1. Bring up Planar Tracker in Fusion tab 2. Click "Set" on the right hand side 3. Change Pattern to "Hybrid Point / Area" 4. Change Motion to "Translation" 5. Draw a box around object 6. Track until the end 7. Open Operations box and hit "Stabilize"
Thank you so much! I can't believe I never saw this video every time I search for motion tracking tutorials I get like an 8 minute video like please this doesn't need to be longer than a minute! Great video very helpful! Definitely subscribed in case you upload more helpful tips!
By the way if the tracker's not giving you any errors but it's also not tracking anything that's because it's not actually connected to your video so you will have to do that manually, just connect the arrow on the left to the start of the video's arrow and the square on the end of the tracker to the arrow on the end of it and it should count it as inside the video (probably a more elegant way to do it but it works!)
Seems to work pretty good , thanks. I’d hoped the stabilization was such that it would/could simply center the tracked object, I.e. on a bouncy ship i could center a whale when zooming at 40x. Maybe I missed the trick. DaVinci has a lot of tricks
Love it! I don't even need it for my kind of videos, but I made a small clip with this info just because you did so well explaining this. The most pointless tracked clip ever! lol but it works so well!
Good tutorial, to the point with no BS and even under a minute, I'll have a look next time - this time, I was already masochistic enough to do it by hand with Position, Yaw, Pitch and Rotation. I can use this way to track a second chroma- or luma keyed out video around, right?
0:31 I know this is a small deal but saying to click a square box instead of click a triangle (like you do and like the program wants) was a little confusing for me. Thank you very much for your tutorials I've found them very helpful while I transfer from Hitfilm to DaVinchi!!
It wont track the object ive selected at all, its a bright green triangle in a dark background so it should be able to see it but the geometric shape i drew to highlight it just stays in place, does not track like in your video
The borders don't make sense. The tracked area was always inside the frame. So what is the point of cropping? The only reason I can think of is if you wanted the tracked area to be fixed and everything else moves around the tracked area.
Direct and good tutorial!👌 HOWEVER, I of course ran into a problem. I am editing a video of me riding a bike down a mountain. It is shot at around 120mm focal length and during this 18 second clip, it is not possible to simply zoom in afterwards to get rid of the "blank" borders. Any tips on how to dix this?
Any tips on how to handle tacking things that gets briefly blocked from camera pov before popping back out again (context I am trying to track a player in volleyball that gets blocked by a teammate). The track seems to lose my subject and the moment they get blocked and starts tracking something else even when they re-appear.
Cut out that part of the video thats getting blocked and track it manually - I plan to do an entire group of videos relating to tracking ive just been busy with my main channel! :(
Excellent tutorial, thank you... Im just finding an issue: when I create the box and click on the "play" button for it to track, it does nothing... how can I fix this?
Doesn't work: the "track to end" never reaches end of track, so I have to keep tweaking the vertex dots on preview, and then the final result tracks (sort of) but doesn't track in the CENTER of the screen
Cool! Now how do I apply an image to the tracking. It's tracking for the frames I want, but can't apply an image to it. Does it matter that im tracking visible parts of a greenscreen image?
OK. I assume I know what is the issue. This message about FAILED is appear when you just push once on the object. Which is not enough. You need to really DRAW a square around an object and final dot should be linked with the first one. After that tracking will work. This was not so clear explained by author.
i followed your tutorial twice, and when i press the button to start tracking, it only tracks the first couple frames and then just straight up stops tracking. the object that im trying to track is clearly visible the entire time, only changing expression twice. what am i doing wrong? am i dumb??? (probably)
I have the same issue. I think it's because the object or area you're tracking gets overlapped by a different object in the video, confusing the program.
Hi I tried to hold control and press space but it didn't bring up select tool menu. I run an Apple mac. I've tried going through all the settings but can't find it...
Davinci is a very powerful program however like AE its not user friendly for beginners - aside from AI Tracking I use Premiere Pro for almost everything becuase of how easy it is to use (im also biased because of my main channel Adobe Made Simple) lol
Didn't work. I created a box around the person I wanted to track, and the box moved completely off track to the right of the screen after a few seconds
@@davincimadesimple Guy on another video told me object tracking is not what I need for what I'm trying to do. I forget what he called it, but it's a different effect. All I need to do is keep a person in the frame, because he keeps moving off frame
What I can't stand is these videos are so fucking simple but for some dumbass reason the tracker will give me an error when I press forward after trying to make my square box: Track failed pattern polygon must be closed to fix this problem set plantar track one operation to track And if I actually get it to work, It just loses the object and stays there blurring up everything instead wherever it happens to be parked at. I'm new to this I'm just trying to use the blur tool to fix occlusions on a deep fake. The occlusion is gone very quickly so it's not like I can tell the tracker to vanish once it's patched those frames.
@@odevnohmy I know it wasn't working despite that. But the funniest thing of all is the program won't even work now. I upgraded my GPU and that's all that I changed and that's the only thing I can think of. I went from a super old AMD cards to a modern medium level Nvidia and now The program stops responding as soon as it loads up lol. I quit.

