Q: Locking mask down on moving image?
Is there a tracking tool in FCPX?
I've put an 8 pt. mask (from FCPEffects.com) on a computer monitor in a shot. The layer underneath contains the shot I want ON the computer monitor (a still basically). The principal shot is moving just slightly. I did a bunch of keyframes to keep the mask in the appropriate location, not ideal because it isn't locked with the image. But when I have the still in the underneath layer ... I'd have to keyframe every second frame.
I'm just wondering if there is a tracking function in FCPX, like there is in Motion, and if so, where I could start looking?
Otherwise I'll go work with Motion. But it would be nice to be able just to keep everything in FCPX.
All ears,
