Study Notes
CAMERA TRACKER
- The 3D Camera Tracker effect analyzes video sequences to extract 3D scene data and camera movement.
- 3D camera movement facilitates proper composition of 3D elements within 2D footage.
- Resolved 3D tracking points appear as small 'X's in color, used for accurately placing content in the scene.
WRAP STABILIZER
- The Wrap Stabilizer effect stabilizes movement by eliminating variations caused by camera motion.
- It transforms handheld footage into stable and smooth shots, enhancing visual quality.
KEYING
- Keying defines transparency using a specific color or luminance value in an image.
- Pixels that match the designated value become transparent, allowing for compositing.
- Commonly used in film, this technique allows actors to be filmed against a solid color background, which is later replaced with a new scene.
PARTICLE SYSTEM
- Particle animations can be created alongside objects and characters using particle systems.
- These systems consist of a particle emitter, particles themselves, and the dynamics governing their behavior.
PARTICLE TYPES AND TOOLS
- Two main particle effects: CC Particle System II and CC Particle World, with the latter offering 3D visualization of particles.
PARTICLE PARAMETERS
- Grid & Guides: Helps with object placement within the scene.
- Birth Rate: Higher values increase particle flow, making the screen appear fuller.
- Longevity: Duration particles remain visible on screen; they disappear after a set time.
- Producer: Determines size and position of the particle emitter.
- Position: Indicates the spatial location from which particles are emitted.
- Radius: Defines the emitter size, allowing particles to emit from any point within this volume.
- Physics: Configures particle dynamics, including how they behave in motion.
- Animation: Provides options for different emission styles, such as explosions or whirlwinds.
- Velocity: Determines the speed at which particles leave the emitter.
- Gravity: Sets the acceleration of particles, which can be positive or negative.
- Floor: Allows for the creation of a ground for particles to interact with, enabling behaviors like bouncing or sliding.
