Introduction

Here's the result we're going to create. A hotel name that sticks to the wall of an old building, it grows and rotates following the camera movement, thanks to two-point tracking. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe After Effects series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. A single tracking point only gives position. When the camera moves closer or tilts, the object in the video also grows and rotates. For that, we need two points. The distance between them gives scale. The angle gives rotation.

Step 1: Reading camera movement

Create a composition from the building facade footage. Rotate a bit, the camera moves closer and slightly tilts. The window on the second floor appears to grow and shift. We will attach the hotel name right below that row of windows.

Step 2: Null and text layer

Create a null object named 'Pelacak'. Then create the text 'Hotel Cerdas' with white serif font, left-aligned, on the wall below the left window on the second floor. Select the footage, click Track Motion, then check rotation and scale.

Step 3: Two-point tracking

Two track points appear. Place the first point at the bottom-left corner of the leftmost window, and the second point at the bottom-right corner of the rightmost window. The farther apart the two points, the more accurate the rotation and scale. Click Analyze Forward.

Step 4: Apply to null

Click Edit Target, select tracker, then apply. The tracker has keyframes for position, scale, and rotation on every frame. Press U to see everything. Make the smart child hotel from the tracker with P.I.K.Wip.

Step 5: Text sticks to the object

The signboard now moves along with it, enlarges when the camera gets closer, and tilts to follow the wall, as if painted on the building itself.

Step 6: Preview

Rotate the target far until five and a half seconds. The signboard merges with the facade. For a more realistic look, using multiply mode or a little opacity makes the wall texture visible as well.

Done!

Done. We've used motion tracking with rotation and scale, placed two distant points, applied the data, and attached the signboard with the target. In the next episode, we will stabilize shaky video with Warp Stabilizer. Need a promotional video, logo animation, motion graphics for social media, or visual effects for short films?
