Product description

• Mocha Pro 5 Standalone + Multi Host Plug-In (Upgrade from v4, Download) Mocha Pro 5 is the flagship planar tracking and roto application from Imagineer Systems. Mocha Pro 5 features advanced modules for Object Removal, 3D Camera, Stabilization, and Lens Correction.
  
  Pairing the Standalone and Multi-Host Plug-In versions of Mocha Pro 5 under a single serial number, this bundle offers the flexibility to use the software totally individually and at the same time right from within Adobe, Avid, and select OFX applications.
  
  The compatible hosts of the plug-in version are Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects CC 2014-2018, Avid Media Composer 8+, Foundry NUKE, Blackmagic Fusion, Vegas Pro, and HitFilm. The plug-in uses the host's media engine and project format, reducing the need for transcoding or external file management. It can be used in all hosts at the same time, as long as on the same computer. Mocha Pro 5 is compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux systems.
  
  The standalone version can render finished shots as well as export data to select post-production software. The plug-in has all the same features of the standalone version except for Silhouette FX import/export, Python Scripting, and Stereoscopic 3D. The plug-in can be used in a stereoscopic workflow in the host, but doesn't offer any of the stereoscopic tools available in the standalone version.
  
  The award-winning planar tracker is now updated with GPU acceleration in Mocha Pro 5, and the resulting speed increases provide for much more superior workflows with high resolution footage.
  
  Mocha Pro has been used on thousands of feature films and television shows, including Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Mad Max: Fury Road, and Game of Thrones. Note: This is an upgrade from the standalone, node-locked version of mocha Pro 4 to both the standalone and multi-host plug-in versions of mocha Pro 5, also node-locked.
  New Features
  • GPU Acceleration
    Mocha Pro 5 features the capability to run planar tracking on GPU. Tests have resulted in 40-60% speed increases, depending on the project settings. To enable GPU tracking, you will need an OpenCL capable video card.
    
    Python Scripting (Available in Standalone Version)
    Mocha Pro 5 includes a Python scripting module with in-application interface. Python lets artists and technical directors control the user interface, modify and edit functions, and integrate with external applications and asset management systems. Python is a widely used scripting language that is completely integrated into Mocha Pro 5.
    
    Silhouette Import & Export (Available in Standalone Version)
    Mocha Pro 5 has the ability to import and export roto shapes to and from Silhouette FX.
    
    Fusion Shape Export
    Mocha Pro 5 exports tracked roto shapes to Blackmagic Design Fusion.
    
    HitFilm Track Export
    Mocha Pro 5 is also capable of exporting planar motion tracking data to HitFilm 4 Pro as a corner pin import.
  Planar Tracking
  • The renowned Mocha planar tracking has now been updated for speed and efficiency with GPU tracking and plug-in options. Planar tracking is at the heart of all Mocha Pro modules and is used to drive 2D and 3D tracking, roto-masking, object removal, and more. Unlimited tracking layers and advanced AdjustTrack interface can handle reflections, occlusions, noise, even areas with motion blur or low details.
  Advanced Roto Tools
  • X-spline and Bezier tools are designed to quickly create and edit detailed roto shapes. When linked to Mocha's planar tracking, roto shapes inherit motion and perspective, dramatically reducing manual keyframe work. Advanced tools for shape editing include per-point edge feathering, join layers tool, transform tool, group layers, and more.
  Object Removal
  • Mocha Pro 5's Remove Module is an advanced alternative to traditional clone and paint techniques for getting rid of unwanted pixels and removing objects. It automatically detects and blends pixels from other frames with little user input, offering massive time savings. Mocha Pro's clean plate functionality imports and corrects fixed frames for digital beauty work and matte painting.
  Insert Module
  • Mocha Pro 5's Insert Module allows you to render an image onto your tracked surface within Mocha Pro or back to your host timeline with the available plug-in options. Composite with realistic motion blur or render out the tracked insert. A powerful mesh warp distortion tool allows the user to wrap and bend inserts onto non-flat surfaces. The Insert Module combines with the Lens Module for realistic VFX compositing on distorted footage.
  Lens Module
  • This simple and easy-to-use interface allows users to calibrate the distortion introduced by camera lenses. Unwanted lens distortion can be removed or matched for realistic compositing. Export lens data or render correction using available plug-in options.
  3D Camera Solver
  • Solve 3D match moving capabilities with planar ease. Unlike feature based tracking, Mocha solves the 3D camera based on user-selected planes. This fast and easy-to-use solution is ideal for set extensions, 3D text, and particle tracking. Additionally, the 3D Solver can be used to assist other 3D tracking applications on difficult shots with low detail or significant foreground occlusions.
  Stabilize Module
  • The stabilize module can lock down camera motion or stabilize moving objects for visual effects and finishing work. A smooth option with selectable anchor frames helps reduce high frequency jitters while maintaining original camera motion. Center, scale, or crop stabilized footage based on user driven planar tracking.
  Stereoscopic 3D (Available in Standalone Version)
  • Mocha Pro 5 supports native stereo 3D. This workflow uses planar tracking analysis on "both eye views" to reduce manual offsets and tedious keyframe work on stereo 3D rotoscoping, tracking, 3D camera solve, and object removal.

  WipeClouds
  • Transitions from the first clip to the second using a moving cloud texture. The Wipe Percent parameter should be animated to control the transition speed.
  WipeDiffuse
  • Wipes between two clips with a pixel-diffusion process performed within the transition area. The Wipe Percent parameter should be animated to control the transition speed.
  WipeDots
  • Performs a wipe transition between two clips using a grid of growing or shrinking dots. The Wipe Percent parameter should be animated to control the transition speed.
  WipeDoubleWedge
  • Performs a wipe transition between two clips using two wedge shapes. Increase the Border Width parameter to draw a border at the wipe transition edges.
  WipeFlux
  • Performs a wipe transition between two clips using a flux texture with mostly round cells. The Wipe Percent parameter should be animated to control the transition speed.
  WipeFourWedges
  • Performs a wipe transition between two clips using a pattern of four wedges merging into an 'X' shape.
  Zap
  • Simulates a TV with transmission and reception problems, VCR issues, and TV hardware difficulties. Features include static, interference, ghosting, horizontal and vertical hold.
  ZapFrom
  • Generates lightning bolts and electrical arcs from a given point to the edges of objects. Similar to Zap.
  ZapTo
  • Generates multiple lightning bolts and electrical arcs outward from the edges of objects. Similar to Zap.
  ZebraFy
  • Modulates the brightness of the source clip with a sinusoid to give a black and white solarized look.
  ZebraFyColor
  • Modulates the brightness of the source clip with sinusoids for each color channel to give a color striped effect.
  ZGlow
  • Glows areas of the clip with varying widths depending on the depth values from a ZBuffer input. Separates into layers and applies different amounts of glow.
