How to Smouth Position in after effect

After position tracking (with Mocha) I have got key frames for position (corner pin) but they are "noisy" so my tracking looks a bit shaky. How can I "smooth" position key frame?

Thanks

Jacques

    smoothing usually means you will get a less accurate track. you might want to track again instead, and get a solid track. that said, there is a smooth expression that is an old school method of smoothing the point tracker. here's a nice tutorial the smooth expression: After Effects Tutorial: Smooth Expression - YouTube

    If you are getting some jumpy spots in your track, you definitely didn't get a really good track.  If you open mocha and review it, you will see those jerky spots.  I'd also recommend a re-track, see if you can adjust the features you are tracking to get it cleaner. 

    If you have a link to the clip to see what you are doing, that would be helpful too (if you can share).
