Mocha for After Effects

For motion tracking, there's a relatively new tool available called mocha for After Effects that will give you  more options and ease of use than the Tracker that is within After Effects. mocha is software that comes with the Adobe Creative Suite, but isn't integrated within AE. You'll have to look for it on the computers here at school. Open Finder and click Applications. Then do a search for "mocha." Click on "mocha for After Effects" and the interface will open. I found some tutorials on the AEtuts.com website that will help you get started. You can also find video tutorials on YouTube and Vimeo as well. Have fun!
