I'm a senior comper, 12 years with Nuke, and Ive done frequency separation for paint work for years but I'd never thought to use it for tracking. Thx for the tip.

The ‘laplacian’ node does the same operation in one node instead of two. Learned that in my last job.

This is the kind of tips that's needed. There are tons of VFX videos who just skips past the complexity of tracking to just show the cool stuff, but the cool stuff is mostly the easiest compared to getting a really good track. Especially since all the damn videos on tracking always shows "empty" footage without any filmed people or complex events in frame while real film footage usually has... actors.... and practical effects and stuff like that. So super advanced tracking tricks and tips are really rare to find. I hope you do even more videos on different tracking tricks for different types of situations because this was really helpful! Thanks!

Hey ! Ive found a way to do this in Fusion Studio. Footage> Blur> use channel boolean instead of merge. use Footage as Background, Blur as Foreground, then, use color gain to control the Gain and Gamma.

Yep, it's a very common effect. You can do it in any software

If your merge's B pipe is from the non blurred plate, is it not better to use 'from' instead of 'minus'? It looks much more detailed to me. How about using freq separation with smart vectors? Would they benefit?
@AlfieVaughan
7 ай бұрын
Either way produces a similar result. You can use both. Can't say I've ever used this for smart vectors but I'd imagine it wouldn't work very well as the dark areas of the frame where there's no detail wouldn't track properly

Thanks! Yes it's possible in any compositor. It's exactly the same process. Just blur the image and then minus it from itself. Instead of a grade node you'll need to use something equivalent in blender like an RGB curves node to add the contrast

A similar technioque is used to sharpen images in photography but I never considered using it to help with tracking in video ... GENIUS! I edit in DaVinci Resolve Studio but this is totally doable there as well I think. I'll test that out when I get back to my desk later. Genius.

Yep it's exactly the same process in fusion too so you'll be able to do it. It's also great for removing skin blemishes etc for beauty work as you can remove the detail, paint and then apply it back on top to restore the micro imperfections 😁

I'm just an engineering student, I really don't use Nuke. But you would have a Gaussian kernel minus a matrix with a one in the middle, and then convolve that filter with your image. It's super redundant here.

I don't have after effects anymore I'm afraid! But it's the same process. In after effects you'd duplicate the footage, blur one of them and put it above (or below... You'd have to try both as I can't remember) and set the blending mode to minus. It'll do the same thing
