Intro to object tracking in Final Cut Pro for Mac
In Final Cut Pro, you can record the movement of an object in a video clip and then apply that recorded movement data to another item, such as a video effect, title, logo, or image. The result is an animation in which the item follows the tracked object in the original clip. For example, you can use object tracking to:
Track a blurry circle to a person’s face to preserve someone’s anonymity
Add a glow effect to the jet engines of an airplane streaking through the sky
Track the names of swimmers to their moving bodies as they compete in a swim meet
In Final Cut Pro, setting up object tracking is as easy as dragging a title, image, or effect to the viewer.
