I have been struggling for weeks to figure out how to do this for an assignment and by far your tutorial has been the most informative and helpful at helping me do what I wanted so thank you so much!!! Wonderful work!🙌👏
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!!
Your screen reflections on the phone? Just a solid/gradient sliding over in the pre comp, right?
You are so underrated and your videos are so helpful dude
Thanks so much! Glad it was helpful
Thank you for this tutorial, I had to use footage like this but without the crosshairs, just the green screen. still Mocha did the job just fine!
Great! Thanks for watching
AMAZING!!! Best tutorial out there for this!!!
Wow, thanks!
You are a great teacher :) Thank you!
Thanks so much!
Thank you! This has been the best video on screen replacements I've seen!
Thanks so much!!
@@linestodesigns where can i get the video templates you used
@@Mr.James420 Unfortunately I cant re-distribute the footage i used due to license restrictions, but this is the clip that was used!

@@linestodesigns thanks bro but I want the video which you added in mobile 🙏🙏
@@linestodesigns bro atlist tell me the name of the video which you added top of the green screen plz 🙏🥺
Great stuff keep it up!
Appreciate it!
How do you fix the track? it is off look at the clock on the screen.
Thanks for this tutorial!
Can we still track the corners precisely if the screen only has a green screen without the crosses?
Yes you can! Mocha AE is super precise and does an impressive job even without crosshairs, if you select the spots on the screen edges that have the most contrast it will pick up the track easily! Thanks for watching!
@@linestodesigns Thank you :)
great tut
Thanks so much!
Excellent tutorial, except I would add to make sure that you have no edges showing within the shape in mocha. It's okay if what you need to superimpose overlaps with the phone but there cannot be any gaps. Also, was also doing a vertical phone screen and when I rotated it -90 it made it rotated on the final result. It worked when I didn't rotate it. I'm not sure why it worked for you and not me, but something to play with if other people are having the same issue!
Thanks so much!
my footage looks streched when I do the apply export
Thanks short and simple❤
You're welcome 😊
Hi bro ... Can you share the footage
Thanks!!!!
You bet!
amzing tutorial, Can you please show me how to use mocha tracking for real estate and landmarks on the property with lines and text? I would really appreciate that. Thank you so much.
Great suggestion!
I am doing exactly the same things as you with horribly different results... when I apply the export to the top layer it is not fitted to the screen but covers my entire screen in the main comp and starts warping and moving -- some tracking is being done but the top layer stays full screen.
Make sure your top layer you are superimposing is the same as the composition proportions- you can achieve this by pre-comping the layer before you apply the tracking data to it
I tried this and for some reason when I apply the track data, the layer moves off the screen. Both layers have the same resolution and aspect ratio. I don't know what is happening :(
I have the same problem... Did you ever figure out why that happened?
@@PaginaDeRedSocial What I did is create a null object and then create the track data and apply it to that null object. Then I took the image/video, converted it into a pre-comp and make the null object the parent layer. I don't know if it makes sense, my english isn't very good. That did work and it didn't broke the aligment
@@PaginaDeRedSocial Yes, I applied the tracking data to a null object then linked the null object with the layer I wanted to move
I am following the instructions to the T... I even made sure the overlay is already the exact shape and size as the clip. When I try to link them up, the overlay shrinks and rotates and appears way outside of the bounds of the video, as if it was put where the video finishes. HOW DO I MAKE IT WORK?!
Make sure you are selecting the “align surface” in mocha and also making sure your overlay layer is precomped to ensure it’s the same exact proportions as your main comp - hope this helps!
hey what if the video clip doesnt have motion tracking markers?
Great question- I have another video that covers exactly that -
3 Methods to Mastering Screen Replacement in After Effects

it tracks horribly to my footage I had a green screen with cross hairs and still slips everywhere. I end up key framing hundreds of frames by hand and the end result is still terrible.
Sorry to hear that! A lot of times the tracking can get messed up if the lighting on the screen isn’t great
Same. Trying to track a high quality video of a phone with green screen that I have made on Blender, good lighting, but Mocha is just incapable of following the screen edges. I fix it manually and it constantly moves the previous ones that I already repositioned. Very frustrating and disappointing.
@@LehimobI’m trying to understand your comment. You made a phone in Blender. You then rendered it out of Blender and brought it into AE in order to track it with Mocha AE for screen replacement? If I have described the issue correctly, there is a script for Blender that allows you to export the 3D data and import it into AE. You wouldn’t need Mocha AE (in this scenario).
Good video, thank You! But was too fast paced. I can't keep up. Please little lower.
Well, it would be much easier to remove and adjust the corners of the overlay in its comp. The easiest way is to add a picture of this phone (e.g. find in Google). Or simply mask out the corners of the overlay, and then lock the main comp (make a two-screen view) and adjust the masks. But it's just my opinion, based on my personal practice. And of course, it would be useful to say a couple of words about compositing, at least mention some basic adjustments, like matching the color (tint), grain, noise...
Thanks so much for your input!
@@linestodesigns ua-cam.com/video/A9H3HYdxs-A/v-deo.html This is my work, I've replaced around 350 messages in 150 scenes, so I can say that I know what I am talking about ;) But the video is really useful for beginners. Thank you.
This did not work for me at all :((
