Voodoo and Blender Camera Tracking Test

[skateboard19952006]

question, is this kinda trick hard to animate?

[skateboard19952006]

uhhh, i use after effects and freddiew wong said there is a motion tracker thing for free called voodoo, how can i connet after effects with this software?

[darkpivotstudios]

@skateboard19952006 I know what video you're talking about. You don't connect voodoo with after effects. Voodoo is a 3D tracker, which means it works in 3D applications such as Cinema 4D, Blender and 3D Studio Max.

@darkpivotstudios ok thx, but is any of those 3d apps, also for free?

[darkpivotstudios]

@skateboard19952006 Blender is free, and that's what I used for this. It's not too hard to animate, but to get into more complex things, there's a pretty big learning curve. (One that I can't be bothered to get through)

Nice man, keep this stuff up and you'll find yourself in the industry :)

[darkpivotstudios]

@nado117 Actually I'm planning to go into game design, not film making, but they're both pretty similar now. :P

[nado117]

@darkpivotstudios I'm probably headed there too, but you could do either.

WOW I have to try this

[darkpivotstudios]

@electricity95 Yeah, it's really fun. :D I'm thinking of making an at-st walker from starwars in my front yard next time. :P

[electricity95]

@darkpivotstudios

is that the chicken walker or the camel walker. either way lightsabers are needed.

[darkpivotstudios]

@electricity95 Lol, never heard that before. They're the "chicken walkers". The "camel walkers" are the At-At's. I may try those instead, because they're more bad a**. :P

[MVJSTRIKES]

Couldn't you have done something more exciting like Heavy or something?

[darkpivotstudios]

@MVJSTRIKES Lol, I'm planning to do a scene with some Ep.2 Hunters or some other kind of Half Life 2 character.

That is so cool. By the way I am getting the platinum pro pack. I think the xbox 360 stuff can wait.

[zachmanZM]

That looks really good, I think I might get into motion tracking like this, It seems very interesting!

[darkpivotstudios]

@zachmanZM Yeah, it's really easy too. I followed Filmaker92's tutorial.
