Mocha Pro is a world-renowned software and plugin for planar motion tracking, rotoscoping, object removal, image stabilization, and PowerMesh organic warp tracking.
Essential to visual effects and post-production, Mocha’s tools have played a vital role in every recent Oscar-nominated film for Best Visual Effects. Learn how artists used Mocha Pro to help create Dune’s award-winning VFX.
Meet the Boris FX Hub. It's your home for downloading, installing, and licensing Boris FX tools. Get ready for a seamless, user-friendly experience.
Mocha Pro’s selection tool now offers a falloff option to make organic roto and PowerMesh tracking much easier to manipulate.
Adjust spline edges or clusters of PowerMesh vertices using the same tool, easily adjusting radius and strength of the falloff as required.
Mocha Pro expands its diverse array of spline options with handy new tools to help you manage layer spline workflows.
Rock solid planar tracking is at the heart of all Mocha Pro modules. VFX artists turn to Mocha for its ease of use and reliability when faced with the most difficult shots.
Mocha is versatile, so use it the way you want...as a standalone application, or as a plugin in your favorite host.
Mocha Pro can export tracking, roto shapes, lens calibration and 3D data in a wide variety of formats, or render to file or back to your host.

PowerMesh enables a powerful sub-planar tracking process for visual effects and rotoscoping. Now Mocha Pro can track warped surfaces and organic objects, making it even more powerful for match moves and digital makeup shots.
PowerMesh is simple to use and faster than most optical flow based techniques.
Mocha’s masking workflow features tracked spline tools to speed up shape creation and reduce manual keyframes. Export or render roto to most popular host applications.
X-Splines and Bezier splines with magnetic edge-snapping assistance and Area Brush tool help create detailed mask shapes — without requiring drawing skills.
PowerMesh warped splines deliver even more accurate results when masking organic moving objects like musculature, skin, fabrics, and more.
Mocha Pro’s integrated plugin option delivers an efficient workflow using the host’s media engine. Launch Mocha Pro from within your favorite hosts:
The plugin can be purchased by host. A multi-host plugin license is included with standalone application and Boris FX Suite.
Remove unwanted elements, wires, rigs, tracking marks, and 360 cameras. Generate clean plates for massive time-savings.
The Remove Module is an amazing alternative to traditional clone techniques for removing objects. It automatically detects temporal clean frames to blend and align pixels with little user input. It's like Content Aware on steroids! View Remove Module tutorials
Now Remove objects in locked shots without tracking using the new “Static Scene” option.
Mega Clean Plates! Beyond object removal, this same technology can also be used to create a large, stitched image out of multiple frames.
Render accurate match moves and screen inserts with realistic motion blur or warped distortions. The Insert Module can be driven by PowerMesh and has improved ROI compositing with high quality sub-sampling and blend modes.
Use the Grid Warp tool to bend and deform insert elements to match curved and distorted surfaces.
Use preprocessing to enhance tracking and right-click on the surface to easily modify Inserts for general tracking challenges!
The Stabilize Module can lock down camera motion or stabilize based on select tracking layers. Export stabilized tracking data or render a stabilized clip.
With PowerMesh tracking enabled, the Stabilize Module can produce an inverse-warped flattened surface for paint fixes. Original motion is easily propagated back to the original.
For general editing, a smooth option with selectable anchor frames helps reduce high frequency jitters while maintaining original camera motion. Center, scale or crop stabilized footage based on user-driven tracking.
The Lens Module provides a simple and easy-to-use interface to calibrate the distortion introduced by camera lenses. Remove unwanted lens distortion or match it to composite realistically. Use built-in line detection or splines for calibration.
Save calibration settings for lenses to reuse them or export Lens Calibration data can to read into Nuke’s STMap node or other VFX applications.
Stereo 3D planar tracking, masking, and object removal workflow.
Mocha supports native stereo 3D and 360/VR stereo formats. This unique workflow uses planar tracking analysis on “both eye views” to reduce manual offsets and tedious keyframe work on stereo 3D rotoscoping, tracking, 3D camera solve, and object removal.
Mocha Pro is the ultimate companion for stereo 360° projects in Adobe After Effects & Premiere Pro. Watch Video
Solve 3D match moving capabilities with planar ease.
Unlike feature based camera tracking, Mocha solves the 3D camera based on user-selected planar data. This fast and easy-to-use solution is ideal for set extensions, 3D text, and particle tracking. Additionally the 3D solver can be used to assist other 3D tracking applications on difficult shots with low detail or significant foreground occlusions.
Export to FBX for Flame and Nuke support or install the free AE 3D Track Import plug-in to paste into an After Effects composition.
Award-winning 360° video tools for tracking and masking, horizon stabilization, camera and object removal, nadir patching, and spherical video post.
Now remove static 360 cameras without tracking in Mocha Pro 2023, using the “Static Scene” option!
A native mono and stereo 360° optimized workflow simplifies spherical video post-production challenges. Work across seams with less pre-comps, nesting, or rendering.

Your Machine ID is your Ethernet ID/MAC address. It consists of 6 pairs of numbers and letters A-F. You may see these pairs un-separated (d312a930bc7f), separated by colons (d3:12:a9:30:bc:7f) or separated by dashes (d3-12-a9-30-bc-7f). To find your Machine ID, please follow the steps below:
On Windows - Go to the Start menu, then in the search box type “cmd” and hit Enter. In the cmd window, type “ipconfig /all”. Find the line that reads “Physical Address”. This is your Machine ID.
On Mac - Go to System Preferences > Network and select your active network interface (e.g., Ethernet). From the list on the left. Click on ‘Advanced…’, then on ‘Hardware’. The Machine ID is listed under “MAC Address”.
On Linux - Open a terminal/shell window, and type “ifconfig”. Look for “Hwaddr” under eth0. This is your Machine ID.
It's easy to open Mocha Pro inside Adobe After Effects with a few quick clicks. After you’ve downloaded and installed Mocha Pro onto your machine, open After Effects, add your footage, and select the footage layer you’d like to track. Next, you’ll go to the Effects panel in AE, find “Boris FX Mocha,” and click on “Mocha Pro.” Click the launch Mocha button in the pop up and you’re well on your way.
