The Basics of Avid Media Composer for a Final Cut Pro Editor
by Scott Simmons

This is a powerful planar motion tracker and stabilizer that does an amazing job of tracking all kinds of elements in motion or to stabilize a character or a scene with shaky footage. Even though Mocha does a remarkable job of stabilizing footage I thought I’d put Mocha to the test with some hand-held footage from a compact DV cam and track the footage, shaking and all!

Hopefully this will provide you with a solid foundation on which you can build a new set of working practices.
