3D Tracking UK

​

3D Motion tracking describes the simulation of real-time action camera moves using software such as PF Track, Boujou, Matchmover, or SynthEyes. Over the years, the technique has enjoyed widespread application in commercials and feature films. However, it’s now being extended to type and character animations. If you wish to pleasantly transform your live-action footage, you shouldn’t hesitate to hire experts at 3D tracking in the UK. Our professionals at Green Eyed Productions Limited have ample experience with motion capture and tracking technologies, and you can trust us to work our magic on your footage.

​

What are the applications of motion tracking?

​

The diverse applications of motion tracking largely depend on the environment. In 2D-environments, the most common approach involves tracking the X and Y-axis alongside rotation and zooms on the Z-axis. Alternatively, the technique can be used to achieve a fair beat of stabilization for a shay shot.

​

In the 3D-environment, motion tracking makes complex camera moves along the X, Y, and Z axes possible. 3D-tracks also give room for creating character models, extruded types, and other dimensional objects using 3D software.

​

Despite the numerous potential benefits of 3D-motion tracking, many directors or film-makers refrain from using the technique because they feel it adds an extra layer of complexity to their work. While there’s some iota of truth in the statement, working with the 3D tracking pros can make the task much less challenging.
