It’s been a slow day today, one of those in-between-projects times that are too short to start a new tutorial, but too long to let it go to waste. I woke up late to the sound of cars crossing the Istanbul bridge.
I remembered how quiet and peaceful this city can be at dawn, and decided to capture that feeling. Fortunately I had quite a few great shots taken by Bora Sübakan a few weeks ago. I put on some music and started editing and compositing. 9 hours later I had this:

how you do the text in video ? With aftereffects track motion?? and 3d ?? can u help me i have a project video for a charity Concert….Thx
Since the footage was shot with a 100mm telephoto lens, there wasn’t much of a perspective shift in the footage. In other words it felt kinda “2D” and standard After Effects tracker was enough to extract the motion/rotation/scale.
I then linked up a 3D layer’s position to a 2D tracker and adjusted the rotation to match the perspective of the shots.
i have a smooth solution for this 2D tracking,only track the footage with a single position tracker and then cut the position key frames and paste them into the anchor point of a null object.Link the camera to follow null object.that’s all.This Technic also gives some perspective to your 3D text.
And Quba i loved the mosquito particles :)
