Free PFHoe Tutorial - Workflow - Creating in-scene titles in After Effects

In this new free tutorial using PFHoe, we'll look the entire workflow for creating a 3D matchmove. We'll then bring that footage into After Effects, add titles and create a laser-generated look. That also requires translating 3D tracking data to 2D co-ordinates with expressions.

This tutorial expects some knowledge of the After Effects user interface but takes you through the steps needed easily in PFHoe.

Main Goals

First we go through the main steps in PFHoe to create a 3D matchmove.
We improve the results and export the data to After Effects.
Finally we create the titles in 3D space, add a number of different effects, and learn how to use expressions to automatically control filters and effects.
