This week, we got the plate for the project and started to camera track using a 3D equalizer. This plate was fun to work with because this plate had tracking points and helped to make the footage smoother. At the end of the tracking, I had a problem with the export. When I was exporting the 3D camera to Maya to see if it was fine it had a bad shack. I tried to fix it, by changing the FPS and the film back.
On the same day, we had a class with Dom and I asked him about it and even he had the same problem. Later that day he said that when rendering it out we should start from frame 0 not from frame 1.
After doing the changes I couldn’t render the camera and tracker to Maya or Nuke. I tried to fix it by watching YouTube videos and reading up about it on Reddit but I couldn’t fix the problem. I asked for help from Marianna and we both tried to fix it for 3 hours and failed.
On the other side, I started cleaning up the reference frame so that next week when I clean things will go more smoothly while tracking. I broke it into 3 parts so it’s easy to clean up.
