Do you have CS6?  Seems that should work pretty good.  Which choice are you using for your track data?  I am not looking at the moment but I believe the non-default choice to the older CS3 (where you save Mocha tracking data) I think it says, works well for that.

Okay Thanks.   Now a Mocha question.  As I stated below, trying to motion track a city aerial and apply to null, parent text to null.  Its kind of ok but not great.  The text is not really locked into the landscape.  Kind of drifting.  Do I sample a smaller area when tracking?  or should I apple stabilizer to the aerial first?

>> I have a solid color box 400x700 with a titles on it, precomposed the two layers.  Put in new comp and added a solid to apply Element.  I want to be able to extrude this box and position over a city aerial, motion track the aerial and apply to the box.  So this massive monolith title over its color bg is sitting in the city among the buildings.  Problem is I can't figure out how to get the title and color on my extruded Element object  I set custom layer to my pre comp title and particle replicator as my layer.  But no go.  Just get the blank model in Element.  Any suggestions?
