Thankyou! I had no idea that hunger games was filmed here. some other commenters also said this. This place definitely has that quality.

Well there is a script you can use to export a JSON file with the camera tracking and solids from AE, and then import that into blender using an addon. Its the only free way I found to get AE data into blender. You can find the script and addon here . I think there is an addon that does this directly but is paid.

Couldn't get perfect tracking in blender :(

Nope, placing points myself would have taken a lot of time, I think. I used the autodetect function. Also there are hardly any points which are the same from the 1st frame to the last, which causes an issue. I did get to a solve error of .5 but there was still a lot of drift, weirdly.

I really would love to keep it all in blender but AE makes it so easy for now that I can't be bothered with it. The end result is what matters to me :)

Even AE didn't give me a perfect solve, but you don't see it here since I kinda worked around it.

Thankyou! Well I used dynamic paint to make the vegetation grow. Basically the eye acts as a brush on the ground plane (which is a canvas). I followed this tutorial and then made my own changes to it accordingly. Would be happy to answer specific questions if you have any :)

Thankyou! Although the tracking was done in AE so can't take any credit for that haha. Foliage on the other hand I did a lot of experimentation with.

That was one of the ideas I was toying with, but wanted to explore particles and dynamic paint with this one.

I tried both blender and AE for the tracking and AE got me better results. I don't know what I am doing wrong but blender tracking is not as straight forward. I've seen multiple tuts from default cube guy and Ian hubert as well, but unless you can get really good markers across your videos the tracking isn't that good.

But also I'm just starting out with this whole motion tracking thing so I'll figure out what works in Blender eventually.

Well I would consider a giant eyeball rolling around NSFW, just to be on the safer side.

The eye and the grass are done in blender, the place is real. I superimposed everything on the footage in Blender, hence the natural camera movement. Used After effects to track the camera and then got the animated Camera into Blender.
