Creating Cards
CameraTracker can automatically create a 3D card for each solved frame using the camera to project the image at that frame onto the card.
1. | Select Cards from the Export dropdown menu. |
2. | Enable or disable the Link output control to determine whether the cameras are expression linked or baked: |
• When enabled, CameraTracker creates expression linked cameras so that any adjustments made in the properties panel Output > Camera controls update the cameras.
• When disabled, any adjustments made are ignored by the cameras.
3. | Click Create. |
If you're processing a large amount of frames, a confirmation dialog displays.
4. | Click Yes to continue or No to cancel the export. |
CameraTracker adds a Group node to the Node Graph containing Card, FrameHold, and Camera nodes for every frame specified connected to a Scene node.
5. | Double click the Group to open the properties panel, then click the S above the panel to open the group in the Node Graph. |
6. | Use the Group node's z slider to control the card distance from the camera. You can use this setting to create a pan and tile dome at this distance from the camera. |
The Cards are scaled automatically using the camera settings.
