Both mocha Plus and mocha Pro 4.0 will be demonstrated by Imagineer Systems at IBC.
Replacing Imagineer’s mocha AE product, mocha Plus adds VFX modules including a 3D camera solver, lens correction tools for After Effects and support for copying and pasting mocha roto masks directly to the Premiere Pro timeline. mocha Plus also supports numerous compositing and editing applications including recent versions of Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro CC 2014, Apple Final Cut Pro and Motion, HitFilm, and Boris FX plug-ins.
“mocha Plus represents a new product category for Imagineer,” said Ross Shain, chief marketing officer, Imagineer Systems. “Now Adobe Creative Cloud customers have a clear distinction between mocha AE CC, which is bundled free with After Effects and Imagineer’s upgraded version which adds advanced features and support for Premiere Pro.
“mocha Plus addresses the growing needs of freelance artists and editors, hitting the sweet spot between needing advanced capabilities like planar tracking and roto tools, and budgeting constraints. After Effects users will also gain significant features by upgrading the Adobe bundled mocha AE CC to mocha Plus.”
mocha Pro 4.0 includes new native stereo workflow tools and support for Python scripting. This includes tools to analyse differences between right and left camera streams and apply the solved disparity in 2D tracking, 3D camera solving, an object remove module and image stabilisation.
“We are streamlining many of the complex corrective tasks that come with large S3D projects and expanding the compatibility of mocha Pro with visual effects applications such as Nuke, Ocula and Adobe After Effects. This allows a wider audience of VFX professionals to tackle some of the more dense effects work such as S3D rotoscoping, motion tracking and object removal,” Shain said. “With Python scripting, VFX houses can better customise their workflows.”
