Convert Mask Track to a Null Object

Hello,

I have been attempting to track an eye using Mocha but have not been able to achieve desirable results, I used a mask track in After Effects and the track is perfect, is there anyway I can convert this tracking data into a null object so that I can parent other items to it?

Thanks,

Ethan

Have you tried AE's face tracker? That's a lot easier to get tracking info from.

If you really must use the mask tracker, you're going to need a third-party solution like this one.

Yeah I have but the angle of the face means that the face tracker cannot work to full potential.

Ah bugger, was hoping I didn't have to spend money but if thats the only way, thats the only way.

Thank you

Rather than spending the money, you might just try going through some more training for Mocha (they've got some good stuff on their site). If AE's mask tracker is working, Mocha should be able to work too.
