Camera Footage Projection

Camera Footage Projection creates a live, non-destructive front projection from a tracked camera background image, sequence, or movie clip onto a mesh.

Workflow steps

  1. Assign the plate to a tracked camera background.
  2. Choose the receiving mesh and projection camera.
  3. Select the correct one-based background slot.
  4. Optionally limit the material to a scene or camera-key frame range.
  5. Choose Exact Emission or Lit Base Color.
  6. Create or update the live projection.

Important details

The managed setup reproduces camera animation, lens, shift, orthographic scale, and camera-background Fit, Crop, Stretch, offset, scale, rotation, and flips. Existing polygon material assignments are preserved.

Use an undistorted plate because Blender cameras are ideal pinhole cameras. Dense receiving geometry improves UV interpolation, and the mesh must stay in front of the projector camera.

Remove Projection deletes only MotionMaster 3D managed nodes, modifiers, UV data, and materials. It does not alter unrelated surface materials.

Point Cloud Surface

Point Cloud Surface reconstructs a controllable 2.5D mesh from a Blender Point Cloud or mesh vertices. It is intended for floors, roads, walls, facades, and other surfaces that can be represented as one depth over a fitted plane.

Lens Calibration and STMap Export

The Heavy Tracking lens workflow preserves the complete solved COLMAP camera model and exports portable calibration JSON plus float STMaps for undistorting the original plate and redistorting CG back into it.

Multi-Frame Texture Bake

Multi-Frame Texture Bake fuses visible observations from one or more tracked camera plates into a permanent packed texture for static reflection, lighting, and shadow-catching geometry.
