Voodoo and Blender Camera Tracking Test

My first test with voodoo and blender. I used voodoo to track the camera movement, then imported the camera movement data into blender and animated the cube, then composited the cube in Adobe After Effects. I hope to implement this in a movie sometime.

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?

@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)

question, is this kinda trick hard to animate?

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

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