As a freelancer for Accenture Song VFX, I worked from July 2022 to February 2024 on 246 shots: 209 anamorphic matchmove shots, 33 roto shots, and four compositing shots. In total this represented around 1400 hours of work.
Testing CoTracker2 for VFX inside my Silhouette RotoFury interface. The results are very promising for speeding up everyday VFX tasks such as tracking, roto, and matchmove.
It is one of the best ML algorithms currently available for this kind of work, with immediate practical applications.
