Hello I filming WRC/Rally type videos and while watching Eurosport for the IRC Monte Carlo Rally they overlayed 2 clips together:

YouTube - IRC 2011 Monte Carlo Review Day 1 Part 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgxyFdAi_eQ&feature=related)

0:45 seconds in and you'll see what I mean.

Any ideas how to do that?

The only idea I have is that they use pre-programmed camera movements on the tripod, so the pans and tilts are absolutely identical. Then it is easy. They use this technique quite a bit with high speed sports events, like downhill skiing as well and they can create these views in a matter of seconds.

Pre-programmable motorized tripod heads with not be cheap however. Have a look here: Weatherproof Motorized Pan and Tilt Systems, Everything you need and ready to use. Everything is complete and is ready for immediate use. Comes as a complete package with everything needed. We supply all the equipment necessary for a complete system. (http://www.21best.com/21_best/electronic/security/video/pan_tilt/for_sale_.html) or search on Google for: "programmable motorized tripod head movements".

Yep I'm sent them an email, hope its not too expensive though. It would be a great feature for me.

I've had a reply and the software costs £3000/$5000 - So I think I'll pass on that.

Would be cool if they would produce a plugin for Ae/Pr

The TeamPro version for students is $ 1,560 in the US. Wonder how many students can afford that?

I did download the trial version and it does seem good but the software seems rubbish to use.

Anyone know of any Pr Plugins that would do this?
