Before we continue, if you can't see the footage, click the ellipsis button and load the street shot from the exercise files. What we need to do is apply motion tracker tags to the motion tracker object. Of the three tags that we're interested in are the planar constraint, position, and vector constraint. You can add them here, but you can also use the motion tracker layout and click it down here. So I'm going to use these here. We click and hold, you can see we got position, vector and planar. So first, I'm going to create a position constraint, and I'll add it here, just clicking onto this null, and that sets up world zero for us. I'm going to click and hold and choose a vector constraint, and what we…
