i disagree i think th emusic is good considering where the objects in his demo are.
stevo351 (June 9, 2008 at 8:42 am)
can i do 3D tracking/matchmoving in shake alone?
samyousefian (June 9, 2008 at 4:22 pm)
depends on what you're trying to do
stevo351 (June 10, 2008 at 1:46 am)
same as what boujou or syntheyes does. (locates tracking points and places 3D files in them)
i know it probably doesnt but i cant find boujou or anything anywhere.

No, you can only do 2D tracking in shake... but you can cheat a few things and replace things like billboards or paintings. If you look at the first shot on this reel, I only needed Boujou to replace the 3D ceiling, since it has to be rendered in Maya. But the rug and painting could have been done with Shake alone.

ohk thanks for the info :)
