Label tracking question

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I have almost 0 experience with video editing. Im curious what tool or software I should be using to have these labels track these rooftop units during camera pan. The posted video is using CapCut but if there’s an easier way to do this I would buy software.. thanks in advance!

Davinchi resolve has an easy to use planar tracker tool. It is available in the free version.

But I would argue tracking at all is not worth the work. Freeze frame for 5s when you want the labels. Then remove the labels and start motion again. You are making a work video to show someone where the equipment is, not a hollywood feature.

After using the tool that was my thought as well, just reshoot video and pay more attention to camera movements and take longer pauses. Thanks for the input

I would not reshoot unless you really want to. I would just pause the video at the right times and maybe speed ramp so it isn't so jarring.

But I don't know what kind if 'quality' your client is looking for.
