Hello!
I use Element 3d to import obj sequence of animated dog.
I put the Element 3D layer, into a comp cause - i need to apply to it the tracking data of the palm hand i exported from Mocha.
Afterwards,
only when the dog inside the comp its pixelated.
So, i know the solution for this problem is found in the comp i did cause if i take out the Element 3d from the comp the pixilation is gone!
BUT i have to leave it there for the tracking data will apply.
Any suggestion?
Why my object (dog) is blured?

I don't completely understand your workflow but I think it has something to do with the problem you are having.
If I had a shot of a hand like the shot you have I would corner pin track the palm in Mocha AE and add a solid with a grid or checkerboard on the hand so that it looked like there was a card on the hand that moved in 3D. Then I would pre-compose that card and run Camera Tracker on the layer with the card. Properly done, this will give you a camera that you can use with Element 3D to follow the movement of the hand and you can insert a 3D solid in the scene that perfectly follows the hand. This is the ground plane you will use to position your 3D dog.
The next step would be to normalize the camera track and the tracker solid so that the tracker solid is right at the Comp Center. Add a 2D solid, name it "dog" and add element 3D to the layer. You can then add your 3d Dog in element and size and position the dog anywhere on the hand.
I do this kind of thing quite often and it works perfectly. I should do a tutorial.
I could understand your workflow better if I saw the modified properties of the problem layers and a flow chart to show any nested comps. Adding Corner Pin to the dog layer won't help you preserve the 3D nature of your animated dog. Making the footage of the hand a 3D layer won't help either.
I downloaded a shot from Adobe Stock and set up a comp the way I would do it. The final product looks like this:n
Here's the Project File and this is the link to the stock footage.
I will put together a short tutorial on the workflow. Here are the steps:
- Trim the footage
- Create a comp from the footage
- Motion track the footage in Mocha defining the surface of the palm of the hand
- Add a solid to the comp with Grid applied
- Apply the corner pin data from Mocha AE to the solid with the grid
- Pre-compose the Grid layer
- Run Camera Tracker on the Grid
- Set an origin and ground plane, then add a reference solid and camera.
- Add a 3D null to the scene and move it to 0, 0, 0
- Parent the camera and the reference solid to the null
- Move the null to comp center - normalizing the com
- Add a solid for Element 3D open element and add your object
- Follow the recommended workflow to add a null to control the Model in Element
- Create any needed track mattes
That's it.
