Adding an Image to the Source

The Smart Vector toolset can also propagate an image through a sequence from a single source frame.

To add an image to your sequence:

1.

Scrub through your sequence to find a good reference frame. Good reference frames should:

• be at the point of least motion, also known as the motion apex,

• contain minimal motion blur, and

• avoid areas of occlusion.

2.

Merge your image into the node tree at the selected reference frame.
