Tracking and matching CG with real footage - Tutorial

Hey guys! In this one I'll be talking about matching cg with real footage which is still something that I'm having a bit of struggle with. But my mindset is currently to make a new shot everyday until its Hollywood quality. Hope y'all find this one helpful :)

Hey man great stuff. If you right click your imported image sequence and go to interpret footage you can change it from interpreting at 30 frames per second to 24 frames per second. Then it will match your footage. It's under main options and says "Assume this frame rate". And another quick tip, use match grain in AE it'll sample your footage and apply the grain to your rendered footage.

To denoise shadows try this! https://blenderartists.org/t/i-cannot-denoise-the-shadow-catcher/1259243/2 I tested and it works fine: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2y9bi4ca6f75m1n/test_denoise_shadow.blend?dl=0
