is to find the fundamental cause, eg tracking the wrong area, not using multiple shapes or track mattes, or needing to make some small changes to your tracking parameters.  But sometimes these things are not possible and you still need to compensate for drift, or an object being completely covered or going offscreen.  In this exercise we will focus on AdjustTrack. Specifically, how to set it up, adding keyframes, common issues with adjusting the track, and when you shouldn’t be using AdjustTrack at all.
What happens if your track is drifting or not quite exactly where you want it? That's when adjust track comes into play. This exercise covers adjust track, specifically identifying the problem with your track and knowing when to adjust your track or simply start over. We cover the in depth controls for setting your Adjust Track Points, talking about what the different transforms do, setting your reference frame, and adjusting your reference points. We will also cover when to use the Surface View & when your shot is a good candidate for Auto Step. If you really need a rock solid track and don't quite know how to get there, this lesson is for you.

When you have completed this exercise, you will understand how, when and why to use the AdjustTrack module and how to take the correct data from it.
