Blenderpeople marching on grass

This is my attempt to use Blenderpeople, Blender 2.49 and Icarus to match-move DV footage of some random place and composite an animation made in Blenderpeople of soldiers marching on top.

Hi there. I used a program called icarus to track DV footage and export the tracking data as a human readable .txt file. I used a script in blender that could interpret files generated by icarus and generate IPOs for the camera. I imported any camera related data from one .blend file to the one used in blenderpeople. That's where I did the animation simulation and then some compositing later.

To use blenderpeople you'll need a list of features on the author's website.
