This course is taught on PFTrack 5. Victor Wolansky’s tracking courses have been perennial favorites at fxphd. In his new advanced course, he�ll be covering many high level issues which come up during production. For instance, he�ll take a look at dealing with lens distortion – a big problem which is sometimes overlooked. Bad tracks can often be attributed to a bad lens distortion correction and he�ll show you how to avoid these pitfalls.
The course will also include different approaches on how to set the workflow to work with lens distortion and CG, fixing the BG and tracking, fixing the FOV after tracking, and more. Rolling shutter is a big problem of many of the popular new digital cameras, and Wolansky will work through how to deal with the issue. The course will also work with stereo footage and look at the advantage of the extra parallax provided by this footage. He�ll also include some face tracking, object placing, and much more over the course of the term.
