AI Rotoscoping Made Easy with Mocha | Nontraditional Roto Using Machine Learning

“AI is the end!” — or is it?
From Rossum’s Universal Robots to The Matrix, we’ve been told AI spells doom for creativity. But at Boris FX, we see AI as a force multiplier — empowering artists to create faster, smarter, and more freely.

Learn how to isolate subjects, stylize backgrounds, and blend effects using Mocha’s AI-powered Object Brush and Matte Assist ML — all without tedious manual masking.

Zak demonstrates in Avid Media Composer, but everything works the same in Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and VEGAS Pro.
