After Effects CS6/CC - Track beam/line of 3D point of tracking camera

I am trying to create an effect where a line is connected to both text and an object in my shot. I would like that the beam to increase/reduce the object in my shot moves in the relationship to the place where my text.

Here is an example of what I mean (starting at about 00:40): https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=-H-Oodf20UM

I used 3D camera tracker to create different follow-up points throughout the shooting, but unfortunately I can not understand how to reach the (generated through the beam effect) line at one of these points. I tried to create a null object, and then choose the position of the beam to the position of the null value, but it does not whip. It seems that in the 3D camera Tracker keyframes are not generated, which can be accessed under the position of the null value settings.

Any ideas or suggestions? Thank you!

When you solve for a camera you get only camera keyframe. You don't get the keyframes for the objects in the scene. If objects are moving in the scene, then you must either make Planar monitoring or follow-up. If a large object moves in a scene, you actually do not account for this movement to get a good camera solution, because the 3D tracker is a try to understand how the camera never moved not how different things in the movement of the scene.

You can successfully get the effect with point or planar tracking.

  • After Effects CS6 going nuts!

    I have After Effects CS6, no updates or add ons. It has worked well throughout, but today he then nuts. Problems: I was making a scene from deep space, placing of towing planets in the scene and moving them. Usually, I do a planet by importing a texture, then using CC sphere around it, as most people do. Well, it worked well. I usually use scale and size with keyframes to move. Today, however, I could not the "planet" to move, and when I tried to read, he gave me about 1 second to change the textures very quickly (wow, didn't understand that) and the 'planet' dissappeared. When I move the cursor back at the beginning, it reappears. Then I noticed that the real 'track' on the timeline is tiny, no where near as long as the composition settings.

    As well, it worked for a while, I haven't added computer info, which I have not changed since the installation of AF.

    I thought it was a stroke of luck, as I've done it before, but now I can't make it work at all. So what to do? I can't find anything in the preferences that have bad air. Should I try to reinstall? Any advice?  Thank you!!

    Well, it was a problem of import, but not what we expected! I have five textures I use for planets. Yesterday, I converted my files and called the textures like 1.jpg, 2.jpg texture texture and so forth. Now when I try to import a texture, he tries to import each of them with a file, it called the texture .jpg (1-5). I had not noticed this before. So when I hit the play button, he tried to play at the same time. Weird! Anyway, rename the files with quite distinct names fixed! It now works correctly.

    I'm still working on the timeline display. I remember showing seconds and images, but I can't find that now. Any ideas?

  • Receive no benefit of using GPU acceleration/CUDA in After Effects CS6

    I've recently updated the graphics card in my Mac Pro 3.1 for an EVGA Nvidia GTX 680 Mac Edition and have set up so that after effects CS6 recognizes it as a compatible card as in many places, I read that it should work fine. However, I don't seem to receive all the benefits of using, rendering time a little longer, if it is not longer than before and previews just like sluggish. I've updated the graphics card and CUDA, set the preview of Ray-tracing for GPU and all the comps are set to display with the ray-tracing, but I still get no no performance gain.

    I noticed that under the information GPU in the OpenGL Shader Model information is empty and greyed out. I don't know if this is related to the problem, but I'm not sure why this is. Information under CUDA seems to be OK. I have provided the following information:

    Fast draft:Available

    Ray-tracing:GPU

    OpenGL

    Seller:NVIDIA Corporation
    Feature:NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 engine OpenGL

    Maximum usable memory:2.00 GB

    If there is no solution to how to get the benefits of CUDA in after effects, please let me know.

    As Mylenium says, you seem to be waiting for something which is not the case. The 3D rendering engine traced to the RADIUS does not speed up the rendering of the classic compositions from After Effects. It is rather a rendering engine to make a very limited set of manipulations in 3D (extrusion of text and shapes) and flexion of the 2D layers. Even these things are not fast with the traced the beam 3D rendering engine. they are just faster with the GPU that they would be on the CPU.

    Read this page carefully for more details of the GPU is used in After Effects:

    • I am able to launch Renderer Machine without any problems.
    • I am also able to launch other products Adobe that came with the AE CS6 trial version.
    • Latest version of Quicktime is installed.

    Your problem is that the program wants a good video card and a fast hard disk and a lot of memory and have in what precedes. If you have upgraded the RAM to 8 GB memory and installed a disc hard solid state, you could do the program usable but the real bottleneck is going to be the Intel HD graphics, which cannot be upgraded.

    You don't have a slot open for add a 4 GB memory module. It is a simple upgrade relatively inexpensive. See here:

    https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=L7FvZ-JduRM

    http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/ct51264bf160b

    I'll try this one step at a time. Next would be the solid state drive. It would cost maybe $150. If you need assistance.

    CS6 is not officially supported on Yosemite, but after Effects CS6 can be performed on this subject. There may be problems that crop up. To get it to start, you need to have the 11.0.4 update for AE CS6. There are also likely to be accidents involving the color picker, so if it's a problem, go to your preferences and change the option for the system color picker.
