Mark the person to be followed in the clip. The tracking result is reflected in the keys on the timeline; for example, you can keep a reporter walking and talking in the field centered in a vertical social media cut.
Fine-tune the framing
Correct position and crop values from the keyframe windows. Smooth out the motion by adding and deleting keys on missed frames.
Review the results
Automatic detection may not work perfectly in every scene. Before preparing for broadcast, check the tracking and blur areas in the preview and edit them manually if necessary.
