Mocha Pro 2025.5 or How to Make AI Do Your Work
Boris FX has just released an update that seems straight out of a science fiction movie 🚀. Mocha Pro 2025.5 now includes a facial recognition system so precise that it could probably find your ex in a crowd before you do. The tool generates automatic elliptical masks, perfect for those moments when you need to blur someone... say, for artistic reasons.
Rotoscoping That No Longer Gives You a Headache
The new Matte Assist ML feature is like having an assistant that does the rotoscoping while you have coffee. It allows converting any spline into a matte or generating splines directly from frames, which means:
- Fewer clicks: because your fingers deserve a vacation
- Greater precision: even for those hairs that always resist
- Improved compatibility: especially useful for After Effects addicts
"Mocha Pro 2025.5 is the digital equivalent of that coworker who does everything perfectly... and makes you look bad"
3D Tracking That's Almost Embarrassing to Use
For 3D lovers, the new Locked Shot option solves fixed-camera scenes as if it were child's play. And if you work with Blender or Cinema 4D, USD object integration will make you wonder how you survived before without it. Batch export in JSON format is that detail you didn't know you needed until you tried it. 🎬
The Price Also Had Some Tracking... Upward
As expected, the update comes with a price increase that will make your accounting department cry. But considering that the software can now:
- Identify faces better than your mother-in-law
- Do rotoscoping while you sleep
- Integrate with virtually any pipeline
Maybe the price is the only thing that still requires human intervention. Now we just need the next update to include a button for "explaining to the client why their idea doesn't work" and we'll have the complete package. Is Boris FX creating tools or replacing artists? The question hangs in the air... along with those renders that never finish. 💻
