Hey folks,
Imagineer has received= some questions about the mocha AE version bundled with Adobe CC, so= we wrote up a quick blog FAQ. Link and info below.

Cheers,
Ross

Adobe Creative Cl= oud Info for Mocha Users
Recently Adobe shipped Creative Cloud, the = subscription based service that includes new versions of After Effects, Pre= miere and more. Imagineer's planar tracking and visual effects products= , mocha AE and mocha Pro are widely used by After Effects use= rs, so we wanted to take a moment and answer some common questions the AE c= ommunity has been asking about Adobe's new "CC" offerings.
Q. Is mocha AE still bundled with After Effects? Are there any new f= eatures?
A. Yes, After Effects CC now ships with a new, updated ver= sion called "mocha AE CC".

mocha AE CC is no= t a plug-in. To launch, select a layer in AE and go to:
Animation>Track in mocha AE

mocha AE CC has been up= dated with the following fixes and new features:
support for RED Digital= Cinema (.r3d) footage
new layer grouping & multi-select
dope she= et for moving, copy/paste keyframes
transform tool for editing roto splines
multi-spline selection and modif= ication
attach layers tool to link points of separate layers
ability = to customize color for mattes & splines
ability to see individual pi= xels when zooming
many bug fixes

Q. Do I need to be connected to the internet to ru= n mocha AE CC?
A. Only for installation. mocha AE CC has the same te= chnical requirements as After Effects CC. You can learn more about Creative= Cloud here:
http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html

= Q. Can I upgrade mocha AE CC?
A. Yes. We will accept upgrades from = any registered version of mocha AE including those bundled with AE CS4-CS6 = and AE CC. Registering your bundled mocha AE CC will qualify you for the re= duced upgrade paths to other mocha products.
Note: You only need to subscribe for 1 month to qualify for the upgrade pat= h.

Q. I am interested in upgrading to mocha AE v3.1 OR mocha Pro.= What is the difference between the bundled version and what you sell?<= br> A. =A0mocha AE CC includes 2D planar tracking and roto tools for After Effe= cts CC only.

Upgrading to mocha AE v3.1 for $195 USD adds advanced m= odules for 3D camera solving, lens distortion and support for Final Cut v7,= Boris FX and HitFilm.

Upgrading to mocha Pro v3.1 for $795 adds advanced modules for object r= emoval, stabilization and support for applications such as Flame, Smoke, Sc= ratch, Nuke and more.

Q. Can I launch mocha Pro from After Effects CC?

A. =A0Yes, you = can set mocha Pro or mocha AE to launch from within AE CC. Si= mply run the upgraded mocha product first time from start up icon an= d set the preferences to " Use this version with AE". The next ti= me you "track in mocha AE" it will launch the version you selecte= d.

Q. After Effects CC includes 3D Camera Tracking, why do I still need= mocha AE?
A. mocha is a planar tracker and uses algorithms that are= different than point or camera tracking. After Effects users still find ma= ny projects in which mocha's tools is help solve their challenge... aft= er all, the mocha team won an academy award for tracking! mocha's uniqu= e image analysis engine often solves tracks where other trackers fail: trac= king objects that go off-screen, objects that are partially obscured, even = grainy and noisy footage. Planar tracking can be used for screen inserts, d= igital makeup and face tracking, set-extensions, assisted roto and much mor= e.

Q. Does the mochaImport+ script= work with After Effects CC?
A. Yes. D= ownload the new version here: http://aescripts.com/mochaimport/
