POSTED 25th OF Jun, 2025, Posted by Summer
Looking to take your tracking skills to the next level? In Boris FX’s latest tutorial, “Simultaneous Camera and Object Tracking in SynthEyes,” expert Elizabeth Postol breaks down the process of achieving seamless object and camera solves—all in one unified workflow.
Whether you're compositing CG elements into a live-action scene or prepping shots for a VFX pipeline, this video delivers practical techniques you can start applying immediately in SynthEyes.
Smart Masking with Mask ML
Learn how to leverage Mask ML, SynthEyes’ machine learning-based masking tool, to create quick and reliable exclusion and object tracking masks. Watch as Elizabeth shows you how to propagate masks across frames, keeping your selections clean and consistent—even in fast-moving scenes.
Camera & Object Auto-Tracking
Master the use of auto trackers to simplify your solve. From generating auto trackers to fine-tuning them for optimal results, you’ll get a practical look at how to control your tracking data without wasting time on manual adjustments.
3D Solve Refinement
Even the best auto tracks need refinement. Elizabeth explains how to troubleshoot object placement issues, refine your 3D solve, and ensure both your camera and object are perfectly aligned for export into your favorite 3D or compositing application.
Geometry Alignment with Mesh Constraints
Once the tracking is locked, it's time to bring in the 3D elements. You’ll see how to pin geometry to tracked surfaces using mesh constraints, ensuring that your 3D objects stick exactly where they’re supposed to throughout the shot.
