Automatic Tracker

Forget keyframes

Remember trying to animate your lens flare frame by frame to match your clip? No more! Just select a region, hit Track and the built-in tracker will do the rest. You can even combine your existing animation with the Track Brightness feature, which automatically dims the entire effect based on your clip's content.
You can also spice up your Apple Motion compositions by switching to the Lights in Group mode, which will instantly place a new flare in each of your 3D lights positions.