Instant sub for the exact same reason

So rare these days
Could have been better if the viewer wasn't locked in to a :20 ad for a :52 tip.
I can't tell you how many videos I gave up on before I came across this. This is to the point and as a tutorial should be. Thank you for this.
I’m glad it could help you - was never a fan of wasting peoples time :)
1. Bring up Planar Tracker in Fusion tab
2. Click "Set" on the right hand side
3. Change Pattern to "Hybrid Point / Area"
4. Change Motion to "Translation"
5. Draw a box around object
6. Track until the end
7. Open Operations box and hit "Stabilize"
*Thumbs up*
I put the square around what i want to track and then did the steps but it just doesnt track
This is the best kind of tutorial possible, quick and straight to the point. THANK YOU! If only everyone made instructional videos this way!!
Thank you!! I appreciate that! :)
Watched Videos for 30 minutes and this man explains it in 52 seconds. It works perfectly. Thank you

Thank you man, you're a life saver! I wonder how many people didn't get it right because of this simple mistake..☹
@@GobarHU TBH even after doing it the tracking doesn't work half the time lol
ive been stuck all day, this fixed it. you are a god send

Thank you for not dragging this out and being very clear and concise! Earned a like from me.
Thank you! :)
Control + space? Shift + space, right? Love the short tut!
Both of them seem to work on my end! :) - Thanks for the compliment!!
I'm on Mac! For me shift + space worked thank you so much haha

Really excellent tutorial for beginners like me. Thank you!
Yes sir, that's a perfect tutorial. Thank you!
Thank you!! :)
Excellent and to the point as always....
Thanks Vincent! :)
very helpful i love straightforward tutorials like this :) will be using this for animal rave edits lol
This is awesome!!!
Thank you so much.
I just want to ask, how do I connect another object (Clip or graphic) to the tracked object?
Your doing gods work my friend!
Thank you! I really try to just jump straight in :)
Wish there was a tutorial with shortcuts for MacOS
It wont track the object ive selected at all, its a bright green triangle in a dark background so it should be able to see it but the geometric shape i drew to highlight it just stays in place, does not track like in your video
The effect doesnt always work with every situation im afraid
Great video so far... when I try to do the step you do before stabilizing, DaVinci says that I have more frames than allowed... How do I solve this?
Im not actually sure but I will look into it!
@@davincimadesimple that'd be epic ... thank you very much
best explanation ever, thanks bro
You're welcome my friend!
I am using the davinci studio but the control space doesn’t work for me. How can I fix this? Also your videos are awesome 👍
What do you mean control space ? - and thank you :D
On Mac is shift + space

The box you created might not be big enough or davinci is having issues tracking that specific part of the video through the end
Easy, mostly because of you mastering it
Thank you for the nice comment! :)

I like the way he sharing to everyone
Love this buddy🫂
Thank you! :)
Is there a way to animate the zoom effect so it doesn't just quickly cut to being zoomed in?
This might just be playback lag within davinci - Export it and see if it still does it
THANK YOU
it says track failed: invalid tracker polygon
I’m not sure what would be causing this
OK. I assume I know what is the issue. This message about FAILED is appear when you just push once on the object. Which is not enough. You need to really DRAW a square around an object and final dot should be linked with the first one. After that tracking will work. This was not so clear explained by author.
@@HTVVP thanks you, you helped me
What do you do if the object is moving. The tracking stops or starts tracking something else
If the object moves too much or moves off screen the effect wont work properly - as far as i know theres no way around this
i followed your tutorial twice, and when i press the button to start tracking, it only tracks the first couple frames and then just straight up stops tracking. the object that im trying to track is clearly visible the entire time, only changing expression twice. what am i doing wrong? am i dumb???

