I'm interested in all aspects of moviemaking: shooting, mixing and camera operating, starting from when the Matrix was released. For 3 years I've been recording some funny, amateur stuff. Now the time has come for more serious work: time for compositing and adding video effects!

    It’s easier to do with boujou or any other matchmoving software, then you make the hologram and glowing screen layers 3D layers and position them. They’ll move automatically just as the camera does if you made it right. See the boujou tutorial from Sam and Niko (CorridorDigital) on YT – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jd1HPXHc5Cw

    wouldnt it be better to use planar tracking?

    How about a 4 point track? (Or 4 corner pin)
    Won’t that give a much more better track effect than a 2 point one…?
