mocha2Ok how cool is it that FMC sponsor Imagineer Systems is letting us giveaway a copy of their new Mocha AE 2? I would say extremely cool! If you have never used Mocha in any form it is a tremendous, time saving tool for2D tracking and Roto work. Please if you are from Jupiter and never heard of it TRY it right now! Time is money and very precious! This tool is fast and hard working, getting the job done the first time. Mocha AE2 allows you to export tracking data into After Effects for a smooth transition.

Here is some info from Imagineer Systems site:

mocha for After Effects v2 has two key toolsets that After Effects users are always asking for: A solid 2D tracker and rotoscoping tools with variable, per-point edge feathering.

The tracker in mocha for After Effects is based on Imagineer's unique 2.5D Planar Tracking technology, which is significantly more robust than productstraditional point trackers, such as the one found in After Effects. mocha for After Effects will enable you to get a track, even in situations where you have objects moving out of frame, lack of detail, motion blur and heavy grain. mocha for After Effects innovative AdjustTrack tool helps remove drift and enables you to extract offset tracking data for areas that go off screen.

Everyone knows that with a good track, rotoscoping becomes easier. mocha for After Effects v2 introduces the new mocha shape data export feature, enabling you to create detailed masks in mocha for After Effects and then simply copy and paste these into After Effects*

How do I win this awesome app Dave?

All you need to do is follow both Imagineer Systems (@allanjaenicke) and FMC (@themediamogul) on Twitter.com. ReTweet the link to this post. AND leave a comment below on why you NEED this!

We will pick a winner LIVE via our Kyte channel (and tweet it too) at NAB2009! Entries must be no later than April 17th.

Best of luck!