@@FloydDrzy ok that’s probably it
Yes this is exactly it - the AI that runs the tracker isnt perfect and things like that can cause it to just give up essentially
whenever i press track to end, it only tracks to the second frame
Need to select track forward!
i did@@davincimadesimple
So useful!
Thank you!
Great! Thanks a lot
You're welcome!
Nice vido but how can I add an object to the tracked part and replace it with like a picture
Hi I tried to hold control and press space but it didn't bring up select tool menu. I run an Apple mac. I've tried going through all the settings but can't find it...
Im not sure what it is on a mac :(
Shift-space
can you slow down an audio without changing the pitch in davinci? I need an app or something that would make me do that
I'm trying to slow down my AI voice since it speaks too fast without changing the pitch
Im actually working on a video on this exact topic - look for it soon :)
looking forward to it!!@@davincimadesimple
thank you!
You’re welcome!!
thank you
Mine doesnt do anything when I click Track to end
Hey bro it works but if I like shake something it only goes up but not down? why is this?
Hmm i'm not sure honestly
I FUCKING LOVE YOU MAN!!!
"Track failed: invalid current time" I did everything in your video step by step to three different clip. All came out to error
Very good idea, thx :)
You're welcome! :)
do i have some options if i don’t want to zoom in?
The zoom is required otherwise you have to deal with ugly black borders
It doesn’t wanna connect to the line as soon as I add on the planer tracker
you can connect the nodes manually - just click and drag!
I come up with a render range error every single time. I am not sure how to fix this
awesome desrves more views
Appreciate the nice comment! ;)
Track failed: invalid reference time
The reference time 0 must be within the render range (which is currently set to 62794, 63062)
Help?
you didn't press set
is this included with free version or the paid version of davinci anyone know??
I believe this is a paid studio only effect
the tracking just stops after 15 frames, pls help
0:31 It is not tracking to the end of my video, what do I do?
Same here

Sigh, alright I'm switching to davinci resolve fron AE
Davinci is a very powerful program however like AE its not user friendly for beginners - aside from AI Tracking I use Premiere Pro for almost everything becuase of how easy it is to use (im also biased because of my main channel Adobe Made Simple) lol
Didn't work. I created a box around the person I wanted to track, and the box moved completely off track to the right of the screen after a few seconds
It wont work with 100% of videos - there needs to be a bit of contrast between your subject and the surroundings environment!
@@davincimadesimple Guy on another video told me object tracking is not what I need for what I'm trying to do. I forget what he called it, but it's a different effect. All I need to do is keep a person in the frame, because he keeps moving off frame

@@davincimadesimple So you don't know anything about that or if object tracking is ever used for that?
how did you create the box??
I LOVE YOTUUBERS LIKE YOU
My tracker goes one frame then stops.
This is not working when the moving object has a lot of motion blur lol
Yeah, there’s affect doesn’t work with every situation unfortunately
This doesn't work, it only tracks for half a second then stops
i love you
Lol thank you! :D
😊😊
:)
How tf do I draw the box?
did you figure it out?
@@reececrawfordnope
All you have to do is click on a few points on the preview screen to make the box
What I can't stand is these videos are so fucking simple but for some dumbass reason the tracker will give me an error when I press forward after trying to make my square box:
Track failed pattern polygon must be closed to fix this problem set plantar track one operation to track And if I actually get it to work, It just loses the object and stays there blurring up everything instead wherever it happens to be parked at.

@@odevnohmy no worries. I'll figure out something else if it matters enough
dosn't work, tracker won't simply track my object.
same issue, tried it on multiple things, some big some small, idk if the FPS needs to be very high or what but there's no error message or anything
found the issue, the tracker might not connect to the video automatically so you have to connect it yourself :D
