New release of mocha Pro planar tracking and masking software delivers GPU acceleration and streamlined workflows for editing, visual effects, and post-production.
Guildford, UK June 1, 2016 Imagineer Systems launches mocha Pro 5, a major new product release of the Academy-Award winning planar tracking, masking, object removal, and image stabilization software.
mocha Pro is the popular motion tracking and visual effects tool used on thousands of feature films and television shows, including Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Mad Max: Fury Road, Game of Thrones, and many more. The new mocha Pro version 5 adds GPU-accelerated planar tracking for speed increases and the ability to run as a plug-in within host applications such as Adobe Premiere Pro CC, After Effects CC, and Avid Media Composer with OFX support for The Foundry's NUKE and Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve coming soon.

The mocha Pro 5 release focuses on core improvements for speed and accessibility, says Ross Shain, CMO of Boris FX and Imagineer Systems. Imagineer engineers collaborated closely with the team at parent company Boris FX to update the mocha planar tracking algorithm to take advantage of OpenCL video processing. The resulting speed increases on high resolution and 4K projects has been tremendous. Shain continues, mocha has long been recognized as an essential tool in the visual effects workflow; consequently Avid and Adobe editors have been asking for mocha support for years. Now the plug-in option runs directly inside Media Composer, Premiere Pro, and After Effects without any import/export required. Feedback from the professional editing community has been super positive.
Boris FX has a long heritage of creating high-quality plugins for Avid Media Composer, says Kate Ketcham, product manager, Avid. Their collaboration with Imagineer Systems on a mocha Pro AVX plug-in enables editors to access mocha's unique planar tracking and object removal features without leaving the timeline for faster, more efficient finishing workflows.

Open CL GPU tracking performance: mocha planar tracking has been updated to take advantage of supported video card hardware for significantly faster motion tracking on high resolution sources.

Early beta testers are already giving mocha Pro 5 glowing reviews. Yoram Tal, a colorist & online editor on hit TV shows such as ABC's Dancing with the Stars and upcoming American Grit on FOX proclaims, The mocha Pro 5 plug-in is exactly what I have been asking for. As a finishing artist, I am tasked with difficult corrections and fixes, so the ability to run mocha as an Avid Media Composer plug-in gives me a huge time-saving benefit. Also, the GPU planar tracker speed increase helps me get shots done quicker. Together, the new mocha Pro plug-in and the recent incorporation of mocha technology into Boris Continuum 10 plug-ins are probably the most significant effects tool advancements in recent Media Composer history.
