Motion Convert

Use Motion Convert to convert normalized 2D vectors into absolute vectors that you can work with in Flame.

To access the Motion Convert menu, use:

• Batch, then select a node from the Node bin.

• Timeline, then use Batch FX (see Creating Batch FX).

This node accepts a front clip, and forward and backward vectors. It outputs a result, as well as forward and backward vectors.

Motion Vectors are 2D vectors that represent the displacement in normalized pixel units of a pixel in the current frame to the next frame (forward motion vector), or its displacement from the previous frame (backward motion vector). Motion Vectors can be rendered by a 3D application when dealing with synthetic images, or produced through image analysis when images come from live action footage.

You can attach the forward and backward outputs from the Motion Analysis node or import motion data from another source.
