On this tutorial, you will study the fundamentals of digicam monitoring. To comply with alongside, be sure to open up the digicam monitoring.aep file, which you’ll obtain right here.

You are additionally going to want the HYPERLAPSE LOUVRE.mov file which you’ll obtain from Envato Components:

To start out, I will create a brand new composition with my footage. Click on and drag the footage onto the New Comp button to do that.

Open up the Tracker panel by going to Window > Tracker.

![tracker](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=360/uploads/users/403/posts/42005/image-upload/camera_tracking_04.jpg)
Within the Tracker panel, click on on the Observe Digicam button.Â
![track camera](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/403/posts/42005/image-upload/camera_tracking_05.jpg)

That is going to place a 3D digicam tracker impact on this layer, and After Results will get to work analyzing this footage.

You are able to do different issues because it’s analyzing the footage and understanding this observe as a result of it will take a little bit of time.
After Results analyzes the video sequence and extracts the digicam movement and 3D scene information. This permits us to composite 3D parts over 2D footage, along with including 2D parts to the 3D setting.
So should you click on on the Digicam Tracker and scrub within the timeline, you will notice that there are a whole bunch of trackers which have been utilized to the footage. For probably the most half, these are locked to sure components of the footage.Â

For instance, there are a number of trackers on this constructing, and as you scrub alongside, these trackers do not transfer round a lot in comparison with those within the foreground.Â

Now I am going to present you methods to make textual content look as if it is hovering immediately above this pyramid. To try this, I must do two issues:
- Create a digicam.
- Insert some textual content.
So let’s scrub alongside the timeline and discover someplace that has a good quantity of monitoring factors on the very high. That is going to work as a result of the gap between these monitoring factors is comparatively minimal.
So should you click on on the high of the pyramid, it’ll create a variety between three monitoring factors.

If you wish to choose extra, which is typically helpful for getting a greater observe, you’ll be able to simply draw a variety round a number of monitoring factors.

Click on on the Create Digicam button.
![create camera button](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/403/posts/42005/image-upload/camera_tracking_11.jpg)

![create camera button](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=360/uploads/users/403/posts/42005/image-upload/camera_tracking_11.jpg)
Proper-click right here, and you may see all of the choices you could create. Let’s choose Create Textual content.
![create text](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/403/posts/42005/image-upload/camera_tracking_12.jpg)

And you may see now that it has created some textual content that appears as if it is a part of the scene. Click on on the play preview button to see what it seems to be like.

It seems to be as if it is monitoring fairly properly. Nonetheless, the orientation is not nice. For this specific shot, I am going to decide a bit the place the entrance is fairly flat, after which I am going to attempt to line up the rotation of my textual content to that.

Choose the textual content layer and press R to convey up the rotation, after which you’ll be able to alter the orientation to make it look higher. You can even alter the size and place.

Congratulations! And that is how you need to use After Results for Superior Digicam Monitoring. Now that you’ve got discovered this method, take a look at a number of the different tutorials we’ve on Adobe After Results under.
I hope you’ve got discovered this tutorial helpful, and I am going to see you subsequent time on Envato Tuts+!
