Think Bigger From Filmora User Guide
Mocha Filmora - For Windows
Using Filmora's native tracking tool, the editor struggles to maintain accurate placement, especially when the runner's body twists and moves rapidly, causing the logo to jitter or lose alignment. However, with the new plugin introduced by Wondershare Filmora, users can now conveniently mark objects, add parameters, and adjust the parameters according to their preferences. Editors can now apply tracked effects with greater realism, accuracy, and speed using Mocha UI.
You can access this utility under the "Effects" section of this tool. You get the ability to utilize this feature in two languages, including English and Japanese. The effect provides various functions to create a visually appealing video with in-depth editing that looks professional.
