Little experiment with shiny balls ...

First (very quick) test at combining 3D animations with live footage.

My test clip wasn't probably the best to start on - lots of camera shake and harsh movements, and geometry overlapping .... but not too bad for a first attempt and without using set markers. Even this took a full day to combine and track.

Will attempt to add my cars to some real footage next ...

YouTube is a bit pish at retaining correct FPS. Original 720P footage looks a lot better.
