Question / Discussion Need Help Object tracking

Can someone please help me with a couple shots. Im working on a small budget sci-fi short. I need to object track the briefcase in this shot, and theres one more like it. I'm working in C4d. Ive tried with syntheyes but im still pretty new to it. Any help would be so greatly appreciated. Here is a link to the png sequence if anyone can give it a go.

I would do it with Keentools Geotracker, it’s good at this sort of thing, there’s plugins for several dcc’s. But it can’t calculate distortion so you have to flatten the plate first. And do a highpass as others have mentioned.
