And now the mesh tracker is pretty exciting, albiet a little harder to use than planar tracking data.įor me, if I had to call out one hurdle with Mocha for roto, it would be how Mocha translates its roto spline shape’s points to Flame. A few improvements have really stood out to me over the years: The ability to export the gmask tracer instead of just the traditional gmask was a big leap, and along with that improvement came the ability to include a roto shape’s keyframe data you create in Mocha.

I learned Mocha as a Flame Assistant, providing roto and tracking data to Flame artists daily, so when I became a Flame Artist it was a no brainer to continue to take advantage of it. Same scenario - if it’s a simple roto it’s always better to be able to see things in context within Flame, but as soon as it’s a roto that will take more than something like 20 minutes, the quality of life of using Mocha (at least for me with my background) makes it a lot more enjoyable and efficient. I’ve never used Mocha’s matchmove features, but for all things complex roto I’m also absolutely jumping into Mocha. I’m only using Flame’s planar tracker if the track I’m doing is incredibly simple and almost impossible to fail otherwise I’m jumping into Mocha. As soon as I have a shot that Flame’s planar tracker flies off the rails, Mocha will generally be able to handle it much better. I’m a big Mocha planar tracker user and find it to always ALWAYS work better when compared to Flame’s planar tracker.
