Tracking multiple faces and license plates can be one of those jobs that sounds simple until the shot starts moving, people walk in and out of frame, objects overlap, and suddenly, you’re spending more time fixing tracks than using them. That’s where Silhouette’s ML-powered Object Tracker comes in.
With just a few clicks, it can automatically detect faces or license plates, create the tracking shapes and layers for you, and follow them through the shot. So whether you’re highlighting faces, blurring license plates, creating quick mattes, or generating tracking data for a fast turnaround, this is a huge time-saver.
