On track for work

Camera tracking is an essential skill for any would-be VFX artist looking to prove their worth to potential employers.

Our unique tutorial teaches you how to use PFTrack to realistically track 3D objects inside a live action scene in 12 hours of HD tutorials supported by extensive course notes and related videos.

No other online Visual Effects (VFX) tutorial covers the same ground in such detail. All you need is a working knowledge of Maya. At the end of the course you’ll have a completed scene featuring 3D objects successfully tracked, lit and animated, ready to drop into your showreel.
