Hello

I'm trying to Track matte a layer but it seems cropped and scaled down. Shouldn't it assume the shape of the object?
Attaching two screenshots. 

Please help

Thanks

The pixel sizes of the photo may need to match the pixel sizes of the sequence for the track matte to work properly.

You may need to nest the photo if the photo doesn't match the main sequence.

You need to use an effect other than Motion to scale and position - this video explains it:

Your media must match the sequence settings for it to work properly.
