Using Dynamic Model in Tracker.m4v

This is a screencast I put together as I was learning to use the open source video analysis program Tracker to model a ball being thrown. The program will allow you to set parameters such as initial velocity, mass, and gravity, and then will calculate the position of an object based on that information. It also overlays this information on top of video you import into the program. This means you can adjust the values of the parameters until the model matches the movement in the video.
