Fundamentals of Mocha - 09a - Stabilization in After Effects

Fundamentals of Mocha - 09a - Stabilization in After Effects: What you'll learn:
• Use Stabilize in mocha & After Effects
• How to pick your focus point for Stabilization
• Creating a smoothed shot

This tutorial is all about Stabilization; how it can help us in mocha and how we can use the tracking data in After Effects. We discuss how to shift narrative focus within a shot just by changing the shape that we build the stabilized effect on. This gives us a good deal of control in the scene.

In After Effects we see the methods for stabilizing position, then scale and rotation using Expressions. We then work on creating a smoothed shot to maintain the camera move but take out the bumps. Along with this, we see some quick techniques for filling in missing edge details.
