And what we want to do is scrub our footage to find a good frame, where we have the side of our van. Here inside of Mocha, I'm using the Essentials workspace. Now that we've done that, let's select our button and go into Mocha AE. By doing this, we give Mocha all the pixels available in our footage to come up with the best track. And before we hit the button to step into Mocha AE, let's make sure that our resolution is set to full. Let's double-click this to open up the effect controls. Let's step into Mocha AE, by first right-clicking on our footage, coming over to effect.

Here in this 03 composition, we have the same shot. It's Mocha's strength of tracking planar surfaces that helps separate it from other trackers. That's something a point tracker would easily fail at solving. In this shot, Mocha was able to track the side of the van even though it's off screen at the start of the shot. This results in better tracking with less effort. The same tool used to easily create animated masks, can also be used to follow a defined texture as it moves throughout the duration of the shot.

These strategies will help you solve the most complex shots inside of After Effects & Mocha. Instructor Lee Lanier will walk you through different approaches on a variety of screens with several challenges such as out of focus screens, hidden corners, motion blur, hands obscuring the screens, missing reflections and much more. In this course you will learn all the techniques you need to do a perfect screen replacement regardless of the difficulty level of the shot.
