Mocha ae trouble

New Here ,
Nov 04, 2025 Nov 04, 2025

I am trying to motion track a beverage can in a 6 second stock video and I intend to put my 2D label on it, I have tried Mocha AE, geotracker but I have failed.

I am getting frustrated in Mocha because I set the spline nicely, manually set the planar surface, export the data, apply it to the intended 2D graphic and for a start the graphic is far off from where it should be (I did make the graphic the same size of the comp before applying mocha data), even if I fiddle around with corner pin position, the outcome is so shaky, I have watched so many tutorials, please help

Hey there Palak,

Thanks for the post. It sounds like you are having trouble motion tracking an object in Mocha AE. I hope the team or a community member will drop by soon to help. Do you have a sample or screenshot of the clip, so we can see what you're working with? More info about your system and the media would also help. I do help we can assist you here. Sorry for the hassle.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Mocha's standard tracking tools performs planar tracking - a flat surface. Unless the non-planar tracking object is sufficiently distant such that it looks and moves flat, relative to the camera, you will have to use its PowerMesh tool which is part of its Pro Product and not available in the bundled-with-AE version.
